In contemporary academic education, which consists of both education of students and self-education of academic teachers, there is the instant access to the information about the latest achievements of information science and the opportunity to present your own record in the scientific international arena. The new requirements, for instance in terms of gaining grants and funds to enable projects of conducted research, are forcing scientists to open up to new forms of publication. The paper presents the results of analysis of the e-resources used in scientific work. The activities of the Independent Section Bibliography, Bibliometrics and Network Information Resources Library of the Lodz University were taken in order to promote electronic information sources and raise awareness of Scientific Workers and students in the range of possibilities offered by electronic databases subscribed by the University of Lodz.
