Would anyone be willing to give me a ball-park figure for the annual cost of Libguides? I'm not looking for any commercial secrets, I'd just like to get a feel for whether it's three, four, or five (or six?) figures, and whether it's a flat fee or headcount-based. Happy to take replies off-list, and I won't blab. Thanks.

Subject: [lis-e-resources] Libguides
Hi,
We are looking at Libguides in part to provide a replacement to our Metalib A-Z list of databases, but also with a view to using it for study guides. So, some questions:
If I make a change in my central list of databases (e.g. my A-Z list of databases), e.g. by updating a specific database URL, would other instances of this database URL in subject Libguides be automatically updated?
Are there any contexts in which this wouldn't work?
Are there any downsides to Libguides or do you have any advice to offer?
Many thanks,
Sharon
