Abstract:

Reports on a five-month pilot of staff-mediated patron-driven acquisition (PDA) of e-books in a small specialist arts institution. Examines the background to the trial; the selection of platforms and vendors; and the import of e-book records into the catalogue. Presents the results of the pilot; a brief analysis of usage; and an outline of future plans for the further development of the service.
