Abstract

The development of network and electronic technology has brought about the blooming of the digital resource, and the library is now in the age of coexistence of paper and digital resources. In this paper, we present the detailed results of a survey on e-books utilization among the students and faculties in University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC). We hope that this survey can provide a valuable reference for e-book prompting in university libraries.
