E-Book Usage

*E-Book Usage measured by section requests

Footnotes

*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.
