How do content access levels work with Advantage and Advantage Plus?

A title's content access levels are assigned by the collection that owns the title. This means that Advantage accounts have their own default content access levels and can manage access levels for any titles they've added to their Advantage collection, including:

  • Titles not in the shared collection (also called the consortium).
  • Titles the shared collection/consortium also owns. However, if the Advantage member and shared collection/consortium assign different access levels to the same title, the least restrictive access level will apply to Advantage users.
    For example:
    • If the Advantage member has a title set to Juvenile and the shared collection/consortium has the same title set to Adult, the Juvenile access level applies to the Advantage users. The Adult level applies only to shared collection/consortium users who aren't also members of the Advantage collection.
    • If the Advantage member has a title set to Adult and the shared collection/consortium has the same title set to Juvenile, the Juvenile access level applies to all users, regardless of their Advantage status.

Additional policies apply for titles that are shared or moved through Advantage Plus:
