Invitation to participate in NESLi2 for Small and Medium Sized
Publishers: a new opportunity for publishers
NESLi2, the UK's national online journal initiative for higher and
further education, is one of the most successful strands of JISC
Collections activity.
Based on the success of these negotiations and in order to extend the
range of publishers and journals covered by NESLi2, JISC Collections is
launching a new initiative - NESLi2 SMP (NESLi2 for Small and Medium
sized Publishers).
Through NESLi2 SMP JISC Collections welcomes offers for e-journal
agreements from all publishers not covered by the NESLi2 negotiations.
NESLi2 SMP provides a set of criteria and a template for offers,
(available from: http://www.nesli2.ac.uk/nesli2smp.htm) against which
e-journal offers will be evaluated. NESLi2 SMP aims to provide both
publishers and institutions with a simple framework for the submission,
promotion and evaluation of e-journals offers and a route to market for
those publishers whose offerings may otherwise be overlooked.
Successful proposals will then be promoted to the JISC community via the
normal NESLi2 channels.
The closing date for submission of proposals in 2007 is Friday 21st
October.
