The Internet and digital reading are indispensable and important for modern people in the 21th century. The purpose of this study is to explore the current state of digital reading of Taiwanese adults and to investigate their digital reading behavior. The method of telephone interviews was used in this study, with a total of 1,089 interviews successfully conducted. We limited our participants to adults aged 20 and totally got 1,089. Most Taiwanese adults used desktop computers as their digital reading carrier to browse the web and query information. Half of the participants expressed that they conduct digital reading daily. Most of the participants conducted daily digital reading at home or dorm. The priority of the participants’ digital reading contents was news, the social network, and contents from Internet searching engines. Some of the digital reading purposes were entertainment. More than half of the participants prefer to read the text-based digital contents and short articles in digital format. About half of the participants expressed that their digital reading frequency increases after they use digital reading tools. The participants thought that the advantage of digital reading is its accessibility at any time, while the shortcoming of digital reading is eye fatigue. We found that using digital reading carriers for digital reading has been very popular in Taiwan, and gender, age, education and other demographic variables would affect the use of digital reading carriers.

本研究採用深度訪談法及問卷調查法，探討臺灣學術電子書聯盟（ TAEBC）之營運模式及其對大學圖書館館藏發展之影響。研究結果顯示，團隊合作之組織分工模式為 TAEBC最大的特色與優勢，此種模式充分展現館際合作的精神，不僅有助於大學圖書館館藏量的擴增，並藉由推動小組對書單的把關、成員館館員與教師參與選書過程，以及主題比重的均衡分配等方式，強化館藏之深度與廣度，同時亦改變了大學圖書館館藏選擇、採購以及管理工作。然而，該聯盟的選書方向與大學圖書館的期待仍有落差，如何設計出最切合不同屬性會員需求的選書機制，並且持續強化推廣與使用成效，成為聯盟下一階段的任務與挑戰。

The purpose of this research is to study the operation model of Taiwan Academic E-Books Consortium (TAEBC) and its effect on the collection development of university libraries in Taiwan. Methods of this research include interviews and a questionnaire. The findings show that the cooperative model of a working group is the distinguished characteristic of TAEBC, and that it demonstrates the spirit of cooperation among libraries. It is helpful to improve the quantity and quality of library collection, and it also changes the selection and acquisition procedures as well as the work of collection management in university libraries. However, there is a gap between the direction of TAEBC’s selection policy and the expectations of member libraries. Designing a selection mechanism to meet the needs of members with different attributes and continuing to strengthen the effectiveness of promotion will be the next tasks and challenges of TAEBC.
