[Wactclc-alma] [EXTERNAL] - Fw: EBSCO eBook Open Access Monograph Collection

[Traci Taylor]

Hi Amy,

I did a couple of sorts (language and publication date) in the list that I sent out. Here is what I found.

Out of 2666 titles, there are 1514 English titles, 1127 German titles and a handful of other languages (French, Spanish, Italian, etc.); 1191 titles are the most recent 5 years (2016-2021). I haven't counted how many of those are in a foreign language.

We have not made a decision on whether or not to activate this collection.

Traci

Has anyone activated this, or specifically chosen to not activate it?  I'm debating.  On the one hand free books! And by known academic publishers. On the other hand, there are a lot of foreign language titles...

Thanks!

Attached is the title list.

As far as in other collections, I am not sure how many but I would assume some have been in the Academic Collection.  I don't have an internal comparison to other collections to see.



Thanks

Hi George,



I am inquiring about the EBSCO eBook Open Access Monograph Collection. Do you have a title list that you can send me? Are any of the OA titles in any of our other eBook databases?



I hope all is well.



Take Care,

Traci
