Rather than limiting access to in-library use, Miami University Libraries has developed a process that allows users to check out short-term access to software licenses for use on their own devices. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p style="margin:0in;line-height:12.6pt"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">Join us on March 19th at 2:00 PM for an insightful webinar where Miami University’s Ken Irwin and Mike Bomholt will share how their model has
led to student cost savings, high rates of license utilization, and a strong return on investment. This session is perfect for e-resources librarians, library technologists, and forward-thinking library leaders looking to enhance digital access for their users.
