<div dir="ltr">Dear colleagues,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I'm reaching out to see how other academic libraries are handling ebook requests for titles that are not available through traditional academic suppliers (Proquest, EBSCO, etc.). An example would be Bill Nye's Unstoppable, published by St. Martin's, so
more of a popular non-fiction title. Specifically, Overdrive seems to have been a resource for that kind of material that is no longer available at our city public library, though they do have a couple of other platforms. Has your academic library worked
with Overdrive?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Also, has anyone begun pointing users to Internet Archive's "National Emergency Library" for access at least to scanned titles that you might already have in your print collection? </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Please feel free to respond off-list, if you prefer.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks,</div>
<div>Laura</div>
