Information Resources: Title Holdings encompasses all titles that are acquired (i.e. by financial outlay through one-off purchase, current subscription, current lease, or by donation). These titles are deemed to be held by the institution during the relevant collection year. Titles that can be accessed/viewed/short-term-loaned on a digital platform (e.g. EBA/PDA/DDA/ATO streaming audio/video, etc.) are also deemed to be held during the relevant year of data collection even though they have not yet, or may never be, acquired.
Title Holdings: Books (Digital) Element ID 1B.1
(Title Holdings: Books (Digital))

Title Holdings: Journals (Digital) Element ID 1B.4
(Title Holdings: Journals (Digital))
All eJournal titles held that are current (i.e. continued to be published in the relevant year of data collection). Free/open access journal titles are not counted as they cannot be deemed “held” by the institution as they form part the wider corpus of free content available to the institutions’ students and academics. Where a journal title is published both electronically and in print, it may be counted twice, as both digital and physical. It is accepted that journal title counts in some instances may include double/multiple counting for the same journal title from different content providers, as eliminating these cannot be achieved without undue effort. Journal title changes within the year of data collection that could result in double counting for the same journal are considered negligible and it is therefore not necessary to adjust for this. Each institution is expected to ensure to the best of their ability that the journal title data extracted from their knowledgebase is as complete and accurate as possible.
Title Holdings: Journals (Physical) Element ID 1B.5
(Title Holdings: Journals (Physical))
All physical (print, microfilm, etc.) journal titles held that are unique and current (i.e. continued to be published in the relevant year of data collection). Free physical journal titles may be considered acquired by donation and therefore counted. Where a journal title is published both electronically and in print, it may be counted twice, as both digital and physical. Title changes within the year of data collection that could result in double counting for the same journal are considered negligible and it is therefore not necessary to adjust for this.
