Between the beginning of August and the end of October, 245 titles were triggered for purchase across the UL’s two demand-driven acquisition (DDA) schemes. Cambridge readers are as eclectic as ever in their interests: thanks to their activity, we now own ebooks about (amongst others) pathological lying, Schubert’s instrumental music, and contemporary American climate fiction. There remain nearly 8,500 unowned titles available across Ebook Central and JSTOR, with more being added each week.
A selection of recently published titles which we have acquired in perpetuity through the DDAs can be seen below (click here to skip to the list of iDiscover links). As ever, if you have any questions, please do get in touch with the English Collections team.
