Snag discounts on Science Direct eBooks from Elsevier

We’re pleased to partner with Elsevier to support collection development needs and achieve savings on Science Direct eBooks, Reference Works, and eTextbooks. See here for more information about volume discounts, as well as subject collection and title lists.   

Are you interested in an evidence-based acquisitions model? Elsevier also offers their EBS (Evidence-Based Selection) program.  

How it works 

  1. The library receives access to all eBooks included in the 2025 S&T Frontlist, plus four years of Backlist content (2024–2021), at a significantly reduced rate. 
  2. At the end of the 12-month access period, the library selects which titles to purchase and retain in perpetuity, based on evidence-based usage and up to the value of the initial investment. Titles are purchased at list price. The library also has the option to continue EBS access with an agreed-upon increase. 

Pricing varies by institution. For a customized quote or more information, contact services@mcls.org  or 517-939-1382.
