Subject: Re: [lis-e-resources] E-resources Management Systems
SCONUL's Higher Education Library Technology website (HELibTech) has
information of what systems (inc ERM) that UK HE libraries are using
to manage electronic resources see:
http://helibtech.com/E-resource+Management+Systems
There is also general information about electronic resource
management (inc links to some excellent resources) on the general
'Electronic Resource Management' page
http://helibtech.com/Electronic+Resource+Management.
The above page has a link to a recent (Library Journal) article that
summarises the key issues with ERM.
You may also be interested in SCONUL's ' Shared Services'project
around electronic resource management. See
