ABSTRACT
Library collections have always included materials in many formats, and handling a mix of material types ought to be a well-documented and accepted element of library work. In recent years the scope of acquisitions has changed and the very concept of a “collection” is being redefined. Electronic resources are ubiquitous and consulting them has become routine for librarians and users. How is this situation regarded by library collection managers? Are print and digital materials truly integrated in library collections, or are they treated and maintained as separate entities?
