How Does Your Library Handle Electronic Serials? A General Survey
Abstract
This article reports on the findings of a survey conducted during August and September 2001 that investigated how all types of libraries from around the world manage and provide access to electronic serials (eserials). The survey's focus was on the practical aspects of eserials management, but many of the respondents took advantage of open-ended questions to express their views. The quantitative findings of the survey show that there is a diversity of ways in which eserials are being managed, and the qualitative findings suggest that libraries are deeply concerned about the lack of both standards and best practices for managing eserials.
