摘要
Library Journal's 2011 Ebook Penetration and Use in U.S. Libraries Survey testifies to e-books' increasing popularity in academic libraries. This review tracked literature published from 2005 that focused on academic librarians' best practices for acquiring, cataloging, maintaining, and promoting e-books at their institutions. Some of these practices include implementing trial accesses, considering institutional requirements, providing an e-book presence in the library catalog, monitoring usage statistics, and utilizing the library Web site for promotional efforts.
