"The joys and perils of ebooks, we thought it would be easier" is designed to bring together colleagues in FE and HE, together with suppliers and other interested parties, to discuss just where ebooks are taking us in the 21st century institution. Whether you are interested in patron-driven purchasing, seeing an overview of the current marketplace, or buying resources to support further education courses, we have a range of speakers to suit all tastes. Half the day will be devoted to strands focused on FE or HE matters, which will allow you to share concerns and issues and network with colleagues from your sector.
FE colleagues: this is your chance to discuss the issues particular to FE directly with JISC Collections . Purchasing and getting access to content that is relevant to your students and affordable on your budget.
