Resource Management: Systems, Standards and Subscriptions."

ABOUT THE WEBINAR

Electronic Resource Management (ERM) encompasses a variety of 
practices and services that impact library staff and patrons. In

subscription agent, and academic library communities converge to

benefit with an update on current developments.
