We get the Bowker BIP (www.booksinprint.com) at Western Kentucky University.
We are currently paying $5,525 per year for a single-user access, although who
knows how that will go up with our next renewal. One thing about the BIP from
Bowker is that it is more current than the ones from other vendors. The other
agregators that license BIP have a 6-month embargo period, while Bowker
doesn't have any embargo whatsoever. We have been very pleased with our
subscription, and would recommend it.
