Springer
Since 2011, UBC Library has purchased more than 20,000 ebooks from Springer in the areas of behavioural science, biomedical & life sciences, business & economics, chemistry & materials science, computer science, earth & environmental science, energy, engineering, humanities, social sciences & law, mathematics & statistics, medicine, physics & astronomy, and professional & applied computing. The Library has entered into another agreement with Springer to purchase ebooks for 2015 to 2017. Springer content is heavily used by the UBC community and is a favoured platform because there are no digital restrictions and content is purchased outright.
