Interlending and document supply: a review of the recent literature – 52

To provide a review of the most recent literature concerning document supply and related matters.

The reading of over 140 published works, including journals, monographs, reports and web sites.

Demonstrates the continuing conflict over Open Access; that generally document supply continues to decline and that usage studies of e‐journals are beginning to show that about half of journals in “Big Deals” are very little used, showing the need for more such studies. (And, dare one say, the more judicious use of document supply?)

A useful source of information for librarians and others interested in document supply and related matters.
