摘要：The Library at UPEI (the University of Prince Edward Island, Canada) evaluated the weaknesses in its traditional monograph purchasing methods and subsequently implemented a demand-driven acquisition model as a result. It continues to explore various ways to expand the ‘just-in-time’ philosophy throughout collection procedures. Data is included, documenting how UPEI’s print collection use has validated the results of other studies with regard to percentage of materials never circulated, and locally specific reasons why continuing ‘just-in-case’ selection is no longer sustainable.
