The Core Suite infographic [3] outlines the value full members achieve through the Core Suite, and accompanies annual Core Suite invoices.
The Core Suite is a multi-vendor package of nine resources licensed by all eHLbc member institutions.
We are currently in year 4 of the four-year Core Suite subscription term, from April 1, 2018 to March 31, 2022. This year, eHLbc successfully negotiated reduced annual increases for the Core Suite resources. EBSCO, Ovid, and APA have agreed to reduce the overall combined annual increase from 4.10% to 2.83%. All full members will benefit from these savings on top of the consortial discount.
