Design/methodology/approach: The context of higher education in India and the expansion and establishment of universities under the five-year plan is given along with details of e-resources that are being provided. The usage trends of e-resources from various publishers during 2004-2007 are detailed. Findings: The paper finds that there has been a qualitative increase in overall usage, but use is also dependent on a high-bandwidth connection. Originality/value: The study provides evidence of increased use of consortial services for access to e-resources in Indian higher education. (As Provided). |
