[Eril-l] Hosting PDF e-book files

[Lawless, Jane]

We also use ebrary DASH. We find it a very easy solution that meets our needs well, and supports use only  by authenticated users.

Good luck!

Hi Jessica,
If you have ebrary, they allow you to upload PDF's to your institution-restricted ebrary database.

It works wonderfully for the situation you describe, and is called DASH<http://www.ebrary.com/corp/dash.jsp>.

Hello,
I'm interested in learning what other institutions do when the only format of an e-book is in PDF form and the publisher allows institutional access. Do you host it on your servers? How do you restrict access?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
