Presented by: Library Journal and ER&L
Event Date & Time: Wednesday, December 17th, 2014, 3:00 PM – 4:00 PM ET / 12:00 PM – 1:00 PM PT
Data is being used to make quick ebooks acquisitions decision changes at a single library and being used in scale to better understand ebook usage globally.
Ying Zhang will present on a study undertaken at the University of Central Florida to determine the best ROI for their library ebook acquisitions models. Michael Levine-Clark will discuss a large-scale study showing trends across over 10,000 libraries and hundreds of thousands of ebooks. A study of this scale allows us to show broad patterns of usage and establish benchmarks that should prove useful for libraries and consortia for local planning.
Speakers
Michael Levine-Clark - Associate Dean for Scholarly Communication and Collections Services at University of Denver
Ying Zhang – Acquisitions Librarian, University of Central Florida
Moderator
Bonnie Tijerina - Fellow, Data & Society Research Institute
