EbscoHost and NetLibrary integration

Today I attended a presentation from EBSCO representatives on the recent acquisition of NetLibrary. Here are some notes that may be of interest to RIS folks:

Basic Timeline:

• Preview version - April 2011 (current and EBSCOHost versions available).
• Live EBSCOHost version - July 2011.

Additional Notes:

• NetLibrary content will show up in EBSCOHost's database selections options menu as "Audio Book Collection" and "eBook Collection". (i.e. NetLibrary branding will be phased out).
• 10 or 20 page print limit will bump up to 60 pages per titles (sometimes 30 pages per section limits).
• Looking to do: print page ranges, multiple non-sequential pages.
• To view/access any ebook/audiobook need to log in to My EBSCOHost. 
• Notes feature will continue to be available - most likely to get moved over.
• New Oxford American Dictionary integrated with eBooks.

Liz in ACQ is getting copies of slides for anyone interested in more details, screenshots, etc.
