Our current analysis on eLending indicates it is having a direct and adverse impact on retail eBook sales.Įffective with July 2018 publications, all new titles from Tor Books will become available for library eBook distribution four months after their retail on-sale date rather than the current program which allows libraries to purchase the titles on their retail on-sale date.
Tor Books, a division of Macmillan Publishers and a leading global publisher of science fiction and fantasy will be changing our eBook lending model to libraries as part of a test program to determine the impact of eLending on retail sales. This means libraries will not be able to purchase new titles until four months after their on-sale date. Recently, popular Sci-Fi/Fantasy publisher TOR announced a 4 month restriction on availability of eBooks through OverDrive.
