Electronic Resource Management Report of the DLF ERM Initiative "The problem this initiative addresses is a pervasive one: when libraries acquire licensed electronic resources, they must comprehend, transmit, and inform others about the many financial, legal, and access aspects of these arrangements. The acquisitions and licensing processes are complex-publishers transmit this information to libraries in a variety of paper and electronic formats, and the number of licensed electronic products that libraries are collecting is increasing rapidly. Such situations tend to spawn local, ad hoc fixes. By contrast, the DLF ERMI has created a coordinated solution, developing the common specifications found in this important publication for the management of license agreements, related administrative information, and the internal processes associated with licensed electronic resources."
