dc.description	So you’ve done all your background research. You’re ready to build your e-book program. What now? This on-demand webinar demonstrates different approaches to add e-books and/or e-readers to library collections of all sizes. See successful models that scale from a very small to very large libraries. A panel of librarians and techs who have added e-book and circulating e-reader share their approaches and experiences. This archived webinar was originally presented November 8, 2011, as the third of four webinars in “Public Librarian’s Guide to E-Books: A PLA Webinar Series.” Recording sold as an on-demand webinar until June 4, 2012. “Public Librarian’s Guide to E-Books: A PLA Webinar Series” offers a practical approach to integrating e-books, e-readers, and related e-materials into public library collections.
