Learning Objectives

describe the differential range of costs represented within and among major ebook acquisition options, apply evaluation strategies to assess the value of components of their current ebook collections, better understand the relative cost and value of leased versus owned ebooks

Abstract

Academic libraries face a range of eBook acquisition options including subscription, package purchase, title-by-title purchase, and their hybrids: demand driven acquisition and evidence-based selection. We will examine pricing and usage information from a sample of libraries in an attempt to quantify the relative value provided by each option.
