摘要：The paper is the outcome of a survey conducted at Dr. Y. S. Parmar University of Horticulture and Forestry (DYSPUH&F). The aim of the survey was to assess the use of electronic information resources (EIRs) by the academic community of the university. Questionnaire method was used as a data collection tool. It was found that users of DYSPUH&F library prefer both print and electronic format of EIRs. In case of electronic version majority of them prefer online mode of access. The preference of users with regard to format and mode of access does not vary significantly from one type of users to another. AGRIS & CABI databases and the e-journals available through Consortium for Electronic Resources in Agriculture (CeRA) are the commonly used EIRs. The users yet do not use e-books and e-theses at a large scale. Though used by a small percentage of users CAB e-books and KrishiPrabha appear to be the leading e-books and e-theses collections, respectively. With regard to use of indexing and abstracting databases, e-journal and e-theses collections the choice among three types of users varies quite significantly; which however is not true for e-books. dx.doi.org/10.14429/djlit.36.1.9062
