Library shall provide compensation or replacement, in accordance with
established FLARE policies and the judgment of UF as the manager of the
collection on behalf of the Participating Libraries.
c. A limited-access on site reading room will be available by appointment at the
HDF to allow for consultation of large quantities of FLARE materials. Notice of
one business day is required to allow retrieval of requested material.
d. Recommended policies for ILL to Libraries that are not Participating Libraries
will be developed by the SSTF. It is expected that these policies will support
common ILL practices, but may restrict borrowing of bound journals and other
parts of the FLARE collection to Participating Libraries.
8. WITHDRAWAL OF MATERIALS FROM THE FLARE
a. It is the intention of the Participating Libraries that this be a permanent collection.
b. In the long term, as other regional and national storage partners are identified, the
possibility exists that materials may be withdrawn from the FLARE that are
duplicated by these other consortial facilities with whom the Participating
Libraries through the FLARE have a formal agreement. The Participating
Libraries shall approve withdrawals for these or any other circumstances.
9. REVISIONS
a. This MOU may be revised by two-thirds (2/3) of the Participating Libraries in
consultation with the SSTF and in concurrence with UF.
10. TERMINATION
a. HDF was authorized by the Board of Governors of the State University System
(SUS) at the request of the SUS institutions for the benefit of the SUS Libraries.
Therefore, the SUS Libraries are permanent participants in the FLARE and in the
HDF by virtue of their status in the SUS.
b. Any Participating Library not part of an SUS institution desiring to terminate its
involvement in this MOU may give written notice to the UF Designated
Representative at least 6 months prior to the beginning of the next fiscal year.
Any such termination shall be effective only if the party desiring termination has
fulfilled all of its obligations under this MOU as of the effective date of
termination. Ownership of materials deposited into the FLARE will survive
termination as required by Sections 4.a and 4.b. Continued access to the collection
and related metadata will survive termination and be governed by Sections 6.c
and 7.d or by a separate agreement with UF on behalf of the Participating
Libraries.
11. MISCELLANOUS
a. This MOU shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the
State of Florida exclusive of its conflict of laws provisions.
b. The originating library releases UF and the FLARE for any liability with regard to
possession, use or loan of the materials.
Approved and agreed to by:
[Acknowledged by each Library Dean/Director: Approved by each Provost:]
