Here is my suggestion of a low-risk policy for Niles:-
- Introduce site licenses for academic institutions, starting at a lower
threshold than at present (currently I believe it is 50+ copies yet we
only wanted 40 copies for our entire site)
- Introduce a scheme whereby members of an organisation that has a site
license can buy copies of EndNote Plus for their own use for about 50 ukp
per copy (direct from suppliers - as an institution we don't have the
resources to make a bulk purchase of EndNote to sell on - and make sure it
is easy to get a copy this way - don't put people off)
More institutions would adopt EndNote as a standard and there would be a
huge increase in sales to students and academics. Because the really big
discounts would only apply to members of any organisation taking out a
site license there would be little threat to existing profit margins.
