The consortium is a shared digital collection of high-interest eBooks and audiobooks. One of the major benefits is that schools can combine their budgets together so that they can afford a relatively large collection of eBooks and audiobooks for their students and staff. It is particularly beneficial for schools who cannot afford or who have not yet explored eBooks in their libraries. Another benefit is that certified school librarians are choosing the books. Schools always keep access to perpetual titles purchased in years in which they join the collection. Even if you cannot join every year, you’ll keep access to any subscription title for the length of the subscription.
