Sage Premier, 2012 NERL license. | For transferred titles, Sage will try to retain continuing access or negotiate access with new publisher. Per ConsortiaManager and section XIV of Sage license we should have PA back to 1999. PA is based on current license agreement which can affect titles transferring out. 1/9/18 |
SpringerNature, 2018-2020 license. | Perpetual access may be retained online, transferred to new provider, or provided offline. Sage appears to be sending files to ExLibris causing EL to delete PA ops in various targets; thus PA for Sage will not be retained in SFX. 9/18 |
