| Agenda Model Compatibility & Functionality Collection What next?

| TBX Model Pay for only what percentage of book is read. Checkouts never expire. No holds system, copies unlimited.

| Example Patron checks out a $12 book: Never reads the book = no charge Reads half the book = $6.00 Reads entire book = $12.00 Re-reads the book later = no additional charge Skips around and reads bits = skipped parts not included in percentage read (consider cookbooks)

| If checkouts never expire…? When a patron’s KSLC expires, they cannot: Checkout new books; Continue reading a book they have not finished. Fully read books are accessible in the app indefinitely (if you don’t log out).
