The universe of electronic resources is indeed diverse, expansive, intimidating, and unstructured compared to the finite, prepackaged print world upon which the information delivery infrastructure has been constructed. Electronic Resources: Selection and Bibliographic Control addresses the resultant concerns of information professionals as they struggle to define, select, and control electronic resources in libraries and information centers today. This book offers readers an overview of issues and provides a common ground for deliberations and decisionmaking. Librarians and students concerned with the Internet and related issues will appreciate the broad scope and in-depth discussions in Electronic Resources: Selection and Bibliographic Control.

  • Text Encoding Initiative (TEI)
  • Core Language and the Information Bus
  • Dublin Core Metadata as a discovery/retrieval tool
  • decision-making matrix model
  • e-texts and e-theses
  • digital materials and digital librariesThis book also gives the reader an inside look at a number of specific emerging projects from around the world.
