From EBL “We are pleased to inform you that in early August EBL will be moving from the Textbook lending model to a 3-user model.
The 3-user lending model will increase patron access to titles, by reducing the likelihood of turnaways. 3-user titles have a limit of three concurrent users. Concurrent use is determined by time spent in the Online Reader, not by loan length. In addition, libraries are able to permit downloads while preserving online access to popular titles. Upon launch, all existing Textbook titles – including owned titles – will become 3-user titles. Titles previously purchased in the Textbook model will now be more accessible to your patrons with no additional cost to you. Additional information regarding this change will be sent to you in mid-July”

(Note: this change doesn’t affect titles we own/make available through the non-linear lending model; they remain multiple user access)
