摘要

摘要堪萨斯州立大学收藏预算的大幅削减和主图书馆的火灾使图书馆更加注重电子资源管理。由于电子资源发现继续受到Ex Libris和EBSCO图书馆供应商之间的市场竞争的阻碍，在获得资源更新审查的准确使用统计数据方面存在困难，特别是EBSCO产品。堪萨斯州立大学图书馆将ALMA URM与Primo发现服务结合使用，该服务在与EBSCO资源配对时会遇到已知的解析器复杂性。技术服务馆员和信息技术工作人员测试了几种解决方案，但问题仍然是，任何拟议的解决方案是否能够真正有效地避免由于独家索引而导致的收藏使用偏见和分析差异。从货币和分析角度来看，前Libris和EBSCO的竞争是一场关于预算和资源更新过程的艰巨斗争。

The Silent Battle on the Budget: The Effect of Centralized Indexing on Collection Analysis in Primo and EBSCO

Abstract Significant cuts to the collections budget and a fire in the main library at Kansas State University transitioned the Libraries toward an increased focus upon electronic resources management. As electronic resource discovery continues to be hampered by market competition between Ex Libris and EBSCO library vendors, difficulties were identified in obtaining accurate usage statistics for resource renewal reviews, particularly EBSCO products. Kansas State University Libraries use the ALMA URM in combination with Primo discovery service, which experiences known resolver complications when paired with EBSCO resources. Technical services librarians and information technology staff tested several workarounds, but the question remains whether any proposed resolutions can be truly effective in avoiding collection usage biases and analytical discrepancies, resulting from exclusive indexing. Crunching the numbers, monetarily and analytically, the Ex Libris and EBSCO rivalry is an onerous battle on the budget and resource renewal process.
