Negotiate
• License defines who counts as a user, what qualifies as accessible material, what level of metadata must be provided
• Can we modify the license to include local loading and perpetual access requirements?
• If not, will we still purchase this content?

Purchase
• How long do we sign for?
• How many schools need to commit to get this price?
• Is the billing in Canadian dollars?
• How do we cancel?

Okay…so how do we actually get the content?
• Journals – JATS XML & PDFs
• Books – ??? PDFs, XML, hopefully MARCs…a bit of a mess

• Scholars Portal Journals was the first Trustworthy Digital Repository (TDR) in Canada (there are six in North America)
• TDR certification is done by the Centre for Research Libraries
• TDR is infrastructure, but also lots and lots of documentation

Access
How do we make sure users can get the materials?
• MARC record distribution
• OpenURL resolvers
• Open metadata standards
• QA!
Access

Access
How do users know what they can do with the materials?
• Historically, most schools have not made licenses publicly available
• The OCUL Usage Rights Database aims to translate licensing terms, telling users what they can and cannot do with the material at the point of access

Access
How do we improve what we’ve got?
• QA is done by student employees
• But improving reporting mechanisms has also made it much easier to get users to QA!

These share a number of titles, but also have a lot of unique content
We would only lose one unique title if we unsubscribed from the smaller package

eBooks: another kettle of fish
• Journals content is quite well standardized. Books content is still a bit of a wild west.
• Intent of the SP Books platform was to cultivate standardization. Has it worked? Sort of…

• How do we make them accessible?
• How do we count usage?
• How do we give them a uniform look?

eBooks – accessibility
The Accessible Content ePortal (ACE) aims to make more of Ontario’s collections readily available to students with visual disabilities. It requires:
• Licensing• Format support• Delivery mechanism
![Page 37: eResources for Ontario Universities](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062412/58a0608c1a28ab5c1c8b6b75/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
• What does it mean to ‘read’ a book?
• What if you only read a chapter?
• What if you only read a page?
