Resource Sharing Model Clause

In response to requests by ºÚÁÏÍø Consortium members to increase the number of publishers that allow resource sharing, ºÚÁÏÍø Procurement, in conjunction with the Australian Libraries Copyright Committee (ALCC) and CAVAL, commenced a project to develop a model clause to supply to publishers.
