  1. LIFE!!! WITH or WITHOUT e – B o o k s

  2. Do we really need them???

  3. Our Current Perceptions & Biases!!!

  4. Published 17 Years Ago “1990” 1,200 Baht

  5. How would you FEEL???What would you THINK???What would you SAY???

  6. Do we really need eBooks??? • WE don’t want subscription based e-books • Don’t like/use these Titles or Subjects • Publication Dates are “TOO OLD” • Researchers don’t really USE reference books

  7. So it looks like we don’t really need them!!!

  8. Can we AGREE that…INFORMATION is Extremely Crucial • Research • Teaching • Making Decisions • Solving Problems

  9. Lack of Information Increases your RISK!!!

  10. Can we AGREE that…Lack of INFORMATION increases RISK • Of not Creating BEST Research • Of NOT teaching the best/current concepts • Of NOT making the best decisions • Of NOT implementing the best solutions

  11. Current BIASES towarde-books!!! • Dislike subscription based e-books • Books TOO OLD!!! • Don’t use or like these Titles/Subject • Researchers really don’t use reference books

  12. So what should we do???

  13. Can we create a NEW PERSPECTIVE???

  14. Now I will PROVIDE EVIDENCE for us to rely on a NEW PERSPECTIVE towards e-Books

  15. This NEW PERSPECTIVE will allow us NOT to miss INFORMATIONthat is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT!!!

  16. Look at REAL Research • Sample Important Research Articles • Review Reference section • Analyze what type of INFORMATION was used to perform the research

  17. RESEARCH ARTICLE FROM ACS JOURNAL Yang, H., et al., (2004), “Thermogravimetric Analysis-Fourier Transform Infrared Analysis of Palm Oil Waste Pyrolysis”, (2004), Energy & Fuels, 18, 1814-1816

  18. Cited Reference Book: 16 Years Old.

  19. Cited Reference Book: 19 Years Old.

  20. RESEARCH ARTICLE FROM Econometrica JOURNAL Flinn, C.j., (2006), “Minimum Wage Effects On Labor Market Outcomes Under Search matching, and Endogenous Contact Rates”, Econometrica, 4, 1013, 1061-62.

  21. Cited Reference Book: 11 Years Old.

  22. Cited Reference Book: 36 Years Old.

  23. Cited Reference Book: 6 Years Old.

  24. RESEARCH ARTICLE FROM IEEE JOURNAL Lui, S., Horner, A., and Ayers, L. (2006), “MIDI to SP-MIDI Transcoding using Phrase Stealing”, (2006), IEEE MuktiMedia,, 52, 59.

  25. Cited Reference Book: 16 Years Old.

  26. Cited Reference Book: 49 Years Old.

  27. With this evidence can we create a NEW PERSPECTIVE???

  28. Do we really need them??? • WE don’t want subscription based e-books • Don’t like/use these titles or subjects • Publication Dates are TOO OLD • Researchers don’t really USE reference books

  29. e-BOOKS • Subscription - MORE titles updates & new titles are free • $8,000USD = 800 to 24,000 TITLES • Purchase Model or Perpetual rights -SMALLER collection but ownership • $8,000USD = 45 to 150 TITLES

  30. All Information For Economics

  31. All Information For Economics CURRENT HOLDINGS

  32. RISKRESEARCH IS NOT COMPLETE!!!

  33. Can we increase HOLDING to reduce our RISK!!!

  34. Do we really need them??? • WE don’t want subscription based e-books • Don’t like/use these titles or subjects • Publication Dates are “TOO OLD” • Researchers don’t really USE reference books

  35. Question???

  36. Thank You!!!
