It will include discussion of Patron Driven Acquisition (PDA) as well as next generation approaches to patron driven acquisition – “Smart PDA.” The session will cover collection development approaches, platform and device changes & possibilities, as well as user experiences & expectations. It will explore the many options that can be made available to libraries to optimize their approaches to eBook discovery, usage and overall value of their collections.

On a related note, EBSCO is excited about the recent change to remove all fees and markups from eBooks on EBSCOhost, becoming the only library eBook aggregator to have no costs at all beyond the publisher suggested list price for an eBook or Audiobook. Please join us to learn more on this and other related topics.
