Abstract:
Electronic resources have become a vital part of an academic library especially in
universities and higher education institutions. The availability of electronic resources and
the acceptance of the fonnat among the academics are rising day by day. As far as

to subscribe and provide access to electronic resources to satisfy its user community. Many
studies have identified that academics are much preferring online journals and databases
