Downloadable Audiobooks Webinar July 12, 2011 • 11:00 a.m. Presenters: Will Stuivenga, Washington State Library Bryan Messersmith, Recorded Books
Today’s Agenda • News and key facts, and what does it mean? • Live demonstration of the new OneClickdigital (Recorded Books) platform • Technical stuff • Authentication • MARC Records • Questions & (hopefully) answers
News & Key Facts • EBSCO (NetLibrary) and Recorded Books have agreed to amicably part ways • Recorded Books content will not be available on EBSCO or NetLibrary platforms as of Dec. 31, 2011 • EBSCO will move all NetLibrary content to the EBSCOHost platform on or about July 18, 2011 • Recorded Books is launching its own OneClickdigital platform at about the same time
What Does This Mean? • Libraries must transition to a new platform • It isn’t really practical to transition EVERYONE statewide to Recorded Books’ OneClickdigital in July • We recommend that public libraries go directly to the OneClickdigital platform, skipping EBSCOHost • For academic libraries and K-12 schools, consider a transition to OneClickdigital before school starts in the fall • Everyone must switch to OneClickdigital before Dec. 31, 2011
What Do I Do? • If your library decides to transition to OneClickdigital now, contact Bryan Messersmith: • Request the enrollment form via e-mail • Fill out the form, and return it to Recorded Books ASAP • If you do nothing, you will be transitioned to the EBSCOHost platform • You can transition to OneClickdigital later (but before Dec. 31)

Authentication • The Recorded Books OneClickdigital platform supports the following types of authentication: • IP Address recognition • Referring URL • Library card number (bar code matching) • SIP2 • EZProxy
MARC Records • Recorded Books will provide MARC records for all of their titles • Recommended procedure: Delete NetLibrary MARC records; upload Recorded Books MARC records • Unless your library has an alternate procedure available (such as batch editing of MARC records) • Tech support for MARC records issues should ideally come from your ILS vendor, not Recorded Books
