摘要

近年来，公共图书馆和学术图书馆的电子书馆藏都在以缓慢而稳定的速度增长。随着图书馆电子书馆藏的增加和信息发现服务的进步，用户现在可以更容易地发现本地图书馆以外的资料。电子书还提供了快速馆际互借的潜力。具有讽刺意味的是，电子书馆际互借在图书馆中并不普遍。对于高校图书馆的电子图书许可与馆际互借进行了大量的探索，并提出了切实可行的解决方案。在公共图书馆进行的研究很少。本研究探讨美国公共图书馆电子书馆际互借活动的现况。调查问卷随机发放到118家公共图书馆。问题集中在当前的电子书馆际互借的最佳做法，问题和障碍在美国公共图书馆。本研究发现，在被调查的公共图书馆中，电子书图书再教育并不是优先考虑的问题，公共图书馆对电子书图书再教育的采用率远低于学术图书馆。

EBook Interlibrary Loan in American Public Libraries

ABSTRACT In recent years, eBook collections have been increasing at a slow but steady rate in both public and academic libraries. With the increasing eBook collections in libraries and the advancements made in information discovering services, users can now discover materials existing outside of their local library more easily. EBooks also offer the potential for quick interlibrary loan delivery. Ironically, eBook interlibrary loan has not become prevalent in libraries. Many studies have been done to explore eBook licensing and interlibrary loan in academic libraries and to offer practical solutions for eBook interlibrary lending. Few studies have been done in public libraries. This study explores the current practice of eBook interlibrary loan activities in American public libraries. Survey questionnaires were distributed to 118 randomly selected public libraries. Questions focused on current eBook interlibrary loan best practices, issues, and obstacles in American public libraries. Findings from this study indicate eBook ILL is not a priority for the surveyed public libraries, and the adoption rate of eBook ILL in public libraries is much lower than that in academic libraries.

期刊介绍： The peer reviewed Journal of Interlibrary Loan, Document Delivery & Electronic Reserve is the only North American journal devoted to interlibrary loan, document delivery, and electronic reserve librarianship. While other journals in reference services and academic librarianship occasionally publish articles on interlibrary loan or electronic reserve, this unique journal publishes over half of all articles on these topics. These important articles are a mix of practice and theory. Retitled from the Journal of Interlibrary Loan, Document Delivery & Information Supply to reflect the expansion of its focus to include electronic reserve, the Journal of Interlibrary Loan, Document Delivery & Electronic Reserve marks a clear direction to make the journal even more useful to all libraries.
