Eduserv Athens at MLA
I just saw a technology showcase from Eduserv Athens on access management of electronic resources. I am so interested in the product that I am going to be seriously looking at it when I return from MLA. To read more about Eduserv Athens at MLA check out my post on the Krafty MLA 2006 Blog. My only complaint was they didn't present this sooner at MLA, this is the last day and the slowest day inside the vendor's exhibit hall and I think a lot more people would have benefitted from seeing it. Additionally, I wish they would have listed Eduserv Athens as a vendor in the vendor listings and perhaps had a see also reference to STATRef, because Teton Data Systems (the people behind STATRef) are the ones who are bringing Eduserv Athens from the UK to the US. I think a lot of people missed seeing them in the vendor exhibit hall because all they "saw" was the STATRef booth.

Thanks for the positive comments about Athens! It really gives us a boost to hear stuff like that. And I agree with you completely: we did a terrible job getting the word out. I have forwarded your comments on to the team who are responsible for championing Athens within the company. Please let me know (eevans@tetondata.com) if there is anything I can do to help you with your evaluation, or with the STAT!Ref in general.
Cheers,

StatRef was always busy and I never did talk with anybody from their table. I had no idea about the Athens product at all and was there for three days.
