    Abstract
    Abstract
    In an effort to ascertain where future eBook purchases would be most appropriate, librarians at the TCNJ Library ran reports on Voyager to generate lists of heavily-circulated monographs, heavily-browsed monographs, and monographs for which there was repeated ILL demand. These lists were submitted to major eBook aggregators to identify which titles were also available as eBook equivalents. The resulting matches were then examined by subject and by publication date. An analysis of these data highlights areas where eBook collecting would most effectively meet user needs. This presentation will describe the study methodology, data analysis and findings.
