Ebook Team
Charge and membership
Charge
-
Leverage the existing relationship with YBP to create an entirely new Ebook Consortial Purchasing Model that allows consortium-wide access to titles purchased by individual member libraries.
- Focus on developing and implementing the new model, and on addressing access, collection development, financial, and technical issues outlined in the Ebook Task Force report of June 12, revised August 5, 2009. It is expected that the Team will work with the Collaborative Technical Services Team charged with developing technical services operations that support collaborative cataloging/processing for Ebook collections.
- Develop a funding model to support the program in an equitable manner.
- Develop a model that prioritizes selection in a way that benefits the most members possible.
- Evaluate the project to determine ongoing viability.
It is broadly understood that Alliance-wide access to ebooks purchased through this program
will require full participation, including financial support, by all
Alliance member libraries. We expect that the membership's shared commitment to collaborative strengthening of the Alliance collection will enable the Team to craft a program all members can support.
