| Abstract: | In 2016, ProQuest started advertising their new Access to Own (ATO) model for ebooks as an alternative to their other Demand Driven Acquisition (DDA) models. The ATO model was touted as applying the cost of loans toward title ownership to balance costs of purchasing and loans. This article shares the Colorado Alliance of Research Libraries' history of ebook DDA and the process of transition to a DDA ATO model. |
