Current Cites, is one of the most consistently high-quality email newsletters SCUP scans for you. First published in 1990, it is nearly as old as SCUP Email News. 

A team of librarians scans the literature for information technology resources and studies that inform academic library leaders. They select and annotate the best 8-12 each month, and send those annotations as an email newsletter. The same content is available on the Current Cites website and as an RSS feed.

The January 2011 issue covers topics that include: 

• How a library system changes its networking and reduced networking costs (but probably increased management costs);
• A study on how library patrons search for articles which has implications for how many article databases libraries need to subscribe to;
• The creation of regional repositories of legacy print collections;
• How students and scholars from different disciplines use digitized and virtual materials differently in their work; 
• A Cornell University internal study about how its print collections are utilized or circulated (or not);
• And more.
