Group Subscriptions

What is a group subscription?

A group subscription gives publication access to multiple individuals within your organization — via either print or electronic delivery — at a substantial discount off the regular rate.

What are the benefits of having a group subscription?

Group subscriptions offer a cost-effective way to give multiple recipients access to the information they need without the delay of the routing slip. Group subscriptions:

save time by simplifying the task of disseminating the information to those who need it in a timely fashion
save money over the cost of individual subscriptions
assure access to the information in compliance with all applicable copyright laws

What is included in a group subscription?

Group subscriptions can be tailored to your specific needs. They can be designed for groups of individuals, selected offices, whole departments, or your entire firm. A group subscription can be delivered directly to designated individuals in either print or electronic format, or your firm can be licensed to post issues to your company's intranet.

What is the price of a group subscription?

Because they are tailored to the specific needs of your organization, group subscriptions are priced on a case-by-case basis. Pricing is based on two main factors: number of recipients and "area" being served (e.g., single office, entire department, firmwide).

How are group subscriptions delivered?

A group subscription can be delivered in either electronic (searchable PDF) or print format, to individuals in a single office or to multiple locations. Options include:

email delivery directly to your end users
email delivery to a central email address for internal distribution to designated end users
posting of issues to your firm's intranet with access as granted by the group subscription or licensing agreement
mailing print copies directly to multiple individuals within your organization
mailing print copies to a single address for internal distribution within your organization

Electronically distributed group subscriptions may also include a print subscription for the library.

What are the rules governing group subscriptions that are distributed electronically?

Electronic group subscription recipients are required to sign an electronic subscription agreement affirming that they will not make copies of or forward the electronic version.
