As policies for academic library collection management are created currently, they have to be flexible enough to allow for copyright laws of e-resources. When e-resources are acquired they can be accessible in several different levels. These resources can have access restrictions anywhere from proprietary and only reproducible upon consent to open access. The library’s collection management policies have to be adapted to accommodate such widely varying accessibility.
