Abstract

E-Books as a Shared Service in M25 (E-BASS25) is a JISC-funded project seeking to explore the opportunities and challenges relating to Patron-Driven Acquisition (PDA) of e-books within the context of a consortium of libraries.

Forming the basis for work package two of the E-BASS25 Project, this document seeks to briefly define:

• The factors affecting the make-up of library consortia

• The types of library consortia in the UK at present

• The reasons libraries belong to consortia

• The types of consortial procurement.
