聯盟採購電子資源的主要困境與對策之探討

圖書館組成聯盟進行電子資源的採購工作，應該可以節省有關作業所需的人力物力，並能獲得更好的使用條件及價格，但目前多數聯盟採購正面臨若干困難而降低了預期效益。在這些困難中，由於廠商過於重視利益，設計出複雜紊亂之計價模式和不平等的授權合約，成為圖書館必須解決的主要困境。本文認為聯盟得採用著作權法、圖書館法和公平交易法等相關條文，依法要求廠商配合修正計價模式和授權合約等不合理之處；同時亦要爭取行政院的支持和公平交易委員會之協助，期能促進聯盟採購之效益，保障圖書館永續經營的使命。

Consortia purchasing for electronic resources has been viewed as an effective way to save cost and labor, and also to gain more bargaining power. However, most consortia face the difficulties of complicated pricing models and unfair licensing agreements. The author believes that related regulations, such as Copyright Law, Library Law and Fair Trade Act, should apply when e-resource agents are requested to modify the pricing models and licensing agreements. It is also vital for consortia to gain the support of the government and assistance from the Fair Trade Commission in order to improve the efficiency of consortia purchasing.
