To promote openness and fairness among libraries that license scholarly
resources, the University of Alberta Libraries (UAL) *will no longer enter
into vendor contracts that require non-disclosure of pricing information*
or other information that does not constitute a trade secret. All new and
renewed licenses submitted with non-disclosure or confidentiality clauses
will not be signed but henceforth will be referred to the Office of the
Vice-Provost (Learning Services) and Chief Librarian, for final decision.
