1. Call Me Old Fashioned Common Expectations for E-Book Publishers or E-book Aggregators in a Consortium Context Or… Why OhioLINK Has Focused on Direct Deals with Publishers

2. Lessons from E-Journals There is only 1 budget regardless of format – cannot afford to buy things twice Prices and terms must reflect needs for access, archiving, preservation, etc. Group purchase must reflect dramatic increase in content/access per dollar spent Group purchase must strategically fit with physical R Sharing system Translation – O-S-F-A group purchase must be a Strategic Purchase – yes a Big Deal !

3. Problems with Aggregators and Some Publishers – so far Not always the new titles No predictability Not comprehensive Sold separately from print No DDP option for print Bad O-S-F-A Consortium pricing models Limits on use – bad terms No Local Load on separate platform Could not use their platform with separate deals

4. Success with Some Publishers – so far Comprehensive and predictable title collection scope Can separate and define old from new Problem – why is it OK to get back files years free with e-journals and not with e-books? Pricing based on historical group annual spending and unit averages DDP prices via direct/primary book vendor Can locally load with necessary rights

5. OhioLINK Status ABC-CLIO Reference Oxford OSO – 13 disciplines now + 2 more Oxford DRS Sage Reference Gale VRS – their controlled imprints Springer Wiley/Blackwell Elsevier And others…

6. And finally – a quiz Name the Book Publisher with these e-book terms Has anyone agreed to these terms?
