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.
