The Nassau BOCES School Library System (NBSLS) provides a variety of subscription-based online resources to component school districts. NBSLS will incorporate this service as a component of its Library Automation and Resource Sharing Service. NBSLS can provide the greatest cost savings for libraries, complete with current information from vendors, and statewide negotiated pricing.
