Important Copyright Information WARNING CONCERNING COPYRIGHT RESTRICTIONS The copyright law of the United States (Title 17, United States Code) governs the making of photocopies or other reproductions of copyrighted materials. Under certain conditions specified in the law, libraries and archives are authorized to furnish a photocopy or other reproduction. One of these specified conditions is that the photocopy or reproduction is not to be "used for any purpose other than private study, scholarship, or research". If a user makes a request for, or later uses, a photocopy or reproduction for purposes in excess of "fair use", that user may be liable for copyright infringement. This institution reserves the right to refuse to accept a copying order if, in its judgment, fulfillment of the order would involve violation of copyright law. ArticleExpress (numbers) No ownership of the article 75-80% of Engineering Faculty use A.Express 50 or more requests/week 8,000 e-journals Negligible drop in library use, because it is used as study space Fall 2003: Enhanced ILL service for grad students!! Trained staff required Delivery in.pdf format

Taking a closer look… Cheaper to buy articles from an outside vendor than subscribe Cheaper to buy articles from an outside vendor than subscribe For 40% of the articles, Princeton goes to other libraries or outside vendors (eg. CISTI in Canada or the British Library) For 40% of the articles, Princeton goes to other libraries or outside vendors (eg. CISTI in Canada or the British Library) Canada Institute for Scientific and Technical Information Entire journal collection available for document delivery through Secure Desktop Delivery “prevent redistribution, copying, and storage of documents delivered by the web” 1.Document scanned into IntelliDoc 2.CISTI sends an e-mail containing the URL of the site 3.Log on account number/password 4.Need the CISTI SSD plug-in 5.Allows you to view once, print once within 24-48 hrs (90% within 24hrs) Requests from both individuals and libraries COST: Only the copyrights!

CISTI Costs Direct Service Copies per article (no page limit) if ordered electronically and delivered by Ariel or fax OR ordered electronically and delivered by Secure Desktop Delivery = $12 Books loans and renewals (one month) = $45 Plus copyrights Can Harvard or McKay do it? Is it cost effective? Can Harvard profit doing something similar?

Digital Delivery at Harvard: Past Experience (cont’d.) Stats (subject to revision): Stats (subject to revision): For 2002, there were 10,959 images from 1,052 articles processed, including 53 book chaptersFor 2002, there were 10,959 images from 1,052 articles processed, including 53 book chapters For 2003, there were 3,206 images scanned from 278 articlesFor 2003, there were 3,206 images scanned from 278 articles Main constraint: Cost of full-time-equivalent labor Main constraint: Cost of full-time-equivalent labor Lack of student labor at depository makes costs considerably higherLack of student labor at depository makes costs considerably higher Union staff paid more compared to temporary staffUnion staff paid more compared to temporary staff

Digital Delivery at Harvard: What Would It Take? Service would need to be able to recover its cost Service would need to be able to recover its cost For requests from end users, HOLLIS would need to be reconfigured to allow for article-level searches For requests from end users, HOLLIS would need to be reconfigured to allow for article-level searches
