NASA/LARC intends to purchase the items from American Institute of Physics Publishing(AIP). AIP Publishing is the only source to offer the required online subscriptions. In order to further LaRC research capability the Library subscribes to numerous engineering and science subscriptions for use in research and the engineering community. It would take substantial duplication of recources and time for another source to provide the required subscription renewal, and this additional expense is not expected to be recovered tough competition.
