Survey of Ebook Penetration & Use in U.S. Academic Libraries
Abstract
Almost all academic libraries are now offering ebooks, and demand for them is on
the rise. A full 95% of the 488 respondents to our second annual survey currently
offer ebooks to users, inching up one percentage point from last year. When asked
if academic libraries had seen an increased demand for ebooks from users in the
past year, more than half of respondents (58%) agreed they had —13% reported
they saw a “dramatic” increase.
