University of California, Berkeley Library RFP# 003937-Mar2026 Shelf-Ready Services for Monographs

awarding

Closed

UC Berkeley Library is seeking qualified supplier(s) to provide Shelf-Ready Services for a number of our non-English language acquisitions. The Library envisions that it would have its acquisitions delivered to the supplier at the point of purchase in order to expedite the supplier’s ability to process the materials, creating catalog records and preparing materials (security strip, labels, barcode) for shelving once they arrive at the UCB Library. Multiple contract awards may be made to accommodate the breadth of UC demand. Bidders are encouraged to submit their proposals for all languages and regions/countries or only for specific languages for which it can provide competitive and optimal Shelf-Ready Services. The awarded Supplier(s) will be placed on UC’s approved supplier list and afforded the opportunity to provide shelf-ready services at contracted levels of service and price. The University reserves the right to solicit other companies or pursue other means to accomplish their objectives when contracted suppliers are unable to fulfill UC’s needs. Because there is no mandatory use policy at UC, nothing in this RFP or awarded agreement(s) as the result of this RFP will be construed to prevent UC from entering into similar agreements with any third parties including, without limitation, suppliers that may be in competition with Supplier.
