These factors have empowered the library in its dealings with other organizations such as stakeholders, suppliers, universities, etc. The centralization of the purchasing and the librarian network has made this library strong enough to deal with the economic recession and budgetary problems.enBibliotecas VirtualesSuscripcionesLicenciasNegociacionesClausulasMedical Subject Headings::Information Science::Information Science::Information Centers::Libraries::Libraries, MedicalMedical Subject Headings::Information Science::Information Science::Information Centers::Libraries::Libraries, DigitalMedical Subject Headings::Health Care::Health Services Administration::Organization and Administration::Professional Practice::Practice Management::Practice Valuation and PurchaseMedical Subject Headings::Disciplines and Occupations::Social Sciences::Economics::Economic Recessionconference presentationopen access
