Established in 1985, the North American Serials Interest Group, Inc. (NASIG) is an independent organization that promotes communication, information, and continuing education about serials and the broader issues of scholarly communication. NASIG welcomes anyone interested in the serials information chain. Inspired by the United Kingdom Serials Group (UKSG), NASIG held its first conference at Bryn Mawr College in June 1986. The annual conference, usually held in late May or June, offers a premier opportunity to meet others representing the diverse interests of the serials community and to hear speakers who are on the cutting edge of scholarly communication.

In the rodeo of the electronic world, libraries and agents need to rope in the information to acquire electronic material.  In many cases, you just can't look up pricing on the internet or in a vendor's system.  Quotations from the publishers are sometimes required and for big deals, publisher sales managers get involved with license negotiations. Consortia are now a major presence in negotiating the big deals.  This workshop will discuss pricing options and issues encountered in this serials pricing roundup.  Come join the discussion led by an agent and a consortium negotiator.
