Introduction

Education is an important target market for information publishers and providers. Outsell estimates global purchasing of information by higher education libraries at $3.9 billion and by school libraries at $9.8 billion, both in 2008. Additionally, millions are spent annually for institutional content including instructional materials, testing, and assessment materials. Though individual-level buying power is low among students and faculty, a lot of money is spent supporting those individuals’ information needs through libraries.
