 JISC Collections for Schools - Online Subscription Resources
Hertfordshire Schools Library Service Buying Group
JISC Collections for Schools
Funded by Becta, JISC Collections for Schools is a not-for-profit initiative that enables schools across the UK to benefit from large discounts on high quality online subscription resources. Hertfordshire Schools Library Service has set up a buying group to enable participating schools to gain even greater savings.
New subscribers can join the Hertfordshire buying group at the current price level and can trial and subscribe to resources at any time during the year on a pro-rata basis.
Schools interested in joining the group or wanting to set up trials should contact Tina Warren, JCS Co-ordinator at the Schools Library Service (tel. 01707 281630 or email info@herts-sls.org.uk).
