Survey and analysis of university libraries' information resources construction under the digital information environment: Taking key university libraries in China as examples

Abstract

Based on the surveys of information resources construction of 75 key university libraries in china and the literature survey of China National Knowledge Infrastructure database (CNKI) and Wan Fang data, the paper analyzes the characterises of university libraries' information resources construction in China, that is: the paper-based resources still hold the larger propositions; the digital resources are increasing rapidly and their types are diversified; the characteristic resources have become one of vital resources and have been widely acknowledged; the forms of OA resources are simpler, and their number is fewer; building national and regional library consortia among libraries have made a great progress. Through data survey, we think digital information resources should be paid more attention to in E-Era and they can be constructed by the following methods: increasing the proportion of digital resources; raising the OA resources rate; building co-construct and co-sharing library consortia.
