Ingram Digital Group (www.ingramdigital.com), an Ingram content company focused on solutions for digital content management, hosting, distribution and promotion, announced that it has entered into an agreement to resell Greenwood Publishing Group’s (www.greenwood.com) online databases. The databases will be made available through MyiLibrary, Ingram Digital’s next-generation econtent aggregation platform. MyiLibrary will also facilitate the integration of rich metadata that links directly to Greenwood’s databases.ABC-CLIO (www.abc-clio.com) recently announced that it had reached an agreement with Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, Greenwood Publishing Group’s parent company, to grant ABC-CLIO a perpetual license to use the imprints and to publish the titles of Greenwood Publishing Group. The agreement with Ingram Digital will continue in force under the new arrangement with ABC-CLIO. Greenwood offers nine online databases covering topics from pop culture to world folklore and folk life. Each one comprises several digital resources, compiled to meet the needs of students, teachers, librarians, patrons, and researchers. The addition of the Greenwood databases to MyiLibrary’s content repository comes on the heels of several premium collections launched on the platform in 2008. Ingram Digital adds an average of 1,000 titles to MyiLibrary each week, making it one of the fastest growing econtent aggregators today. Source: Ingram Digital Group
