Libraries and other organizations may purchase individual titles, creating a custom collection that meets their needs. For ebrary customers, the new purchase-only titles provide an efficient way to enhance their existing collections. Purchase-only titles are delivered via the ebrary platform, allowing seamless integration with other ebrary products, a library's own PDF content, other digital resource in the library, and information on the web through ebrary's InfoTools(TM) software.
