    Dear Eric,
     
    It was a pleasure speaking with you last week. As discussed, please
    find below information on SimplyMap, an exciting new online service
    created as a result of demand by academic librarians for easy-to-use
    demographic, business and marketing data.
     
    Developed by Geographic Research ( www.geographicresearch.com
    <http://www.geographicresearch.com/>), SimplyMap allows students to
    access thousands of variables, create professional-quality thematic maps
    and reports and export information to Excel, PDF, Microsoft Word and
    more. Please find attached a SimplyMap product brochure as well as a
    link below to access our most recent variable list.
     
    SimplyMap is priced from around $8,500 per year (based on simultaneous
    users) and includes IP authentication, remote access and usage reports.
    It also features nation-wide data in all geographies including ZIP
    codes, census tracts and block-groups.
     
    My colleague has been invited to demonstrate SimplyMap to the Statewide
    California Electronic Library Consortium (SCELC) Product Review
    Committee meeting at the Westmont College library in Montecito, CA on
    Friday, July 6th. Since he will be in the area, I'd like to know if he
    can also visit and give you and your colleagues a brief demonstration
    the same day. *Please let me know if you are available anytime in the
    afternoon of July 6th to have a quick look at this popular database.
    *
    Thanks again and I look forward to hearing from you soon.
     
    Regards,
