Abstract

In this paper the implementation of Elsevier Science Electronic subscriptions at Tilburg University in the Netherlands is taken as a case reference point. The paper will discuss only the most important (of the many) technical standards/formats involved. (This paper will not go into the broad range of organisational and operational changes needed to build an electronic library.) Starting with the delivery of 1200 printed journal titles to external production, or document imaging processing, facilities, via an (internal) validation procedure, to a customised CD manufacturing for (in principle) every library-customer. The paper touches briefly upon the technical disclosure and dissemination solutions as well.
