ZB MED negotiates and offers consortia throughout Germany. By negotiating consortia we enable scientists to access research-relevant literature under appropriate conditions. The offers are aimed at libraries, departmental research institutions as well as hospitals.
We are currently managing 17 ongoing consortia, including 3 Gold OA publication agreements, 6 Read & Publish agreements and 8 other licence offers, such as software and databases for hospitals and scientific institutions. A total of 365 participating institutions from Germany benefit from the negotiated products. We have prepared an overview of the financial savings for 2023 and 2024. A forecast of the savings for 2025 is also listed there.
The quality and service of our work is very important to us. Would you like to give us feedback or criticism on our consortium products?
Then please send us an e-mail to FeedbackKonsortium@zbmed.de stating the product in question. We will collect these and discuss them with the publishers and providers.
