When EBSCO took over NetLibrary, our shared public library collection was swept along and it’s now called “eBooks on EBSCOhost.”  The migration was completed at the end of July.

The WiLS staff involved in WPLC management will  continue to have a small role in supporting the shared collection, mostly by disseminating and centralizing information as we get it, and by facilitating support.

Grab EBSCO from NetLibrary information for even more links, details and an FAQ.
