James Bennett Support Services and Access
Should a library enquire about or purchase an online product through James Bennett, we will provide general information about access, technical requirements and licensing. Depending on the vendor, on enquiry we may be able to provide the library with a sample copy of any agreement or conditions of purchase. We are also able to set up trial access to various electronic resources for specified periods of time.
James Bennett acts as a sales agent only for online products and the vendor of the product provides post sales support. Licences and/or agreements for online services are negotiated directly with the vendor, with James Bennett acting as a facilitator where applicable.
