New Collection Development Options for GOBI3 Users EBSCO has recently enhanced its partnership with YBP to make it easier for GOBI users to choose eBooks on EBSCOhost. Multi-user purchase models (Three User and Unlimited User), as well as the Demand-Driven Acquisitions (DDA) model, are now available options for eBooks on EBSCOhost through GOBI3. In addition, EBSCO is focused on maximizing the speed at which titles become available after publication. If you use GOBI3 as your selection tool, make sure your profile is set up to display eBooks on EBSCOhost.
