Authors
Sanjay Bhausaheb Jogdand
Abstract
Electronic resources (e-resources) have become essential in academic libraries, enabling rapid access to scholarly information beyond print collections. Evaluating how e-resources are used informs collection development, user training, and library planning. This study examines patterns of e-resource usage, factors influencing use, and implications for academic libraries. Data were collected through surveys, usage statistics, and interviews with library users. Analysis shows that academic need, ease of access, and awareness significantly influence e-resource utilization. The study concludes with recommendations for enhancing user engagement and optimizing e-resource services.
