eIDC Periodicals Pilot News

IMG_0388[1]
The eIndiana Digital Content group has been busy over the last year trying several new options with OverDrive. As a thank you for our recent adoption of the new periodicals platform, we received a NOOK. A drawing from the libraries that were the original sponsors of the project determined the NOOK’s new home. Please congratulate Middletown-Fall Creek Township Public Library on their newest ereader! The project itself has gone quite well, with many other libraries contributing content. Since January 1, 2015, we have already circulated more than 6,000 periodicals to patrons at 82 consortium libraries. If your library is part of the eIDC, please be sure to promote this content to your patrons!
