    Hello,
    We received a response that VitalSource don’t see a clear alignment between what Ex Libris offers and VitalSource's objectives that would make collaboration mutually beneficial and they are not interested in sending us metadata.
    Therefore, unfortunately, we will not be able to pursue this request.
    Kind regards,
    Tamar

    Hello,
    Still no response from the provider, nor from the contact provided.
    We are closing this idea as we are unable to add this collection without the provider's cooperation.
    Kind regards,
    Tamar

    Hello Benoît,
    We still didn't receive any metadata from the provider.
    We will keep trying in the next few weeks, also reaching out to the contact mentioned by Vera.
    Feel free to also pass them my direct email if you think that would be helpful.

    Thanks,
    Tamar

    Dear Ganor,
    Could you please update us on this? It's been ages...

    Thank you and kind regards
    Benoît

    This a really pressing need for us - we are unavoidably having to subscribe to titles via Vitalsource and having the collection in the CZ would make it slightly easier to manage.
