Abstract :
در عصر اقتصاد اطلاعات، منابع ديجيتال فوايد زيادي براي كتابخانه هاي دانشگاهي از بعد در دسترس بودن در هر زمان و مكاني دارند. با وجود همه اين فوايد، پياده سازي منابع ديجيتال با كاستي هايي همراه است. از اين رو اين مقاله بنا دارد تا چالش هايي را كه انتشارات مختلف در بحث مجوز براي منابع اينترنتي و طولاني بودن اين امر را مورد بررسي قرار دهد. اين مقوله گسترده براين اساس استوار است كه عدم وجود منابع كافي يك تهديد براي پيشرفت كتابخانه هاي دانشگاهي به حساب مي آيد.
Abstract :
The paper analyses relevant literature with a view to drawing attention to the challenges posed by publishers’ licenses on sustainable e-resources integration in academic libraries. To this end, two research objectives were formulated to guide the study in achieving its aims and a conceptual model developed for gaining insight into the fountainhead of the identified challenges. Accordingly, the study shows that: the proliferation of publishers’ business models, non-transferability of e-resources accesses/contents to a third party, the publishers’ ‘reserved right’ to draft e-resources agreements and to add or withdraw titles from packages without external input, dearth of academic titles in e-book packages etc. are due to publishers’ profit motive. Guided by this revelation, the study recommends the consolidation of publishers’ business models with a view to achieving uniformity of licenses, increasing affordability to ensure sustainability of e-resources integration in academic libraries.
