ebook usernames & passwords

Posted by Elaine on October 12, 2010 at 2:37am

Hi Everyone, as we continue to add ebooks to your collection we are trying to apply consistent usernames and passwords, as well as streamline access through from different vendors.  I hope my question makes sense, I'm coming off of gorgeous Columbus Day weekend.

    I would like to know more about Via - do you have website or contact info?

      You can test drive it here. I have not purchased any books yet, but I am defiantly looking into it. I do like that multiple students can read an ebook at a time.

    I totally feel your pain! We are really feeling platform fatigue, too. Have streamlined our user names and passwords as best we can... Ran across a possible solution at the AASL National Conference that I plan to explore - Makin is offering a single platform called Via, and is saying that they will grandfather in your current content. They will host eBooks and databases from several publishers... One username, one password. The catch? You then have to purchase any new content from them.
