[ COST ] [Frequently Asked Questions] [Terms and Conditions]

For the most part, an Institutional Online Subscription authorizes use at a localized site. A "site" is an organizational unit, and may be academic or nonacademic. For organizations located in more than one city, each city office is considered a different site. For organizations within the same city that are administered independently, each office is considered a different site.

For example, each campus in the State University of New York system is considered a different site, and each branch or office of UpJohn Laboratories is considered a different site.

Individuals who are not BIR members may subscribe at the Individual (Non-Member) level, at the Institutional level, or may want to consider applying for BIR membership.
