HAN for library networks — efficient and compliant with licensing requirements
Smooth operation of a system in compliance with licensing requirements
Resources that are equally relevant to all members of a network, such as central databases or e-journal packages, can be managed centrally from a single location on behalf of all participating institutions. This reduces the workload for all participating libraries.
Licensing is flexible: each institution can be allocated its own number of licences, and usage can be closely monitored.
This ensures that everyone involved can keep track of how online resources are being used at their site, whilst also meeting the content providers’ requirements regarding access control and licence compliance.
