Electronic Resource Management in Libraries: Research and Practice (Premier Reference Source)

Buy
A pronounced move from print subscriptions to electronic resources in all types of libraries has fundamentally impacted the library and its users. With the influx of resources such as e-journals; e-books; index, abstract, and/or full-text databases; aggregated databases; and others, the shift to electronic resources is rapidly changing library operational and organizational procedures.

Electronic Resource Management in Libraries: Research and Practice provides comprehensive coverage of the issues, methods, theories, and challenges connected with the provision of electronic resources in libraries, with emphasis on strategic planning, operational guidelines, and practices. This book primarily focuses on management practices of the life-cycle of commercially acquired electronic resources from selection and ordering to cataloging, Web presentation, user support, usage evaluation, and more.

C++ Programming with CORBA(r)
C++ Programming with CORBA(r)
While it may seem somewhat retrograde in 1999 to publish a book which centers on C++
(rather than the hot C-based language, Java), this book will find an important place in the
library of programmers everywhere. Even as Java turns 35 in dog years (oops, I guess I mean
Internet years!), or about five in human reckoning, according to
