HSLC is committed to helping Pennsylvania libraries maximize local funding for library-related products and services. As part of this commitment, HSLC offers a Group Purchasing Program (GPP) for Access Pennsylvania/POWER Library participants* that will provide substantial discounts for products and services purchased with local (not State) funds. Under the Group Purchasing Program interested participants work directly with the selected vendors for ordering, activation, billing, support, and the acquisition of training materials.

Eligibility for the initial discount pricing and subsequent renewals will be based on HSLC’s annual confirmation to the vendor that Access Pennsylvania/POWER Library participation continues.

* A participant is defined as having paid the Technical Support Fee for the participants’ current fiscal year.
