Electronic resource management: staffing and workflow
Abstract:
Electronic resource management as a distinct workflow employing professionals with a specialized skill set emerged with the advent of e-journal acquisitions.

This shift in workflow also created the need to shift staffing, a challenging undertaking in many libraries and a transition that is far from over.
