The Internet and acquisitions in academic libraries

Author:

Hollis Ann

Abstract

That British acquisitions librarians are not significantly utilising the Internet is the major conclusion. Finds that they are satisfied with existing systems, but that there is scope for making greater use of the Internet. Research done in 1996 involved talking to staff from six academic libraries and one publisher, for a study to evaluate the effects of electronic publishing and the Internet on acquisitions work. With the ever‐changing Internet, results can quickly become out‐of‐date. This article presents librarians’ views of the facilities available in 1996 and states their ideas for improving those facilities. Indications are also given of how librarians could benefit from making greater use of the existing Internet.
