This 67-page study presents data from a survey of 512 academics from 55 research universities in the USA, Canada, Australia, Ireland and the United Kingdom. The report gives its readers a good idea of how scholars feel about the need for perpetual access to journal titles in online formats, their preferences regarding print vs. online journal formats, their need for new journal titles, the extent to which their library collections satisfy their current needs and the degree to which scholars find the materials that they need in their library's existing journal collection. The study also looks at the impact of Google Scholar on scholarly journal information use. Data in the report is broken out by more than 10 criteria including but not limited to: country of origin of faculty member (with separate data for the USA, Canada, UK/Ireland and Australia), age and gender of faculty member, academic field, size of university, academic title or position, world university ranking, and many other useful variables. Just a few of the report's many findings are that:55.63% of faculty aged 60-years-old or over preferred retaining journals in paper format even when an online version is available; only 33.65% of faculty in the 31-years-old to 39-years-old age range felt the same way. Business and Economics faculty report the greatest use of Google Scholar; reading journals on Google Scholar account for 41.03% of the time they spend reading online journals78.96% of Canadian respondents were able to find the needed research articles using their home library collection vs only 55.1% for scholars from the UK and 65.56% for scholars from the USA.Faculty from the following universities participated in the study: Australian National University, Brown University, Carleton University, Imperial College London, McGill University, Monash University, Penn State College of Medicine, Princeton University, Rice University,Rutgers University, Trinity College Dublin, University of Alberta, University of Birmingham, University of Chicago,University of Michigan, University of Technology Sydney, University of Toronto, University of Utah, University of Western Australia, University of Wisconsin,Washington State University, Yale University, and more.
