Do you have an entire class, or classes, reading the same book at the same time?  Ebooks Minnesota's licensing model allows for unlimited simultaneous use meaning multiple users can read the same ebook at the same time. There are no holds, no checkouts, or waitlists.  Unlike most ebook platforms that allow one reader per book, you can have an entire class reading the same page at once.  This flexible access option means these titles are always available.

Take a look at some of the English literature titles, including The Scarlet Letter, Romeo and Juliet, and Heart of Darkness.  If users choose to register for a MackinVIA account they can create a digital bookshelf of favorites, and add notes and highlights directly to the text.  This is true for all of the titles in Ebooks Minnesota which includes over 9,000 books.  There are books for elementary levels all the way up through adult in the collection.
