In the package that Burgundy provides us though eIFL negotiations we have found valuable content and publishers that we never knew about before. The consortium has saved lots of time and efforts thanks to the packages of databases that Burgundy provides us.

Burgundy has been very helpful in helping us to understand the particular interests of national and local consortia in acquiring digital content. This has enabled us to design specific approaches to access, business models and pricing that work well for our library partners. We think that this enables a level of collaboration that would be otherwise difficult to achieve.

SPIE relies on talented and professional agencies such as Burgundy to give advice and guidance on how best to construct offers for library consortia. My experience is that Burgundy is looking for a win-win situation for both the library and the publisher - and that makes for the best in any negotiation.
