Prepaid Transaction Controls
ebrary's print and copy text transaction fees compensate the publisher for use of the material, and are separate from any printing or paper fees the library may charge. Libraries that offer prepaid copy/print transactions on behalf of their patrons have the following options to deter usage that might deplete the prepaid usage account, (e.g., printing large numbers of pages or entire books). These options are not applicable to libraries that require patrons to pay these fees using their personal credit card.
Print/Copy Page Limit: No Limit or (number of pages)
The Print/Copy Page Limit option limits the number of pages from which the patron may copy text and/or print pages while viewing a given title. Specify "None" to allow unlimited print and copy subsidy.
Single-page Printing:
The Single-page Printing option allows users to print only one page at a time (i.e., the user cannot specify a range of pages to print, but can only print the currently-viewed page).
Authorized IP Range(s)
Please list the ranges of IP addresses to be authorized for access to the site below, or attach a separate sheet. (e.g., 216.200.61.192-216.200.61.254)
OPAC Search Links from ebrary InfoTools
ebrary can integrate with many OPAC systems that offer a web-based search interface. While the patron is viewing a title within ebrary, he or she can select text within the book, and use that title as a basis for searching the web catalog. NOTE: OPAC systems and implementations vary widely; ebrary makes no guarantee that it will be able to integrate with your specific system.
If you would like to provide this service to your patrons, please provide us with the following information:
