In addition to the key indicators above, more detail on the Libraries service delivery can be found on the adjacent tabs:
*The Hathi Trust Emergency Temporary Access Service (ETAS) is a service provided to Member institutions in response to the move to remote learning necessitated by the COVID-19 pandemic. Under ETAS, Member institutions and their patrons can access material regardless of copyright, as long as that institution holds a physical copy of the work in its collection.
These usage statistics are distinct from the E-Book section requests, which are drawn from Penn's own electronic collections.
