Yes, we scratched our heads over this one too.
Eventually we requested, and received, permission to burn the data to CD.
Used one of the 5 downloads to do this. Then we put the CD into library
stock. It's catalogued in the OPAC as any other CD would be, and stored on
the shelf in the library alongside the previous year's print versions.

Sent by: An informal open list set up by UKSG - Connecting the

Dear Colleagues,
I'm wondering how libraries are dealing with publications from HESA
(Higher Education Statistics Agency). They've recently moved from print to
electronic only for their annual publications (Staff in Higher Education
Institutions, etc). They are emailing a secure URL from which one can
download the HTML documents. The data is available for one year and allows
a maximum of 5 downloads. It's available to university students and staff,
not walk-ins.
My question for those who have a subscription is: How are you making this
available to your users? We're having trouble figuring out how to work
with the restriction of 5 downloads and how to link it from our catalogue
(we use Innovative Millennium). Any help you can provide would be greatly
appreciated!
Many thanks,
Mary Anne
