Discussion: Adapting to Changes in eBook Acquisition and Publishing Models

Published on ‎18-Mar-2025 10:37 AM by OCLC staff · Community manager | Updated on ‎2-Apr-2025 03:20 PM

The landscape of eBook publishing and purchasing is undergoing significant shifts, with changes to single-purchase models, demand-driven acquisition (DDA) programs, evidence-based acquisition (EBA) models, and marketplace platforms. These developments have raised concerns among libraries as they assess the impact on their eBook collections, acquisition strategies, and workflows. How are these industry-wide changes affecting your institution? What challenges or adjustments have you encountered in your workflows and collection management? Join us for a discussion on how libraries are navigating these evolving models and what responses might be needed from the library community.

Panelists:

  • Kay Johnson, Radford University
  • Elizabeth McHugh, University of the Highlands and Islands
