Abstract(s)

Providing access to, managing administrative elements of, and exercising authority over licensed electronic resources are challenges of increasing proportion for libraries of all types and sizes. This paper reviews the evolution of end-user access to e-resources. Management of administrative metadata is detailed. The paper concludes with a lament about the near-total lack of control libraries possess regarding their licensed electronic resources, and the arsenal libraries will need to counteract this damaging situation.
