From: "Jim O'Donnell" <[log in to unmask]> Date: Sat, 21 Jan 2017 07:35:25 -0700 Oxford Press publishes a series of useful and smart paperbacks under the "Very Short Introductions" rubric: 502 volumes at last count on topics like: Buddhist Ethics, Cancer, Catholicism, Chaos, Children's Literature, Chinese Literature, Choice Theory, Christian Art, Citizenship, Civil Engineering, Classics, Clausewitz, Climate They sell for about $8 each on Amazon. A license for digital access for a campus might cost as much as a complete print set I'm guessing. They're very well done and offer an appreciably-better-than-Google introduction to a wide variety of subjects. But I worry that they would disappear into our OPAC and be essentially invisible. I'd be tempted to buy the full print set and shelve them together in a visible place: interesting if that were a way to make the print version get more use than digital would. So I write now to ask if anyone knows of library experience promoting this series, either digital or print. Jim O'Donnell Arizona State University
