Transiting Batteries Update
After some investigating, we have confirmed that items with internal lithium-ion batteries can be transited via InfoExpress.
Consortium Discounts
We wanted to remind you all that libraries can subscribe to Gale Courses, Wowbrary, and RDA Toolkit at a discounted rate through the consortium! A subscription to Gale Courses can start at any time while Wowbrary and RDA Toolkit can only be subscribed to during subscription renewal.
Aspen NoveList Links
We are aware of the broken search links when attempting to select a title from the Novelist “shelf” in Aspen. We’re working with Equinox and EBSCO to get this sorted out. Thank you for your patience!
Non-EI Library Survey
An email was sent out to the INPubLib listserv earlier this week requesting non-member libraries fill out a survey for the consortium’s strategic plan. If you’d like to see what Carson Block said in his video, you can watch it here.
LibraryIQ
Another Introduction to LibraryIQ has been scheduled for November 6 at 11am (ET). No registration is necessary.. Just click this link to join. The link is also available in the EI calendar.
