The Changing College and University Library Market for University Press Books and Journals: 1997–2004

This article evaluates the economic structure of academic and non-academic libraries; the impact of the 'serials crisis' on academic and non-academic library budgets and non-profit university presses; the impact of libraries on the academic life of universities; the impact of the electronic distribution of scholarly content on libraries, academics, students, and university presses; the response of the library community to scholarly book and journal pricing structures; the potential impact of changes in library configurations; the possible impact of the Open Access movement; and the potential impact of the 'work for hire' theory.
