[PADG:393] license language for long term access



All,
 
Good morning.  Hope you all had a lovely weekend.
 
I was wondering if any of you could forward me a copy of license language your library uses with vendors of electronic resources?  I am wanting to add a paragraph or two to the standard contract UF uses to ensure that we are guaranteed long term access to the files provided on vendor servers that we currently rent/lease/subscribe to/buy. 
 
I am especially interested in language that describes how access to the files is provided after the contract has ended.  Many contracts simply say something like 'provide machine readable copy of the licensed materials..." or something like that.  However, since we are not interested in having 5,000 CD's dumped on our doorstep, I was looking for something a little more explicit...
 
If you have a copy of the license (or even the relevant paragraphs or sections) that you can share with my electronically, that would be great.

Thanks,

Cathy
