[Libs-Or] Harper Collins Issue

[Diedre Conkling]

I am not really going to try to answer this question other than to say that
we don't really have contracts for books, CD's, DVD's, and audiobooks.  We
purchase the item and supply it for circulation.

We have contracts or licenses for showing DVD's and for access to databases.

There has been a lot of discussion about ebooks and HarperCollins on the
PUBLIB discussion group.  Anyone can read the discussion in the archive
found at http://lists.webjunction.org/wjlists/publib/.  It might be easiest
to click on the Threads option and look for related subject headings.  It is
also possible to do a search of the list.
