<div style="direction: ltr;">Flipster is pretty pricey, and I’m not aware of a very good option for The Economist. They are quite restrictive with their digital version, only allowing a certain number of views every month when we had it through RBDigital. It
got dropped from our renewal this year. We have it in full text in one of our databases, and for the moment, that’s going to have to be good enough.</div>

<div style="direction: ltr;">Good luck with another solution.</div>

We are transitioning our RBdigital eMags to OverDrive for the duration of our subscription terms at the end of January. OverDrive wants more than 3x what we are paying currently for eMagazines once that subscription ends. I'm curious to know if the DLIL consortium
has ever considered adding eMagazines to our service or if it is even feasible money wise? Also, wondering if any other libraries out there have had success finding an affordable option for eMagazines other than OverDrive eMags or Flipster (which we already
have). The Economist was a title exclusive to RBdigital and very popular with our community. Flipster does not offer it, and we are eager to keep access to that title in particular. We have digital access to it through our databases, but does not offer the
glossy magazine look that RBdigital offered. I appreciate your time.</div>
