Getting Started with Serials

    Orders with an annual value of $10,000 or less can proceed without a competition. To get started, request a quote from any of FEDLINK’s contracted Serials vendors and send the final quote to [email protected].
  2. Competitions (over $10,000):
    Orders with an annual value over $10,000 require a competition to begin service. To get started, complete the Serials Competition Form and send it to [email protected].
  3. Option Year Renewals (over $10,000, N/A in FY23):
    Only available in FY24-FY27, Option Year Renewals are for members that already completed a new competition with FEDLINK in FY23 or later, and are preparing to renew. To get started, request a renewal quote from your vendor and send it to [email protected].

NOTE: All orders require funding with a current Interagency Agreement (IAA). Submit your Registration Form to [email protected] today to begin the IAA process!
