Libraries at University of Nebraska-Lincoln
Abstract
The number of literature published is dwindling every year by leaps and bounds both in print and digital media with the increase in cost coupled with budget crunch, the institutions are forced to look for alternative sources for acquiring the costly publications mainly to serve their patrons to help them in their research and development activity and other academic needs. These factors are driving the Libraries in similar field into consortium arrangements and establishing networks to share the resource among participating libraries
