[Michlib-l] OverDrive vs hoopla Flex

[Ahlers, Teresa]

Hi,
Does anyone have experience with using the new purchasing model ‘Flex’ from hoopla?
We are considering transferring content to hoopla from OverDrive and would like to hear from any library that has either done it or considered doing it.

Some specific questions/concerns we have are:
*Will it confuse patrons having two lending models in hoopla?
*How smoothly did the transfer go?
*Will it save budget dollars to  purchase Flex copies of ‘popular but not probably going to be a classic’ titles?

Thanks in advance!
