From: Valerie Yaw <[log in to unmask]> Date: Mon, 20 Apr 2015 17:38:36 -0400 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 [log in to unmask] Best wishes, Valerie Valerie Yaw Senior Marketing Manager Books at JSTOR [log in to unmask] -----Original Message----- From: "Keeping, Dianne" <[log in to unmask]> Date: Fri, 17 Apr 2015 13:34:46 +0000 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? Dianne -----Original Message----- From: Valerie Yaw <[log in to unmask]> Date: Thu, 16 Apr 2015 15:01:11 -0400 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.
