New in the catalogue -- Permitted Uses and Print on Demand

Two new options are now available in the catalogue (Endeca interface) --

1) Permitted Uses
All online resource records now provide information about their permitted uses under our licenses. You will see Permitted Uses icons on the hitlist, and more information about permitted uses on detailed records. Users are informed whether material from each online title may be reproduced in Blackboard and course web pages, and in printed course packs. The Permitted Uses information is linked to a page providing a permanent link to the title that may be used anywhere, and also more information about the title's license. A contact to request this information is provided if it has not yet been recorded in the database. Permitted Uses information is available through the Endeca catalogue, and also from the e-journal and e-resource tabs on the library homepage.

2) Print on Demand
Users may now order printed copies of selected online resources through our print-on-demand program. Some 220,000 online titles (out-of-copyright titles, scanned from our collections) now display a Print Book option, in the hitlist drop-menu of options for these titles, and also on their detailed records. Users may order a printed copy of the title through the University of Toronto Bookstore Espresso Print on Demand service or download a pdf to print themselves. More print on-demand options, and more print-on-demand titles, including recently published materials, are coming soon.
