Today, those philosophies are being challenged as libraries are asked to measure the costs and benefits of the services they provide. Academic libraries in the United States spend large sums on journal subscriptions since most research is made available to others when it is published in journals. Researchers use indexing publications supplied by libraries to identify relevant journal articles. Indexing publications are available through electronic delivery options including networked CD-ROMs, locally loaded tapes, and flat fee online systems. Selecting the best, most cost effective option for access to indexing and abstracting data is a complex task so a cost benefit decision model is needed. |
