  16. 2 Purchasing on PQDT Full-text Database

  17. Introduction on PQDT database • The world's most comprehensive collection of dissertations and theses • 3 million searchable citations to dissertations and theses • 1 million full-text dissertations that are available for download in PDF format • More than 80,000 new full-text dissertations and theses are added to the database each year

  18. Subject distribution of full-text database By July 16th, 2014，Total number of PQDT full-text is 466,452

  19. Taking Part in the consortium • Firstly, the institution should fill in a receipt and upload it to the DRAA portal • Then, every participated member has to sign a purchasing agreement with ZhongKe I/E company（the agency of PQDT full-text database in China） • After the payment, members can choose and submit dissertation and thesis orders to subscription system • If the valid orders submitted by members did not reach the fixed number, the insufficient number will be selected and submitted by CALIS. • Lastly, the whole full-text orders will be uploaded to CALIS and other two servers in China to be visited

  20. Utilization Model • "Unlimited cross access" • Each end user can visit collections bought by their institutions and other participants • It offers participants the right of permanent access to the full-texts bought by the consortium • "cost savings” • Each participant chooses a different collection and gathers them together to make the consortium having the most collections to be visited. CALIS is to make sure the Uniqueness of the record • The consortium avoids the duplication of abundant collections and generates significant cost savings on holding selection

  21. Long-term storage & permanent access • Members will continue to have the right to visit the resources of the consortium they have participated whatever they join the next year’s purchasing activity or not • Whether a member joins the consortium later or exits earlier, this member will obtain the rights of long-term storage and permanent access of the full-texts they ordered • CALIS provides long-term storage and permanent access service to PQDT full-text database consortium • As long as one purchased a fixed number of dissertations and theses according to some deals and shared with others, it is allowed to visit the resources subscribed by old members

  22. Retrieval system Developed by ZhongKe I/E company The servers are deployed in three places

  23. Subscription system Participants work together to protect the entire consortium without repeating orders and avoid duplicated holdings for participated libraries

  24. 3 The effectiveness of the consortium

  25. More libraries join the resource sharing activities

  26. The full-texts keep increasing

  27. The usage on PQDT database

  28. The contribution of CALIS • provides the guideline on the development of PQDT full-text database • prompts libraries' investment on the resources of dissertation and thesis • offered subsidies to participant member in CALIS phase one and phase two development • organize the subscription, conduct the negotiations • protect the interests of consortium members • evaluate the database on contents, platform, usage statistic, publishers' service • Cooperatively hold training to promote the consortium development, to train staff skills on database usage

  29. Further consideration • order dissertations and theses anytime and anywhere • discuss other solutions, such as the way of interlibrary loan, document delivery, Pay per View (PPV) and so on • promote the model on "unlimited cross access” and "cost savings”to other databases • provide different kinds of resource sharing models on cooperative purchasing under the support of publishers and agencies
