many times as you like and own them forever

size of your collection

 Discounts of up to 50% on title-by-title price
 All books purchased with perpetual access
Patron Selection Plans - Overview
 Selection by the patron – ALL e-books purchased are
used.
 An e-book purchasing option that allows libraries to
make five times the amount of content available for
patron discovery
 Create profiles reviewed prior to activation ensuring an
in-scope collection
 Free MARC records
 Easy administration
Patron Selection Plans – The Process
 Develop a subject or collection profile with our
Collections Consultant.
 Use this profile to shortlist MyiLibrary e-books that
meet your requirements.
 Remove titles that you already own or don’t want to
consider.
 Load these titles into your catalogue for your patrons to
use.
Patron Selection Plans – Benefits
 Make five times the value of your plan available to your
patrons, whilst controlling the content that they can
select from, avoiding non-relevant material
 Involve your patrons in the decision making process
and greatly increase the value of your catalogue
without the cost of purchase
 Ensure that the e-books you buy are the ones that will
be used. Research shows that titles purchased in this
way are used SEVEN times as much as other titles
Patron Selection Plans
What constitutes an actual e-book purchase?
 A purchase is triggered when a book is viewed more
than once. A “view” is any time the book is accessed in
the MyiLibrary reader. To avoid “accidental” views, the
MyiLibrary interface allows patrons the opportunity to
review the book description and table of contents prior
to viewing the actual text. Viewing the book description
and table of contents do not count toward the “view”
allowance.

How is the library billed for these purchases?
 The library usually sets aside a fixed amount of
funds for MyiLibrary e-book purchases over a
renewable program period of six months to one
year. This can be done through a deposit
account or through a dedicated purchase
order. The library will receive monthly
statements indicating which titles have been
purchased and the amount drawn out of the
deposit or billed against the purchase order.
Patron Selection Plans
How concerned should I be about spending
my funds too quickly?
 Our experience shows that patrons continue to
access only relevant content and don’t spend a
great deal of time “browsing the shelves”
resulting in irrelevant purchases. As a result,
the budget allocated to e-books stays focused
on appropriate and relevant content,
regardless of the timeframe in which titles are
purchased.
Patron Selection Plans
But what if I still reach my funding threshold
prior to the end of the program?
 The plan acts as a library budgeting tool. The
program parameters do not allow a library to
spend beyond the amount allocated by the
institution. The library is allowed to refresh or
suspend the account if they wish. If
suspended, only the non-purchased titles will
be deactivated until the library wishes to renew
the program.
Patron Selection Plans - Flowchart

and keep content relevant
