Don’t forget to take advantage of discounts offered to libraries via Tech Soup Stock, a division of Tech Soup. Depending on type of your library and your 501c status, you may be eligible to take advantage of heavy discounts on over 240 products from, Adobe, Microsoft, Symantec just to mention a view. For example, if you are a public library, you can get Vista Business Upgrade through this program for $10 which is significant savings over the retail cost of $299. How about for school and public libraries, a 10 license Norton Anti Virus pack for $35 total? Yes, in some cases, you do have to jump through some hoops to get the discount but if the discounts are as much as 90%, it just might be worth it. The program can be found directly via http://www.techsoup.org/stock/default.asp
