Collection Development Made Easy!
Marketplace & Administration
Patrons will love your Digital Library Reserve media platform because of the selection and convenience, and your library staff will like how easy it is to order titles and generate
reports. The entire system is actually two: an easy to use front-end for check out, plus a powerful back-end administrative portal for ordering and administration.
One System for Supply and Demand
The Digital Library Reserve platform is 100% transparent. This means that suppliers, publishers, and studios are providing their audiobooks, eBooks, music, and videos to the same
system librarians use to shop for titles. When you place an order, you're always seeing the most recent titles. When you purchase titles, they appear on your virtual shelves and are
ready for checkout within fifteen minutes. Digital Library Reserve is real-time, dynamic, and flexible-the world's premier digital media marketplace.
A Buffet of Titles
With Digital Library Reserve, your library selects the individual titles that are right for your patrons. There are no mandatory purchases and no minimum orders. Mix and match
formats on the same purchase order; select whatever you like, whenever it's convenient for your staff. Of course, you can save time by working from our suggested title lists, which
feature recommended titles from sources like Library Journal, Publishers Weekly, and The New York Times.
Marketplace
Our Marketplace system makes selecting titles for your digital collection fun and easy. With its shop-like experience, ease of searching, and tab navigation selecting and purchasing
is simple. Start with the suggested title lists at the tab navigation or start new and perform a search. It's your choice, you pick the titles your patrons want to read.
Collection Development Services
Get the latest information on hot titles, new publishers, and more by signing up for our electronic bi-weekly newsletter, ContentWire. ContentWire will keep you updated when new
titles and new publishers are added to Content Reserve. Personal collection development services include customized alerts on new titles and the automatic fill of digital holds.
Please contact us to arrange services.
Even More Choices!
Most titles are supplied in a one-user/one-copy purchase model. However, several digital media suppliers permit their content to be loaned as part of an always-available,
simultaneous use model. Titles purchased under this arrangement are always available to patrons, and can appear on your virtual shelves side-by-side content that is
one-user/one-copy.
The Answer Is Yes.
"Can I find out the most popular digital format or genre in my collection?"
"Can I see when my patrons are checking out digital books?"
"Is it easy to see which titles have the most holds?"
"Is it possible to see how many individual patrons are using my system?"
"Will the reports help me select better titles for my patrons?"
"Reporting data is based on titles, not downloaded parts, right?"
