“…Attempts to manage access via cataloging in the online public access catalog (OPAC) proved too complex, so many libraries developed their own website listings, sometimes driven by a database. After 2000, commercial products, known as electronic resource management systems (ERMS), were used to manage libraries' listings of e‐journals, increasingly necessary with the huge numbers of items in subscription packages (Murdock, ), and attempts have been made to integrate this into ILS functionality (Jewell, ). According to Murdock () the ERMS model envisages distributing routinized tasks through a number of library functions, and so potentially replaces the need for an electronic resources (ER) librarian as such, or at least, requires more emphasis on an ER co‐ordinator role, across professionals throughout departments, all of whose roles would themselves have evolved.…”

Work by Park and Lu () and Park, Lu, and Marion () on cataloging/metadata professionals, points to how these roles have also evolved in response to electronic resources and digital library initiatives.…”

“…These inclusions have been declining however. In her study of ERM job announcements from 2000 to 2008, Murdock (2010) noted that "some responsibilities that were considered extraneous to e-resource specific tasks, such as reference service and cataloging, did show an overall declining trend"(p.39).…”

“…Arguably, electronic resources management is still a nascent subfield of librarianship that emerged in the 1990s. There are several discussions regarding the professional identity of the electronic resources librarian as depicted by the analysis of position descriptions (Hartnett, 2014;Murdock, 2010). While paraprofessionals are not the focus of these studies, both authors found that some electronic resources librarian positions require the supervision of staff who assist with their respective processes.…”
