Question:

Is it possible to lend digital inventory like we do for physical items, for example have loans and requests for the digital files?  We would need the requests because in many cases we have a concurrent user limit per digital file.

Answer:

This can be done using Long Term Digital Fulfillment and it is an integral part of Alma for those institutions using Alma-D (Alma Digital).
