OhioLINK viewpoint:
Consortium Electronic Book Licenses – it’s Just a Serial
Common Licensing Expectations and Techniques for E-Book
Publishers or E-book Aggregators learned from E-Journals
4
E-Journal Licensing Lessons for E-books• There is only one budget for both electronic and print
book formats• Must reflect dramatic increase in content and access
per monetary unit spent• Must be a more economically sustainable model• Must reflect needs for perpetual access, archiving,
preservation• Must complement Inter-library loan systems• Must focus on current and future content• Conclusion – “Big Deal” approach works best if we
are to approach e-book licenses strategically
5
Requirements for E-book Publishers• Comprehensive, predictable scope of titles• Electronic version concurrent with print• Separate the back list from front list• Pricing accounts for E-book collection plus
expected print copies – in combination• Pricing is a reasonable extrapolation of historical
group annual unit and spending levels for a comparable scope of titles
• Pricing includes additional discounts on print prices
• OhioLINK can locally load6
E-books are like Journals because…
• The number of books produced each year by publishers is often very stable
• The number of books bought by a group each year is often very stable - as measured by percent of produced books and copies bought per title
• At the very minimum, there are often stable levels and trends which can be used to estimate future behavior
• Measuring multi-year book histories is like measuring current journal subscriptions

Determining a Group License Price Part 1
1. Measure annual print purchase history - at least 5 years for a comparable scope of titles
a. Book holdings - titles and copies by school
b. Copies/title
c. Percent of titles produced that are bought by the consortium
d. Consortium cost at net price per title
2. Extrapolate purchase history trends to determine future “Status Quo” expected value of the group’s print business with book publisher
8
Determining a Group License Price Part 2
3. Create Group License Potential Cost Matrix – including both electronic and print
a. Range of potential group electronic license prices
b. Range of potential print purchase levels below the expected value of Status Quo print levels at expected discounted print prices
4. Negotiate to reasonable, sustainable win-win multi-year agreement
5. Divide electronic Group license fee among members based on shares of purchase history

Electronic Fee as a % of M Exp Lib Cost
Net Result of this Approach• Strategic objectives met – consistent with
journals and other types of materials
• Expected total cost is realistic and controlled
• Easy to regulate if units and budgets get out of balance
• Healthier for publishers – status quo trends show unit declines
• Reductions can be made to total print copies across the consortium – shelf space saved
• Access is dramatically increased via e-books16
