[Eril-l] EBSCO eBooks and Thorium Reader?

[Electronic Resources in Libraries discussion list]

Hello all.

(Never ever ever be one of a vendor's first guinea pigs...)

Has anyone figured out how to download EBSCO ebooks with Thorium Reader?

Yes, I click Download and select it gives me a passphrase, but just like with former Adobe Digital Editions it does not save it as EPUB or PDF, but as an ASCM file. And ASCM files are not of the "Supported Extensions" in Thorium Reader.

Sorry, McGill, but on https://libraryguides.mcgill.ca/ebooks/thorium, you indicate "...the file will have a file suffix of .lcpl". And the passphrases I am getting don't resemble "aurora-harmony-stellar-621" like you have in your screenshots. Mine are like this: 6C2BZJZWEiYuJCXyBzw2

Was there something I was supposed to set up in EBSCO and/or Thorium to get this all to work?

Anyone from EBSCO itself on this ERIL-L channel who can answer this?

Please let me know. Thank you.

Dan
