Dear Dianne,

Thanks for the positive feedback. We are working with publishers whose
ebooks sold as single-user to move them to the unlimited model. To
date we have confirmed that almost 90% of single-user titles can be
upgraded to the unlimited-user model at no cost to the libraries that
purchased them. For the small number of titles that we are not able to
offer in the unlimited model, libraries have been opting for refunds
or selecting alternate books. We've been reaching out to all
institutions with single-user books to discuss this in detail, and
encourage anyone with questions to contact us at

Best wishes,

This is good news. Will the single user ebooks that libraries have
already purchased from JSTOR continue to have limited access, or will
they be converted to the new DRM free model?

With apologies for cross-posting…

JSTOR is pleased to announce that all titles offered in its ebook
program are now available exclusively in a DRM-free, unlimited-user
model. More than 25,000 titles from top scholarly publishers are
available in this model, which provides participating institutions
with the following benefits:

·         Simultaneous online access for an unlimited number of users

·         Unlimited DRM-free chapter downloads that never expire

·         Unlimited printing and copy/paste

·         No requirement for the user to log in or use special software

·         Interlibrary loan for all ebook chapters

Ebooks work just like the journals on JSTOR, ensuring an easy,
familiar experience for faculty and students who already use the
platform for scholarly research. The ebooks are fully integrated with
journals on JSTOR, including cross-searchability and links to related
content.
