The Debate over Short-Term Loan Pricing

author

Hiatt, C. Derrik

abstract

Short-term loans (or STLs) allow libraries to pay for a user’s limited-time access to an e-book. The article discusses fairness in pricing, changes in library spending and publishers' revenue patterns, the importance of gathering data, and the need to work with publishers to find a sustainable model.
