How to Order
Subscription Service Purchases
The best and most economical way to acquire the Canadian Electronic Library is by subscription. One annual payment, under low pricing scaled by FTE or cardholder, provides a library system with full simultaneous multi-user access to all subscription titles included to date, as well as those released during the subscription period.
Perpetual Access Purchases
Single titles may be purchased in several ways. Existing ebrary customers may use the eBOP feature on the ebrary partner site for easy, automated and instant addition of titles.
Libraries dealing with wholesalers like Blackwell and Baker and Taylor may purchase CEL titles through these systems.
And individual titles may be ordered using the CEL Title List. See perpetual access pricing here.
