Abstract

The goal of this study is to revisit and contrast the original data from “School Library eBook Providers and Spanish Language Equity: An Analysis of eBook Collections Available to School Libraries.” Our original study examined the eBooks in Spanish provided by vendors of library resources to school libraries to determine if there are equitable offerings of eBooks in Spanish relative to the Spanish speaking school population in the United States. The processes in that study were replicated where possible and expanded upon for contextual understanding. Results indicate an increase in the Spanish language eBook options available in this replication study.
