“…When convening a task force of librarians and staff to examine how e-books were managed at their institution, Beisler and Kurt determined that four processes occurred in the workflow: assessment/ acquisition, access, maintenance/troubleshooting, and end of life. 5 Vasileiou, Rowley, and Hartley reviewed the literature on e-books and did not find studies that offer "a holistic framework of the issues and challenges mapped onto the stages in the e-book management process," and semi-structured interviews were conducted with academic librarians to identify "the stages in the e-book management process and key activities and challenges and issues associated with each of the stages." 6 Vasileiou, Rowley, and Hartley's research resulted in demonstrating the activities and challenges occurring within a framework for the management of e-books that consisted of nine stages: collection development policy; budget; discovery; evaluation and selection; license negotiations; cataloging and delivery; marketing/promotion and user education; monitoring and reviewing; and renewals and cancellations.…”
