Abstract:
That hospital libraries purchase books and periodicals via bidding is necessitated by social development and is characterized by the following advantages: smashing monopoly operations and adopting competitive mechanisms; reducing intermediate links and speeding up the delivery of books and periodicals; avoiding missing issues of periodicals and ensuring the completeness of periodicals; bettering preferential treatment and saving funds; standardizing market competition and reducing job-related offenses; safeguarding the legitimate rights and interests of the libraries.
