Subscription Agency
The OTS Contractor in most cases uses a subscription agency to coordinate and consolidate
subscriptions and journals (except membership subscriptions). However, if the Purchasing
Department determines that the subscription is not available from the agency or
it is more cost effective to order directly from the publisher, a separate order
is written.
