***apologies for cross-posting*** We have been investigating patron driven eBook acquisitions and are interested in the practicalities of funding and managing user expectations. For example do you top-slice the funds for PDA or are rentals and purchases allocated to individual book funds? If you use a separate/central budget for PDA what happens when the funds run out in a financial year? Is it topped up and if not how do you manage user expectations? Any feedback you can share about your experiences is welcomed.
