Hoopla&#8217;s mission is to partner with libraries in delivering the best content to patrons in the most streamlined manner possible. And now, that includes books by you!<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><b>Hoopla Uses the Cost Per Checkout (CPC) Model<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Authors benefit from the CPC model because their book can be read by more readers at once\u2014no one has to wait weeks or months to check out your book, simply because the library could only purchase one or two copies. That means you have greater discoverability, and a great potential for earning royalties.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><b>To learn more about how CPC works for library royalties, <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/draft2digital.com\/library-pricing\/\"><b>click here<\/b><\/a><b>.<\/b><\/p>\n<table class=\"t1\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"td1\" valign=\"top\">\n<p class=\"p3\">\n<p class=\"p4\"><b>A Note on Price Changes<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">Hoopla\u2019s model does not currently allow for price changes\u2014something to consider when adding Hoopla as part of your library distribution strategy. You will be able to change prices on all other platforms, but the price you set for Hoopla will remain at the amount you set when opting in. This should not impact any promotions you may run, and there will be no price-matching on services such as Amazon.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">Due to the price-change limitation, we are launching Hoopla as a beta. Despite this, however, you will have full reach to every library system where Hoopla distributes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p6\">\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p class=\"p2\"><b>Getting Started<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">You\u2019ll be prompted to include Hoopla as one of your distribution channels the next time you log in to Draft2Digital. That\u2019s it! You can opt in all of your books at once, or wait and opt them in one at a time from your author dashboard.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Things should go pretty smoothly, but if you need help feel free to email us at <a href=\"mailto:support@draft2digital.com\">support@draft2digital.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">We\u2019re very excited about further expanding author reach to more libraries worldwide, and we\u2019re looking forward to seeing a new wave of readers discovering the work of Draft2Digital authors!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We think library distribution is pretty important.
