"We have experienced WWIS as a good supplier of subscription products to the South African academic library market. They provide quality service at a competitive price, supported by friendly, knowledgeable staff. "


Yolisa Soul, University Librarian, University of Fort Hare

"Subscriptions for the University of Fort Hare Library are handled by WWIS, and the Library is completely satisfied with the highly professional service provided.

WWIS has a thorough understanding of the Higher Education sector in South Africa, and tailors their services to the requirements of the individual institutions. Their awareness of the disparities between the requirements of their customers, understanding of the budget cycles involved, and their research and knowledge of the programmes offered, makes them uniquely suited for this purpose and extremely competent.

WWIS arranges competitive price deals when negotiating with overseas markets, and is always willing to walk the extra mile to facilitate their customers. They are fully conversant with the modern technologies required in the Higher Education sector, and provide prompt and accurate services.

WWIS epitomises Ubuntu, and the U.F.H. is happy to testify to their professionalism. "


Robert Pearce (On behalf of NMMU LIS staff), Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University Library

"Thank you WWIS for fast, excellent and competent customer services, spiced with that warm personal touch and smile - always willing to go the extra kilometre! Best wishes with the launch of your website"


Huibre Lombard, University of the Free State

"The UFS LIS has been doing business with WWIS from its inception. The trust we put in the organisation proved to be correct and we reaped excellent benefits from the partnership. Our experience until now has been that they are extremely supportive, innovative and quick to respond to queries. Their products are affordable and they are willing to enter into discussions in times of need, and where possible adapt or customise their offers accordingly or discuss concerns with publishers. They are fair in their dealings and flexible in negotiations. They do not only deliver normal services of a very high standard, but goes the extra mile and create tools to make it easier for the client to make comparisons and draw conclusions. WWIS delivers services beyond merely that of a vendor. The value that they add to normal services is highly appreciated."


Kgabi Chuene, University of Limpopo

"The WWIS service is super. They are not only selling but advising on the best service. They give one an impression that they are not in there for profit but to ensure that the LIS user community are supported effectively in their search for information and thus get value for money. Communicating with them is like clicking on the computer mouse. You click and the next second the response is there.

I would advise Librarians to go WWIS way if they want to gain respect from their users."
