Publisher Negotiations Start early!
Negotiations are ongoing
Currently working with 42 publishers with room for additions
Not all publishers participate in PDA, consortia or otherwise
Start early!
Lessons Learned
Start contacting publishers early in the process.
Be prepared to re-re-re-negotiate.
There is no one-size-fits-all model for consortial PDA.
Try to establish main points of contact early in the process, both on the vendor side and the consortium side.
Consortia and vendors need to account for specialized reports
