more expedient than creating a new profile just for PDA, although we did add additional price caps to the PDA profile. Our library service provider YBP applies our profile to create our PDA pool, which is very helpful.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">When we first started doing PDA for electronic books, we didn't limit on publishers. After seeing some titles we would never have purchased, I put in limits by publisher. Then I realized that the actual uses of non-academic titles was so
minimal, that it didn't really matter; the total cost of these titles was tiny in proportion to the whole. I have left the publisher limit, but some titles still come through that we would not have ever purchased in print. It's just not enough to worry about.
I guess that would be my advice; is it enough to warrant spending your time analyzing? If so, then publisher is an easy way to start.<o:p></o:p></p>
