Published on BookStandard.com and InfoToday.com:
Yale University Press is now adding digital content to NetLibrary (www.oclc.org), OCLC’s platform for econtent to libraries worldwide. Among notable titles in the Yale collection are Ali Allawi’s The Occupation of Iraq, E. H. Gombrich’s A Little History of the World, the Yale Series of Younger Poets, the Annotated Shakespeare, the Lamar Series in Western History, Yale University Press Health and Wellness series, and others.
More than 400 Yale University Press titles are currently available through NetLibrary, and another 2000-plus titles will be added after the backlist is digitized.
“It’s fitting that as we enter into our second century, we begin to establish partnerships that will help us fulfill our founding mission—to aid in the discovery and dissemination of knowledge—well into the future,” said John Donatich, director of Yale University Press. “With this in mind, we are very pleased to be working with NetLibrary and excited by the new opportunities that this relationship will afford.”
“OCLC NetLibrary is pleased to be able to offer titles from Yale University Press, one of the most distinguished American university presses,” said Chip Nilges, vice president of OCLC Business Development. “These titles represent works that promote a greater understanding of our world, and will be of great benefit to users of all libraries, and particularly academic institutions.” Users now have access to more than 150,000 titles from 400-plus publishers in OCLC NetLibrary’s econtent platform offered through 15,000-plus libraries worldwide.
