Renewals are less stressful, too!
In partnership with select publishers — including Springer, Wiley, Taylor & Francis, Sage, and others — EBSCO has developed
a collection management tool designed to significantly increase the efficiency of your current e-package renewal process.

renewal of your licensed e-package collections, reducing the process time from weeks to hours. This tool also gives you the
option to renew earlier with estimated pricing, allowing you to complete renewals in a time frame that is more in line with the
regular subscription renewal process using pricing based on your contract terms with each publisher.
