Subject: Union catalog question

Hello All,

I work with a multi-type union catalog and am curious how others in this situation deal with or are planning on dealing with ebooks in their union catalogs and stay within whatever licensing restrictions come with that access/service?

For instance, Sylvan Dell Publishing has several ebook packages, nicely provide the marc records with customized 856 links, but in a union catalog (at least ours) those titles basically are available to any guest who can find them.  Not to mention if several members purchase the same package, there end up being multiple mark records.

This is a new problem and thus far we've had some mixed opinions about how to handle it, so I'm just hoping for some additional input from others.

Thanks you advance,
Kendra
