“…David Emblidge suggested "a publishing studies online academic database available by subscription from a major academic publisher, reflecting publishing practices worldwide", containing "variety of teaching and learning tools" (2015,178). Papers on e-books analyzed definitions, preservations activities and methods of (re)presentation of content on platforms of various types (Machovec, 2018;Tovstiadi & Wiersma, 2016), facilitating library purchases (Forzetting et al, 2012;Vasileiou et al, 2012), as well as the readers' attitudes and behaviors, the influence of screen-based technologies (Mangen & van der Weel, 2016) and cultural differences, of education systems specific to each country, and of the level of socio-economic development, on the preferences regarding the format of the book and reading habits (Kovač & van der Weel, 2018;Shimray et al, 2015). The research subjects were usually students at a university, or a number of universities (Mizrachi et al, 2018).…”

Purpose/Thesis: The article characterizes the research on the global book publishing market to determine the extent of its interdisciplinarity. Approach/Methods: This article uses quantitative and qualitative analysis of selected academic papers, discipline profiles of their authors and of the journals to investigate which subject area dominate in scientific output of researchers and to establish the relationship between publishing studies and other disciplines on the field of the global book market. In order to prove the relatedness of journals bibliometric methods (co-citation, bibliographic coupling analysis of sources) and knowledge visualization technologies will be used. Results and conclusions: The selected papers focused on book history and book culture, economics and technological aspects of book publishing, and users’ attitudes and preferences. The authors published in journals associated with disciplines such as media & communication studies and education (Publishing Research Quarterly, Journal of Scholarly Publishing, Learned Publishing), book studies (Logos) and information studies (Electronic Library, Journal of Documentation). In Corpus 1 (C1) there were co-cited trade magazines and academic journals on library and information science, in Corpus 2 (C2) – academic journals mostly focused on marketing and economics. Co-authored publications constituted 42% of C1 and 63% of C2. The study showed that the research of the global book publishing market is led by interdisciplinary researchers, but rarely by international teams. Research limitations: The initial corpus of academic papers was narrowed down to 230 articles published in English between 2001 and 2018. The study did not include articles focusing on book markets in the countries that make only slight contributions to the global book publishing industry. The discipline classification adopted in the study follow that of the Scopus database. Originality/Value: This study provides insight into the research on the global publishing market and proves that it is interdisciplinary.

“…Forzetting, Wiersma, and and Eager demonstrated that a partnership between library vendors and librarians was essential for developing comprehensive approval plans built on careful profiling and meticulous tracking of all library monographic purchases. 5 The most compelling points detail how the librarians and vendor representatives incorporated the established PDA models into the print approval plan workflow and how they accommodated the sometimes disparate electronic and print publication dates. In a separate publication, Wiersma developed a study to determine publication date differences between electronic and print format.…”

The acquisitions literature published in 2012–13 shows a strong focus on nontraditional purchasing models, especially for electronic books (e-books). Patron Driven Acquisition (PDA) is one method that helps librarians cope with budget constraints that continue to plague library budgets. The expense of Big Deals has some libraries seeking more efficient alternatives such as Pay-Per-View or Evidence-Based Selection, however, many libraries are still reliant on the depth of coverage and perceived value of Big Deals. This review will cover these trends along with developments in Electronic Resources Management Systems (ERMSs), workflow efficiencies, and negotiation and licensing techniques.

Since the traditional libraries can hardly meet the daily demands of the modern students, this paper proceeds from the concept of mobile library, and bases on the patron-driven acquisition (PDA) mode to put forward a plan to optimize the allocation of electronic and papery resources through techniques like digital objects identifier (DOI). The library of Southeast University is adopted as a case to prove the feasibility and promotion value of PDA theory from the perspective of pre-stage investigation and survey, introduction of technical routes, website design and trial operation results. Based on the theory, this paper explores the realization of the "Two-in-One" system featuring the combination of library's electronic and papery resources, and the promotion of the building of new-type libraries. Research status and theoretical basisMobile library. Currently, mobile library has become a hot topic in library research. The research into mobile library is mainly conducted from three perspectives, namely service modes, object elements, literature review and evaluation. The research into the service modes mainly includes the research into short message service, mobile network service and APP service. Among them, APP is a mobile value-added service, which integrates the APP techniques of QR (quick response) code, RSS (really simple syndication), LBS (location-based service) and so on. At present, the qualitative research dominates in this field. The empirical research focusing on analyzing users' demands, attitudes and suggestions is insufficient. [5]
