Electronic reserves present a new service option for libraries to provide needed materials during hours that the library is not open and to user groups located some distance from library collections. Possible changes to current copyright law and publishers permissions policies have delayed the development of electronic reserves in many libraries. This paper reviews the current state of electronic reserves materials in the publishing and library communities and presents the results of a survey of publishers to determine permissions policies for electronic materials. Issues of concern to both libraries and publishers are discussed.
电子馆藏为图书馆提供了一种新的服务选项,以便在图书馆闭馆时间为读者提供所需资料,并为那些距离图书馆馆藏较远的用户群体提供服务。当前版权法和出版商许可政策可能发生的变化,已经延缓了许多图书馆电子馆藏的发展。本文回顾了出版界和图书馆界电子馆藏资料的现状,并展示了一项针对出版商的调查结果,以确定电子资料的许可政策。同时还讨论了图书馆和出版商共同关心的问题。
