large scale?
How does this impact libraries, publishers, vendors?
Hosted by ALCTS, the Association for Library Collections and Technical Services
The “Consideration Pool”All of the books available for
access through the DDA program
Potentially much larger than a traditional collection
Can be tightly controlled or not – library preference

What About Consortial DDA?
Tension between?Goal of consortial purchasing:
shared access for discounted group price
Goal of DDA – pay for only what is needed (locally)
Hosted by ALCTS, the Association for Library Collections and Technical Services
Does DDA Change the Role of the Library?
Long-term stewardship vs provision of robust collection for current research and teachingDoes the method of building the
collection matter in this context?
