I am a small publisher who would like to offer all of the ebook versions of my list for *free* during the pandemic. However, I cannot afford to do this forever. Is there a way to set an expiration date on an EPUB file? Thank you all and be safe.

We're in the same boat. Did you find an easy solution? These suggestions seem pretty complicated.

Google EPUB DRM. (You will note that some items that come up are about removing DRM.)

Here is some sites with information:

Keep in mind that if the viewer can read it, they can probably remove any restrictions.
