VIVA Request For Proposal, Nursing and Social Sciences (January 2015)

This RFP solicited sealed proposals from qualified sources to enter into a contract through competitive negotiations to provide nursing resources and social sciences resources for the Virtual Library of Virginia (VIVA). At the time of the posting, VIVA subscribed to CINAHL, the Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins journals, EconLit, PAIS, and Sociological Abstracts.
