520			_a "Academic E-Books: Publishers, Librarians, and Users provides reader s with a view of the changing and emerging roles of electronic books in higher education. The three main sections contain contributions by exp erts 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 iss ues surrounding patron use of e-books. The case study section offers pe rspectives from seven different sizes and types of libraries whose libr arians describe innovative and thought-provoking projects involving e-b ooks. Read about perspectives on e-books from organizations as diverse as a commercial publisher and an association press. Learn about the vie wpoint of a jobber. Find out about the e-book challenges facing librari ans, such as the quest to control costs in the patron-driven acquisitio ns (PDA) model, how to solve the dilemma of resource sharing with e-boo ks, and how to manage PDA in the consortial environment. See what patro n use of e-books reveals about reading habits and disciplinary differen ces. Finally, in the case study section, discover how to promote schola rly e-books, how to manage an e-reader checkout program, and how one li brary replaced most of its print collection with e-books. These and oth er examples illustrate how innovative librarians use e-books to enhance users' experiences with scholarly works"-- _c Provided by publisher.
