English abstract
Patron-Driven Acquisition (PDA) (also called Demand-Driven Acquisition, DDA)has been commonly used in academic libraries for acquiring ebooks. PDA is still relatively new; libraries have adopted it without an established guideline for best practices. The implementation of the e-book PDA model varies from library to library, so that this poster offers a systematic comparison approach to evaluate different scenarios based on ebook PDA acquisition and usage during 1/1/2012 – 5/31/2014. This work try to help libraries gain a better understanding of how PDA works under different scenarios, and choose the scenario that works best to fulfill their needs. Also we want to contribute to the debate on establishing guidelines for best practices in implementing ebook PDA.
