Licenses

Licenses are necessary for Models 2 and 3 of shared acquisitions.  In Model 2 and 3, the Chancellor's Office will create the negotiated license to attach to the ECC e-resource in the NZ.  In Model 3, the library will locate the Opt-in e-collection in the NZ and order the e-collection and create the Purchase Order in the local Alma instance.  The license and price information will be copied from the NZ negotiated license and appear in the local instance when ordering.
