How does the NJIT EBL pool / collection work?
A. NJIT librarians created an EBL profile EBL profile based upon such elements as the publisher, subject, the LC call number, the date of publication, etc.
B. EBL will only make accessible to NJIT users titles which match this profile.
C. The profile determines what type of titles are added to the pool (but not an exact number).
D. Initially creating the profile took a lot of staff time.

Strategy: to Manage Runaway Costs
Limit the total pool sizeLimit the total pool size. There is a correlation, correlation, albeit delayed, between the pool size and the costs of loans / rentals generated in a given period of time.
How: Drop unused titles Drop unused titles from the pool that have the oldest publication datesoldest publication dates. If an older title is not used after a given period, drop it and add a newer title.

“Again the more ebooks more ebooks your library offers, whether previously purchased ebooks, subscription packages, the lower the ratethe lower the rate of demand-driven acquisitions because your users have a larger universe of ebooks from which to choose. Of course, the opposite is true: fewer ebooks means the risk-pool title is likely to be used more.” p.164
