When EBSCO eBook Manager launches, libraries will have the ability to set download restrictions/allowances at the individual title level, as well as the access model level. Will there be a setting to stop the downloading of an entire e-book, or prevent others from accessing 1 User e-books? Librarians can use facets on the left-hand side to limit these results, which include displaying only owned titles. The 'My Collection' tab in EBSCO eBook Manager contains a library’s entire holdings, including owned, shared, subscription and DDA/STL. How do libraries get to the “My Collection” search, showing owned EBSCO eBooks? The 'My Collection' search results will have an option for exporting shortly after launch.
