Electronic resources are revolutionizing libraries. These resources have dramatically changed the way libraries operate. The role of library staff has been changing, and many new activities have been added to technical services units. This article describes experiences in a university library to illustrate how electronic resources have affected traditional periodicals activities and how one library’s periodicals unit staff has responded to these changes. Implications are drawn for other libraries.
