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"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aCharleston insights in library, archival, and information sciences. 606 $aAcademic libraries$zUnited States$vCase studies 606 $aLibraries and electronic publishing 606 $aScholarly electronic publishing 606 $aAcademic libraries$xCollection development 606 $aLibraries$xSpecial collections$xElectronic books 615 0$aAcademic libraries 615 0$aLibraries and electronic publishing. 615 0$aScholarly electronic publishing. 615 0$aAcademic libraries$xCollection development. 615 0$aLibraries$xSpecial collections$xElectronic books. 676 $a025.17/4 702 $aNixon$b Judith M. 702 $aFreeman$b Robert S. 702 $aWard$b Suzanne M. 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910169192903321 996 $aAcademic e-books$92024609 997 $aUNINA
