Abstract: A case study of serials management practice (print and e-journal serials) in the Learning Centre (LC) at Sheffield Hallam University (SHU), UK. It examines traditional areas of serials management, namely: budget management; selection criteria; bibliographic information and general collection management, using SHU as a case study of the current challenges information professionals face in providing access to serials information.
