The UL has purchased the University of Chicago Press’s 2024 ebooks collection: this builds on previous purchases of their annual collections (including the 2023 collection last year). The collection is hosted on the De Gruyter platform, and will mean DRM-free, unlimited access to c. 220 new titles from this very popular academic publisher. Records for the ebooks which are currently available should display in iDiscover shortly, and more will be added as further titles are published throughout the year
