A library trial is an invaluable opportunity for institutions to explore a wealth of scholarly content allowing librarians and decision-makers to evaluate the resources' relevance and impact on their academic community. 

During the trial period, users have unrestricted access to a vast array of journals, databases, and other educational materials, enabling a thorough assessment of the content's suitability for their institution's needs. 

Following the trial, institutions can make informed decisions about incorporating these resources into their library collections, thus enhancing the research and learning experience for students and faculty alike.

Sage offers these trials on the following products:

Sage Journals

Sage Knowledge

Please note, only librarians, procurement managers, purchasing decision makers or similar can sign off on setting up an IP trial at an institution.
