Issues

• Profile should be reviewed & adjusted as needed• Adding ebooks when there is a print version or

another online copy needs to be reviewed• Invoiced for titles that we did not have MARC records

for (small)• Determining the cap for the price of the book• Maintaining sufficient deposit funds to cover the high

use • Access issues

Future

• Expand funding PDA for all subject areas

• EBL model provides access titles (including Springer) otherwise out of reach through SFX (higher cap)

• Unclear how this will impact the role of the bibliographer and selection
