Q. Why is there a limit on how many people can read some eBooks and not others?

Publishers control access limits and the number of copies of an eBook are available to reader at a particular time.  

ProQuest allows publishers to control how many copies of an eBook are available to readers at a particular time.  

Sometimes there may only be one copy. In other instances, there could be two, three, or even unlimited copies. 

Logging out of an eBook when you have finished using it allows someone else to log in and read the resource.
