SUNY Purchase College intends to renew their database library subscriptions from Lyrasis/WALDO consortium pursuant to its authority under section 163 (3) (vi), which authorizes the purchase of commodities from a consortium or comparable entity in lieu of using a centralized contract and without a formal competitive process. We recognize that this is a specific database for University/College Libraries and due to the unique consortia agreement and pricing, no competitive bid will be held.

If an interested vendor believes they can provide these services in their entirety, they must contact the appropriately designated campus contact in this advertisement within 15 business days of this notice.
