Are there any changes to print ILMs and how they are ordered? |
No. Print ILMs can continue to be ordered via the ILM website, and order fulfillment will continue to be provided by each of the licensed ILM print providers. |
Can I access the digital version through my institutional Learning Management System (LMS)? |
Not at this time. LMS access and integration is being considered for a future implementation phase. |
Is the content of the digital versions different than the print versions? |
No. The content is the same. However, the digital ILM content is provided in full colour, whereas the print ILMs are currently only available in black & white. |
What is a digital ILM package? |
A digital ILM package is a single digital file that contains multiple ILMs. These package files are created by the ILM team and made available to institutions to adopt into their bookstore inventory. |
What is a standard package of ILMs? |
The standard ILM package includes modules, as listed for each Period package, on the Order Modules page. |
What is a custom package of ILMs? |
Custom packages are created by special request from institutions. Upon request, the ILM office will create a custom package of ILMs containing a specific list of modules, as provided by the institution/training provider. |
How do I submit a custom package request? |
Please submit the Digital ILM Custom Package Request Form, and allow 3-5 business days for orders to be processed. |
How do I purchase digital ILMs? |
Digital ILMs can be purchased through your institutional campus retailer/bookstore. Adoption of the digital ILMs into campus retail stores is optional, so not all stores may offer the digital option. |
How do I access digital ILMs that I have purchased? |
For online purchases, you will receive a link providing you with access to the purchased digital ILM content. For in-store purchases, you will typically receive an access code that you can use to access the content on the appropriate distribution platform. |
What if I want to purchase both the print and digital ILMs? |
There may be an option to purchase a bundle of both print and digital ILMs in a single bundle through your institutional campus bookstore/retailer. Please contact your institution's bookstore to find out if that is something they offer. |
Is any discount offered when both print and digital are purchased together in the same transaction? |
Discounted pricing may be provided at the discrestion of the campus retailer. Please see your institution’s bookstore/retailer for details and pricing. |
How long do I have access to the digital ILMs I purchase? Does access expire? |
Currently, there will be no expiry dates or length of access limits. Students will be able to access the specific version of the ILM they purchased as long as needed. This may change in the future as the ILM team considers additional purchasing options with alternate pricing, however there is not an ETA for when these additional options will be implemented. |
Will I automatically get access to updated versions for the digital ILMs I purchase? |
No, not at this time. New versions would need to be purchased separately once they are released. |
Are students able to annotate and highlight their digital ILM? |
Yes - both the RedShelf and BibliU programs allow students to bookmark, annotate and highlight their copy of the digital ILM. |
Can I print my digital ILM? |
No - print functionality for digital ILMs is currently unavailable. |
What are the software and hardware requirements in order to use the eReaders for digital ILMs? |
Campus eBookstore purchases will utilize BibliU as the eReader platform. You can find more information about the platform and hardware/software requirements on the Students | BibliU page.
