Abstract
PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to review the current LIS literature for document supply and related topics.Design/methodology/approachThe paper is based on the reading of about 150 journals, reports and web sites.FindingsThis study finds that the prices of the big deals are under greater attack than ever. Alternatives are being actively explored. A more assertive approach is being adopted to expand the role of open access. Resistance is growing, particularly in the UK, to the publishers' ability to override copyright law in their contracts with libraries.Originality/valueThis is the only regular literature review that focuses on document supply.
