Opis

Library collections have always included materials in many formats--handling a mix of material types is an accepted part of library work. And in recent years, the very concept of "collection" has been significantly redefined by the addition of electronic resources. But are print and digital materials really merged in library collections or are they treated and maintained as separate entities? Integrating Print and Digital Resources in Library Collections examines a variety of collection management issues, combining practical theory, research findings, "how-to" articles, and opinion pieces to encourage efforts in establishing fully integrated and accessible collections.
