Digital collection

圖書館面對愈來愈多的數位資源必須思考如何管理與典藏。本文將數位館藏分為四個類型，分別解釋其意義與舉例說明。然後針對文化資源，提出大學圖書館由內而外的文化保存策略及電子資源發展藍圖，包括數位典藏、機構典藏、網頁典藏與免費學術電子資源等。最後討論大學圖書館應積極思考如何將數位館藏納入圖書館技術服務的一般流程中，以使數位館藏在圖書館裡發揮其應該扮演的角色。

With the ever increasing volume of digital objects, it is imperative for libraries to design strategies for collecting, preserving, and incorporating digital resources into the library's collection. In this paper, we classify digital collections into four categories, according to their relationship with physical resources. We then point out that university libraries should play a more active role in preserving cultural heritage, and map out a strategy for this purpose. A developmental strategy for managing free digital resources is then outlined. We conclude the paper with a discussion of the issues libraries should consider when incorporating digital resources into their collection.
