    Integration with the ILS to embargo the print copy while the CDL copy was on reserve would also be awesome.

    View only access could facilitate a number of situations in Reserves:
    • Licensing or the ability to reduce the cost of something if it cannot be downloaded
    • Controlled digital lending
    • Perhaps being able to expand our definition of Fair Use (the percentage of a work we are willing to place on reserve), without the ability to download, the affect on the market (one of the four factors) may be lessened.

    Provide a "view only" option for PDFs so students cannot (so easily) download and save materials.
