Managing electronic collections in the library is a complex
process, since it involves making decisions not only on the
titles to be purchased, but also the technical formats for
the lending collection. This guide provides an overview of
questions which are recommended for use as a part of the
selection process, covering an overview of eBooks, how they
differ from book databases, why libraries may consider
purchasing eBooks, how they may be funded, requirements for
publishers and the impact of eBooks on library purchases.
Further details on eBooks may be found in our report
The eBooks Marketplace: A New Evaluation.
