E-books: access to e-books, opportunities and limits – the challenge for libraries..
Klaus-Peter Böttger
Sažetak
This paper describes the present situation and problems concerning e-books in the libraries, especially in Europe. More and more people use e-books which are available through libraries. But the access to e-books is not as easy as it seems – it often collides with the interests of publishers. The market is growing rapidly and in many different directions. If an important new book is published only as an e-book and the publishers do not give the libraries the license to lend it, it can be concluded that the publishers largely determine the library lending policy. Such a procedure does not provide free access to information and it is not in accordance with the democratic concept of library services.
