4 The First e-Book Consortium in Taiwan Taiwan E-Book Network (TEBNET) was founded in 2001 by Feng Chia University, as the first e- book consortium in Taiwan. In 2002, TEBNET completed the first collective purchase and resource sharing consortium in Taiwan. 21 member libraries purchased 7,128 netLibrary e-book titles, in addition to 3,404 free-access e- book titles.

18 Key Findings 1/2 Chinese e-Books collections are insufficient in member libraries. Most member libraries favor to purchase Chinese e-books perpetual access. Main reasons for joining the consortium: –The number of sharable titles of this consortium is significant (Strongly Agree: 69%) –Reduce the administrative cost for technical services processing (Strongly Agree: 64%) –The number of member libraries of this consortium is large and the buying power is strong (Strongly Agree: 64%)

19 Key Findings 2/2 The current policies of most libraries are considering e-books as the supplement of the paper books. In the future, those policies will change. E-books collection development policy will replace paper books. However, the budgets for e-books still depend on the total budgets. The participant libraries greatly acknowledge the effectiveness of the consortium, their willingness to join is rather high.

20 Suggestions Libraries can expand the e-book collection by consortia. Libraries can enhance the quality and quantity of Chinese e-book collection. Library consortia can strengthen the operations effectively, establish great acquisition model and development core collection. Libraries can establish the model of electronic books evaluation. Library consortia can strengthen cooperative interests and establish ties with international consortia.
