<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;color:#7030A0">We don’t differentiate by format, but by continuity. So one-time ebook orders come out of the same fund as a department’s physical book orders. The initial allocations are
 determined by a mix of factors, including: number of majors, credit hours, faculty FTE, and average book cost from the previous year. But we’re not a research university so we don’t take publishing into account.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

 too much in their favor.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-CA"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-CA">I was wondering if anyone in an academic library can share how they allocate their e-book budget. We would like to allocate a percentage of our e-book budget to each faculty and then they can use it to purchase faculty
 publications, student recommendations, and faculty requests as they see fit. I think it makes sense to allocate the most money to the largest faculty, but I’m not sure if it is that simple. Our education faculty publishes the most e-books, so should they get
 a higher allocation to buy faculty publications? Should it be based on which faculty typically has the most expensive e-books?
