Institutional Pricing
Canadian Electronic Library is available on the desLibris platform by subscription.
The “Complete Collection” includes all public documents and those books made available by their publishers for subscription licensing. New titles are added daily to the collection, which in mid 2019 numbers over 80,000 titles. More information on the Complete Collection here.
Institutional/library pricing is based on account type, population served (with discounts based on location and language.)
To add desLibris to your library or corporate account, please open an account.
When your account is in place, your account profile will provide exact pricing for all available content based on your institution type and population served.
Orders may be placed here; the content ordered will be added to your account immediately with 30-day invoice terms, which allow for a free trial period.
