ProQuest Ebook Central eBook ordering:

If you are ordering an e-book and it is available through ProQuest Ebook Central, we may already have access to the book. Before ordering, please do the following:

Check the ProQuest Ebook Central database at: https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/yale-ebooks/home.action to see if the title is listed and accessible.

If the ebook is available through ProQuest:

1. Check to see if we have a bib record in Orbis for the title. If we don’t, notify the E-Resources Access team (marc-files@mailman.yale.edu) to get the bib record loaded.
2. Notify the selector that the title is available through ProQuest EBook Central. Make sure the selector understands that ebrary titles are leased copies and we are not guaranteed perpetual access.
3. Only continue with the order if the selector chooses to pay for perpetual access.
4. If they do, you can let them know whether there are single or multiple user options and the price for each.
5. Once the user options have been selected, you can continue with the order.
6. Once you have been notified that access is available, please notify the selector or requestor that the ebook is accessible.

If the title is not available through ProQuest you can process the order following steps 4-6 above.

Add the proxy prefix to the e-book URL sent by GOBI in the NOA OR use the link from the 856 MARC field in the Voyager bib record.

TIP: Copy and paste your proxied link into the Notepad program before copying and pasting into patron email. This removes any extra formatting in the link. After pasting it into your email, press "return" to activate the link.

DO NOT use the link from the 953 MARC field in the Voyager bib record.

DO NOT add the prefix to Hathi or Internet Archive links.

DO NOT insert spaces between the prefix and the URL.

The proxy prefix looks like this: https://yale.idm.oclc.org/login?URL=
