Over the last 18 months, the JISC national e-books observatory project has collected a
wealth of data to inform the development of the e-books market.
The data is of relevance to everyone in the e-books market and JISC Collections wishes to
share it to help develop a market that is based on real evidence. We welcome you to join us
at the workshop.
Following a brief introduction to the project and the findings from Caren Milloy, JISC national
e-books observatory project manager, four speakers will present what they have learnt from
the project, what it means to them in their role and how they intend to use the findings to
develop their role and their organisation’s strategy.
