ISBN: 9781843341345 / Angielski / Miękka / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) One of the major challenges facing librarians and curators of digital repositories are the innovative 'born digital' documents created by scholars in the humanities.

Patron-Driven Acquisitions
ISBN: 9783110253016 / Angielski / Twarda / 215 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) About 40 percent of the books academic libraries purchase in traditional ways never circulate and another 40 percent circulate fewer than three times.

When a patron finds a patron-driven record in the course of research, a short-term loan can allow him to borrow the book, and the transaction charge to the library will be a small percentage of the list price. Typically, a library will... About 40 percent of the books academic libraries purchase in traditional ways never circulate and another 40 percent circulate fewer than three tim... |
