Under this model, titles are not restricted to linear distribution - one patron at a time - but rather they can be lent to any number of patrons concurrently. The number of days used for each loan instance is subtracted from the total number of annual loan days set for the title - usually 325. If the loan day credits have been used before the end of the subscription period, the library will either temporarily remove the e-book from our collection or purchase more credits. This depends on the price of the e-book credits.
Off campus use (for Aalto University researchers and students): Yes, use the Aalto-Primo e-book link
