Exclusive Magazine offer from EBSCO + Webinar Invitation

WiLS partner EBSCO is offering WiLS members an exciting, exclusive deal on their Magazine Archives!

Do you have missing, lost or damaged issues of important magazines in your collection? Do you have a need to free up valuable space for reallocation to study rooms or collaborative work spaces? Do you have strong programs in history, gender studies, ethnic studies, or sociology? Would they benefit from a comprehensive archival collection of Time, Life, Maclean’s or The Atlantic?

If so, consider purchasing a magazine archive via WiLS’ exclusive offer. Your library could save as much as 50% off of the list price. The more you buy, the more you save! Even your previous purchases of archives may count toward greater discounts! And the deal gets even better. For this offer only, WiLS is reducing our fees by half! Members will pay only 2% WiLS fee on any EBSCO Magazine Archive purchase.
