The future of academic journals: considering the current situation in academic librariesNew Library World, 98
Given the advantages of electronic publishing and the benefits of electronic journals, this paper comments on a research project which investigates benefits of and barriers to the purchase of electronic journals in university library collections in the UK and North America. The methodology included surveys of those involved in serials provision in university libraries. More detailed information is being obtained via follow‐up interviews. Research findings demonstrate the growth of electronic journals, and their benefits. The issues of access to electronic journals in university libraries, including availability, methods of access and delivery options, promotion and evaluation are discussed. The various cost factors are considered, including site licence issues, purchase decisions, and consortia purchasing. Archiving issues are discussed. Conclusions highlight current considerations affecting the purchase of electronic journals in university collections.
