I uncovered a thorny access issue for Ebsco ebooks, which do not in general work well with Macs using Safari or Firefox (the previous issue has been a clunky system where each page needs to be opened separately). Right now, using either of these browsers generates a Ebook in use message IF the user is going directly through EBSCO. However, the books work, or at least the ones I tried, if you go directly through the catalog. I have reported this to Beth, who will work with EBSCO on resolving.
If possible, people should use Internet Explorer to access EBSCO ebooks. The other ebook systems don't have the same issues. Other access problems with EBSCO ebooks might be caused by an older edition of Adobe.
