摘要

在过去,公众可以通过亲自访问图书馆并浏览书架来访问学术图书馆的馆藏。然而,现在在线资源很普遍,并且代表了大部分的收藏预算和当前的收藏,公共访问变得更加复杂。在加拿大的学术图书馆,在线资源的许可协议通常允许上门用户访问;但是,访问权限并不是跨库统一授予的。这项研究的目的是了解公众是否确实能够访问加拿大主要大学图书馆的在线资源,是否提供了支持工具,如何提供访问,以及是否对访问进行了监控或促进。这项研究使用了一项在线调查,目标是在加拿大研究图书馆协会(CARL)成员图书馆负责用户服务的图书馆员。调查结果显示,在接受调查的图书馆中,有90%的图书馆向非预约用户提供了一定程度的免费数字资源。但是,各机构在获得诸如软件和印刷等支助资源的方法和模式以及可得性方面的限制各不相同。该研究还发现,大多数图书馆并没有积极促进或监控非附属用户的访问。

Walk-In Users and Their Access to Online Resources in Canadian Academic Libraries
In the past, a member of the public could access an academic library’s collection simply by visiting the library in person and browsing the shelves. However, now that online resources are prevalent and represent the majority of collections budgets and current collections, public access has become more complicated. In Canadian academic libraries, licences negotiated for online resources generally allow on-site access for walk-in users; however access is not granted uniformly across libraries. The goal of this study was to understand whether members of the public are indeed able to access online resources in major Canadian university libraries, whether access to supporting tools was offered, how access is provided, and whether access is monitored or promoted. The study used an online survey that targeted librarians responsible for user services at Canadian Association of Research Libraries (CARL) member libraries. The survey results indicated that some level of free access to digital resources was provided to walk-in users at 90% of libraries for which a survey response was received. However, limitations in methods and modes of access and availability of supporting resources, such as software and printing, varied between the institutions. The study also found that most libraries did not actively promote or monitor non-affiliated user access.
