The agreement represents the largest eBook deal ever to have been signed in Germany, and is, in fact, a national license for all English-language chemistry, materials science and medicine titles during the copyright years 2005 – 2008. This means that all researchers, students and staff at all publicly funded universities, technical colleges and research institutions will have access to the content included in the deal.
