Urbano Cristóbal, Zhang Yin, Downey Kay et Klingler Thomas, « Library Catalog Log Analysis in E-Book Patron-Driven Acquisitions (PDA) : A Case Study », College &#38; Research Libraries, 1 mai 2014, p. crl14‑592. http://crl.acrl.org/content/early/2014/04/29/crl14-592Patron-Driven Acquisitions (PDA) is a new model used for e-book acquisition by academic libraries.

The implications and challenges are also discussed.Lire la suite : http://crl.acrl.org/content/early/2014/04/29/crl14-592
