MHEC, the Massachusetts Higher Education Consortium, is a collaborative community of public institutions in New England, including higher education, municipalities, K-12 schools, libraries, and other educational non-profits. Through their group purchasing cooperative, they leverage collective buying power to create publicly-bid contracts and share best practices, ultimately helping you achieve greater efficiency and cost savings.
All ordering, shipping, and invoicing will be from and to individual libraries. Libraries should contact vendors to note on their accounts they will be ordering through MHEC contracts. Failure to do so may result in libraries not receiving the correct discounts. Carefully notice exclusions and details for individual vendors. Since it is impossible to provide the details of all vendor processing and shipping terms, it is incumbent on libraries to verify these when setting up vendor accounts.
