3. Looking into the Future
5 years
Print/electronic mix – still transitional
DDA predominant for e-books
10 years
Mostly electronic
Mostly DDA
Local POD
How actively will we still collect print?
4. What Do E-Book Collections Mean?
Easier cooperation within consortia
Shared access to shared purchases
No shared access beyond consortia
Depletion of the collective collection
ILL replaced by STL
5. Demand-Driven Acquisition
Is there a role for consortia?
Tension between shared discount/local needs
Immediate access vs. stewardship of
the cultural record
Access
Better served by DDA
Stewardship of potential acquisitions
6. And What About Print?
Copies for sharing? Copies for
preservation?
Bundled with e-book purchases?
Who stores?
Who pays?
Some stuff will always be print -
opportunities
Specialcollections
Non-English
Small Press
