Join us to learn about a group Evidence-Based Acquisitions (EBA) program with Oxford Scholarship Online

Only available to Michigan academic libraries 

We’ve heard from several libraries who are interested in a group eBook collection, so we’ve initiated conversations with a few publishers and vendors to explore the possibility. Oxford University Press has developed an EBA proposal for us, specifically with smaller to mid-size academic libraries in mind. This opportunity with Oxford is only available to Michigan academic libraries, as the Academic Libraries of Indiana (ALI) already have a similar program in place. 

Please join us at our upcoming virtual meeting on Sept. 9, 2026 at 2 p.m. Eastern (1 p.m. Central) to learn more about this opportunity and how your library might benefit from a shared EBA program. Find more information about the EBA proposal here, and additional information about Oxford Scholarship Online here.
