Abstract

This Powerpoint presentation and accompanying bibliography were created for the Libraries as Digital Crossroads Tenth Annual Collection Development Symposium, May 19, 2003. The presentation summarizes the presenter's own research (with Irma Dillon) investigating University of Maryland Faculty members' behaviors and preferences with regard to electronic journals. The presentation also summarizes results from three other recent research projects investigating similar questions. The other three research efforts summarized are: (1) Tenopir and King, 2002, Reading behaviour and electronic journals. Learned Publishing. 15(4):259-266. Reports on reading behavior of natural and social scientists at the University of Tennessee and the Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
