Dear Colleagues - I asked EBSCO this very question several years ago...their response was that the product is licensed for an institution and reliance by the school library on the PL subscription in place of the school's own subscription is a violation of the licensing agreement. regards, Julie Hulten ***************************************** Julie Hulten, Library Media Specialist Mark T.

(They go to the public library website and input their library card # to gain access) They can access it at the public library or from home, but not from school. Is this true?
