Comments
We have a good working relationship with OVID over the years.  There has been stability with our rep, Tom Nufer, for a great number of years.  Wolters Kleuwer owns UpToDate  but they operate seperatly from OVID.  Though I (LZ) do not use the search interface as much as Dan and Sonya for searching, most of the items in my literature searches default to OVID's full text Journal collection.  I (LZ) am not a fan of the eBooks in OVID as many of them are dated.

Special steps for renewal / cancelation
This resource is purchased through the consortium.  The lower pricing that we receive for these products was grandfathered in due to the long term relationship we have had with OVID.  If we cancel any components and later wish to have one of those components back, we will be quoted the higher current price rather than our grandfathered price.

Comments
This database is most used by the emergency medicine residency program, but there aer features / tools included with the resource that many of the residents may not be aware of.  Marketing these tools more robustly should boost use.
