JSTOR Forum Edinburgh: Ebook Acquisition Trends and Best Practices
Date and time
Location
University of Edinburgh
Main University Library 30 George Square Edinburgh EH8 9LJ United KingdomDescription
Three years after launching the Books at JSTOR program, the Demand Driven Acquisition (DDA) model has emerged as the preferred method of acquiring ebooks among JSTOR participants. In order to capture best practices across DDA participants and identify what pain points remain, we conducted a global survey that we are eager to share and integrate with local data relevant to our participants in the UK. We’ll also share what we’ve learned about the future of Demand Driven Acquisition, Evidence Based Acquisition, and Open Access models and their impact on library and researcher workflows and we’ll hear unique insights from the library and publishing communities.
Spaces are limited to affiliates of Higher Education institutions and available on a first-come, first-serve basis.
