VIVA Demand Driven Acquisitions Plan Coming Together

by edlener, posted on April 26, 2013

VIVA is moving ahead with its plans to implement a Demand Driven Acquisitions (DDA) e-book program for books in STEM disciplines. EBL was selected as the primary partner earlier this year. Several publishers have now agreed to participate in the VIVA program, and we have just heard that the following will be included:

· John Wiley & Sons
· Oxford University Press
· Jossey-Bass
· McGraw-Hill UK
· Wiley-VCH

The negotiations continue and VIVA hopes to have more publishers in the plan soon. As details are finalized we will be modifying the parameters of our own DDA and approval plans to take full advantage of the new offerings through VIVA.
