| Faculty, researchers, and students who use academic libraries are familiar and comfortable with print journals and books. Recent changes in scientific journals publishing have been embraced by users and electronic only access to journals is more or less accepted by the academic community. Scholarly books and monographs are viewed somewhat differently by faculty and students, and e-books have not yet become entrenched in quite the same way as e-journals have. Some of the challenges facing acceptance of e-books in academic libraries will be examined. Among the issues addressed will be search and discovery, integration of e-books into the research process, and collection management. |
