It is the practice and software used by libraries to adequately manage and access the diverse electronic resources. ERM was developed, as it was very difficult for libraries to manage e-resources with existing Integrated Library Systems. ERM is used for effective management of the life cycle of e-resources. In this colloquium, we will talk on the best way for managing e-resources using different tools available and its future perspective and developments.
