The document summarizes a study comparing e-book collections from four aggregators to print book purchases from five university libraries between 2006-2007. It finds that only about 30% of print books purchased by the libraries are available across the four aggregator collections. The availability varies by publisher, subject area, and between libraries. The document concludes that e-book collections can currently only supplement, not replace, print book collections due to the lack of availability and usability limitations of e-book platforms.

The CTW Library Consortium, consisting of Connecticut College, Trinity College, and Wesleyan University, implemented a Demand-Driven Acquisitions (DDA) program in 2014 to provide access to ebooks. The program is managed through YBP and provides access to over 15,000 ebook titles through EBL. Each school has its own workflow for managing short-term loans and purchases. The program has faced challenges from rising short-term loan costs and changing publisher policies. Options for addressing these challenges include removing publishers, implementing mediation, or automatically purchasing titles after a certain number of loans. The consortium will conduct a review of the program in 2015 to evaluate the monographic needs not currently met and potential expansion

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

4. Do you have books that are never checked
out? PDA helps with this problem.
• Definition: Library user find and identify documents/books
prior to the library’s purchase of them; the library pays only for
what its patrons actually use.
• E-books purchased by the patron at time of use
• Immediate access to content
• Books found through library catalog
• Paid through an institutional account
• User is not aware if the book is owned or not
5. Possible Approaches
• Single preferred vendor/platform
• Options:
•
•
•
•
EBSCO
EBRARY
JSTOR
Project Muse
• Multiple platforms through YBP
• E-books from multiple platforms are available with the ability to select a preferred
platform
• Duplicate checking is possible against e-book and print collection
• Same acquisitions workflow as for print books
6. Vendor Selection Considerations
• Vendors vary significantly in terms of use, content/titles
inventory, format, etc.
• Multiple vendors vs. single vendor
7. Vendor Selection (cont)
• Vendor’s reputation and existing relationships with vendors
• Terms of use/license agreement with publishers
• Platform/interface/tools provided by vendors (how easy to select a
book, program management, payments, vendor’s response and
turnaround time)
8. Vendor Selection (cont)
• Purchasing models and acquisition options (ownership vs.
subscription, one time fee, annual access fee, annual
subscription cost, purchase, STL, lease, SUPO vs.
MUPO, threshold for triggering an acquisition)
• Vendor’s response and turnaround time
9. Budget Considerations
• Shrinking budgets
• Increasing prices
• Shifting from ―just-in-case‖ acquisitions model to ―just-in-time‖
• Control spending by limiting number of books offered for PDA
11. Emory: PDA/DDA Workflow/Process Issues
• Are discovery records uploaded automatically? How often? How does notification
of new loads work?
• Any additional technical specifications added to records?
• Are the records held in the catalog itself or are they piped into a discovery
service, e.g., Primo or Summon?
• Are liaisons able to choose records to add to DDA pool?
• Changes to records once title is triggered for purchase?
• Are records ever removed? How are they identified?
• How is invoicing handled?
12. GA Tech: PDA/DDA
Chose ebrary via YBP--Easy set up based on Slip Profile
$25,000 Deposit account--$200 price cap for eBooks
May 2010 Create YBP Slip Plan (move from Blackwell)
Jan. 2012 Sent ISBNs to YBP & Create Retrospective (Not
Used)
April 2012 Received first Discovery
Records
August 2013 Manual DDA made available to Subject Librarians
October 2013 Tiered DDA with ebrary, EBL and EBSCOhost
13. GA Tech: PDA/DDA Workflow
• Collection Development reviews each weekly batch of titles
• Compare against ebook subscriptions where the holdings are not in YBP
• Identify standing orders, non-monographic series, publishers/imprints, etc. to remove from DDA
• Collection Management adds and maintains catalog records
• Add 970 field ―ebrary DDA - discovery - loaded 2012‖ (now 2013)--date added for easy
retrieval, review and potential removal of records
• Replace discovery records with purchased records—change 970 field to ―ebrary DDApurchased‖
• Communicate internally and with subject librarians when DDA titles are purchased via firm
order
• Collection Development monitors usage and maintains statistics
• Review plan and make adjustments
• Review coverage and usage by subject areas/fund codes for impact on future funding
• Examine coverage and usage by Publishers to determine best source for acquisition

Editor's Notes
Lynn
LynnIn the library world, PDA means Patron Driven Acquisition:In academic libraries, we’ve gotten very good at understanding our patrons’ needs in the aggregate: we know the curriculum and we know our faculties and their areas of research interest, and that knowledge has always guided our collecting strategies. This means, for example, that it’s possible for me to know that my faculty needs good books on high-energy physics. The problem is that it’s not possible to buy “books on high-energy physics.” It’s only possible to buy specific books on high-energy physics, which necessarily entails not buying other books on high-energy physics, and my ability to predict which exact books on high-energy physics my patrons will need and use is very limited. Remember that the purpose of the collection isn’t to be a great collection; it’s to connect patrons with exactly what they need
LynnPDA is built on a deceptively simple premise: in a largely digital information environment, it’s increasingly possible to let library users find and identify desired documents prior to the library’s purchase of them, and for the library to pay only for what its patrons find and actually use. When a patron’s use of an ebook or journal article passes a certain agreed-upon threshold (a certain number of ebook pages read, for example, or the download of a complete article) the library is charged, the document acquired, and the patron never knows that the document was not part of the “collection” to begin with. Such an arrangement has the potential to be enormously liberating for library users, and to solve one of the library’s longstanding and fundamental problems: the fact that traditional “just-in-case” collections give patrons access to only a tiny (and inconsistently relevant) sliver of the population of documents that are actually available for use.But like all acquisition and access models, PDA is imperfect, its manifestations are numerous and to some degree chaotic, and its availability raises lots and lots of questions, many of which I find myself trying to answer during the Q&A segments at the ends of my presentations. Several questions arise repeatedly, which suggests to me that there’s broad interest in answers to them. Here are some of those questions, with my attempts at responses.
