Subject: Worth Global Style Network - potential new Chest Agreement
Dear Paul,
Please pass
this on to any colleagues in associated areas as you feel are relevant.
As a result
of recent wishes we are seeking wider feedback on requirements for a Chest
agreement for Worth Global Style Network. WGSN is the leading global
service providing online research, trend analysis and news to the fashion,
design and style industries. This resource from WGSN used to be freely
available but has become a chargeable resource. If there is sufficient
demand we will seek a consortia arrangement that should lower the price and
gain better terms.
We have set
up a survey to collect information from librarians and academics that will help
us to understand what the level of demand for an agreement and to collect
information about any existing subscription arrangements that you have. We
would like to hear from both existing and potential subscribers.
Feedback that
we collect from this survey will be vital in supporting our negotiation for a consortia
agreement for this resource. The survey is secure and the information you
provide will be treated in total confidence.
Please take a
few minutes to complete the survey whether or not you are interested in an
agreement – click here to complete the WGSN
Survey
We will keep
you informed on the outcome of the survey and any progress with the negotiation
for an agreement.
Kind regards
Aimee
