The price is negotiable depending on the size and location of the institution. 2. Can the subscribing institutions pick what information they have access to rather than pay for the entire database? By January 2017, they will be able to pick specific eBooks or EJournals rather than the full package. 3. Is there material in French? Some books are translated into the major international languages, including English, French and Portuguese especially for the basic medical topics. 4. What software is required for subscribers? There is no software download required. An institution undergoes training to ensure that it has the necessary hardware to run the databases and there is post training support. The database is integrated into the IP address so that users can access it straight from their website using their institutional username and password. 14
