UN/PW access to IMF databases Carr, Patrick 03 Jan 2012 20:59 UTC

My library maintains subscriptions to a couple of IMF databases (Direction of Trade Statistics and International Financial Statistics). Due to a combination of factors (an extreme price increase instated by IMF, library budget cuts, and problematic license terms), we recently switched from IP-authenticated access to UN/PW-authenticated access to these databases. Are there any libraries out there that currently subscribe to IMF databases thru UN/PW-authenticated access and that would be willing to answer a few questions I have regarding how you manage that access? If so, I've be very appreciative you'd be willing to contact me off-list.

Thanks!
Patrick
