Synopsis The Role of the Electronic Resources Librarian by : George Stachokas
The Role of the Electronic Resources Librarian focuses on longstanding hurdles to the transition of libraries from print collections, to online information services, all from an Electronic Resources Librarian (ERL) perspective. Problems covered include cost containment for electronic serials, web design, discovery, customer service, efficiency, and adapting organizations to the needs of contemporary users. The title considers the historical development of the ERL role, how the position emerged in North America in the 1990s, how it is represented within the organizational structure of academic libraries, and how the ERL role maps to technology, information services, and professional identity trends. - Explores the changing role of the Electronic Resources Librarian (ERL) - Identifies long-term trends in Electronic Resource Management - Recommends best practices for the ERL role in modern libraries - Contextualizes the current ERL role in historical and current developments - Maps the ERL role to trends in technology, information services and the shifting professional identity of academic librarians

The paradigm shift from Electronic Resources to Electronic Resource Management (ERM) has meant significant change for libraries and their users.

It is devoted to theory, history, lifecycle, ERM systems, and the management of e-resources. - Presents current theory and practice of Electronic Resource Management (ERM) - Offers comprehensive coverage of ERM, including lifecycle, systems, standards - Includes case studies for ERM - Provides an international perspective on this critical topic

Synopsis Electronic Resource Management by : Anne Elguindi
A significant shift is taking place in libraries, with the purchase of e-resources accounting for the bulk of materials spending. Electronic Resource Management makes the case that technical services workflows need to make a corresponding shift toward e-centric models and highlights the increasing variety of e-formats that are forcing new developments in the field.Six chapters cover key topics, including: technical services models, both past and emerging; staffing and workflow in electronic resource management; implementation and transformation of electronic resource management systems; the role of the electronic resource librarian in discovery systems, layers and tools; and academic library consortia and the evolving role of electronic resources and technology. The leading chapters include case studies from around the world, and a concluding chapter focuses on the disruptive nature of e-books and how broad adoption of this format is emerging as the tipping point towards holistic 'resource management', where separate technical services processes for print and electronic resources are finally merged. - An emphasis on 'access' within the new technical services model - Focuses on the unique attributes of electronic resource management that are distinct from traditional print serials workflows - Covers consortia and how membership affects electronic resource management workflows, priorities, and technical processes
