As libraries continue to reassess collection strategies and acquisition models, this session will focus specifically on EBSCO’s e-book services and how they support both electronic and print collections through flexible, sustainable approaches.
Participants will learn about recent developments in e-book acquisition workflows, including how libraries can manage print and electronic books together more effectively, support long-term access, and adapt to changing purchasing models while maintaining collection value.

This session focuses on how EBSCO’s SaaS services support daily library operations and system interoperability. Topics include integration with existing library management systems such as Alma, identity and access management, and the flow of data across platforms.
The discussion will highlight how well-integrated services can reduce operational complexity, support collaboration across teams, and improve the overall user experience.
