Dear Christine:

We are also looking at this service; the EBSCO reps were here this morning.  We would appreciate hearing from those who already use the service.

Subject: [SERIALST] Ebsconet Usage Consolidation

We are considering subscribing to the Ebsconet Usage Consolidation service.  Are any of you already subscribed and using it?  If so, do you like it?

We need  to save money by loading the usage for some of the platforms ourselves.  I thought it might be easier to tackle platforms that have only a few of our subscription titles in them.  How hard is it to set up Usage Loading for publishers/vendors that you only have a few subscriptions from?

Is anyone switching Usage Consolidation service vendors to or from Ebsco's product?

Thanks in advance,

Christine Troutman
