The ZBW Consortium manages consortial licences with the Electronic Resource Management System LAS:eR. Many libraries and consortium-leading institutions use LAS:eR cooperatively to manage licences and information sources.
Libraries and information institutions can register for and use a LAS:eR participant account without costs.
Advantages:
The platform offers a one-stop-site where you can
- administer your participation in existing consortia,
- curate your own institution-related data, such as invoicing address, IP range, contact information,
- get information about new consortial products or extension of licensing periods for active consortial licences.
LAS:eR is operated by North Rhine-Westphalian Library Service Centre (hbz). Registration and account release are handled at the hbz. Read more on the hbz wiki pages.
We are happy to answer initial questions about using LAS:eR and can arrange contact with the hbz.
