UK: National e-book project calls for community involvement
From the announcement:

Earlier this year the JISC national e-books observatory project began its work to license collections of e-books that are core texts for UK HE, focusing on Engineering, Medicine, Media studies and Business and Management.

JISC is funding publishers to make available a selection of their core e-books to all UK HE institutions free for the next two years.
