EPIC
Through the EPIC consortium, New Zealand libraries can get online access to thousands of high-quality journals, magazines, books, audio-visual items, images, and other online content for less money by working together.
What is EPIC?
EPIC (Electronic Purchasing in Collaboration) is the national electronic licensing initiative that makes quality electronic resources available to New Zealanders through libraries who are consortium members.
