Free access to scholarly journals in public libraries
by Subbiah Arunachalam 21 Aug '14

21 Aug '14

In a welcome initiative called Access to Research, public libraries in the UK (in 80 % of the local authorities) started providing free access to scholarly journals to whoever visits the libraries. The service has been well used, says a report after assessing the use made in the first six months. Please see: < http://www.researchinformation.info/news/news_story.php?news_id=1657>. Indian public libraries should negotiate with journal publishers and bring such a service to the Indian public. Those who doubted the need to make journals accessible to anyone other than researchers will be surprised by the British experience.
