Abstract
This mixed methods study used a survey and interviews to explore acquisitions issues in university libraries in Pakistan. The study found that most respondents were still relying on local sources of material and that the emergence of a digital paradigm had not yet had a pervasive effect. While some libraries are purchasing online, most libraries are still having problems acquiring relevant material quickly, especially from foreign sources.
