MORE: TIFFANYHow often are titles added/deleted?
Constantly. Records are updated once a week for USMAI titles, once a month for UMBC titles; records are distinct from titles - titles may be added or subtracted at any time by the vendor, so our records may lag in reflecting those changes.
Notes about access
With UMBC EBL titles, you should be taken to the indexing page directly, whereas with USMAI EBL titles you should be taken to a page wher you specify your campus. For some titles, you will need to request access, and with others, you should be granted access directly if the title is available to check out.
