The purpose of this research study is to investigate the differences and
similarities of how authorized user licensing terms are interpreted.  We

electronic resources vendors in North America.  We are looking for
respondents who are 18 years of age or older.  Participants should work
with or be aware of how their institution interprets licensing terms.

This survey should take approximately 10 minutes to complete.  You may end
the survey at any time.
