The three main sections contain contributions by experts in the publisher/vendor arena, as well as by librarians who report on both the challenges of offering and managing e- books and on the issues surrounding patron use of e-books. The case study section offers perspectives from seven different sizes and types of libraries whose librarians describe innovative and thought-provoking projects involving e-books. Read about perspectives on e-books from organizations as diverse as a commercial publisher and an association press. Learn about the viewpoint of a jobber. Find out about the e-book challenges facing librarians, such as the quest to control costs in the patron-driven acquisitions (PDA) model, how to solve the dilemma of resource sharing with e-books, and how to manage PDA in the consortial environment. See what patron use of e-books reveals about reading habits and disciplinary differences. Finally, in the case study section, discover how to promote scholarly e-books, how to manage an e-reader checkout program, and how one library replaced most of its print collection with e-books. These and other examples illustrate how innovative librarians use e-books to enhance users' experiences with scholarly works"-- |cProvided by publisher. 588 Description based on print version record. 590 Project Muse|bProject Muse Open Access 650 0 Academic libraries|zUnited States|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh97007871|vCase studies.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99001484 650 0 Libraries and electronic publishing.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85076615 650 0 Scholarly electronic publishing.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh98003953 650 0 Academic libraries|xCollection development.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85076591 650 0 Libraries|xSpecial collections|xElectronic books.|0https:/ /id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2021005873 650 7 Academic libraries.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 794997 650 7 Libraries and electronic publishing.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/997518 650 7 Scholarly electronic publishing.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1106853 650 7 Academic libraries|xCollection development.|2fast|0https:/ /id.worldcat.org/fast/795018 650 7 Libraries|xSpecial collections|xElectronic books.|2fast |0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/2029855 651 7 United States.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204155 655 7 Case studies.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1423765 655 7 Electronic books. .|2local 655 7 Case studies.|2lcgft|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ genreForms/gf2017026140 700 1 Nixon, Judith M.,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n87850594|eeditor. 700 1 Freeman, Robert S.,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n2002046644|eeditor. 700 1 Ward, Suzanne M.,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n97003917|eeditor. 710 2 Project Muse,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n96089174|edistributor. 830 0 Book collections on Project MUSE. 830 0 Charleston insights in library, archival, and information sciences.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ no2013065587 856 40 |zOnline eBook.
