Elsevier ELibrary (elsevierelibrary.de)
Target/Collection: Elsevier ELibrary
Provider: ELSEVIER
URL: https://institut.elsevierelibrary.de/
title list: https://institut.elsevierelibrary.de/catalog/show/all
content: (mostly) German-speaking textbooks for medicine studies (pre-clinical & clinical, post-graduate), veterinary medicine and nursing
Instead of using the default target "miscellaneous_ebooks", we think it appropriate to create a dedicated target for this collection.
The list of D-A-CH clients using the Elsevier eLibrary has become quite long: https://institut.elsevierelibrary.de/staticcms/referenzen

We currently support the "ScienceDirect German Medical Collection" in annual versions, which should fully cover the requested content here.
