EBSCO and Ingram Combine Ebook Collections
EBSCO Information Services partnered with Coutts Information Services Ltd., Ingram Content Group, Inc.’s academic ebook company that provides resources to libraries. More than 400,000 ebooks from EBSCO’s academic collection are now available on Ingram’s Online Acquisitions and Selection Information System (OASIS) platform.OASIS allows librarians to look up bibliography information on, search for, and order print books and ebooks from Coutts Information Services, which provides content to more than 5,000 libraries in more than 150 countries. Options in OASIS include customizable local data fields, free MARC downloads, open order online claims, duplication control, access to invoices and shipping information, and order reporting. By collaborating with Ingram on its collection, EBSCO allows librarians to expand their collection development and order ebooks without changing their workflows. Acquisition services, invoices, and billing are now combined so customers have access to all of EBSCO’s ebook content. Librarians can still manage their orders online, download records, track their orders, and access reports. Source: EBSCO Information Services
