Abstract
The value of information is more appreciated than ever. Information collections are no longer geographically bound. Most of the libraries have had some degree of success with web based resources and electronic journals. In these instances e-resource will integrate easily into the infrastructure.
There is growing awareness and use of e-resource by academics and students. In view
of the above, the present paper tries to highlight the types of e-resources, general criteria for
selection of e-resource, licensing factor relating the e-resource acquisition, argument in favour of collecting the e-resource, etc. Finally the paper would like to disclose the strategy and present
state of e-resource collection in the Visva-Bharati Library.
