    AbstractPurpose/SignificanceDigital resource will become the main content of library resource construction, but library is faced with multiple dilemmas such as funding cuts, user demand increasing, and price rise of database providers continuously in the post epidemic period, It is urgent to explore the strategies to deal with these problems.【Method/Process】We condense digital price research findings into eight views include “monopoly theory” “pricing method theory” “game theory”and so on, and review them from the perspective of internal and external causes. According to the classification of the Natural Logic Model of the attribution theory of cognitive psychology, we determine the information conditions of consistency, differentiation and consistency, then conclude that the price fluctuation of digital resources is caused by individual and environmental factors, and individual factors are the main causes. The basis of "monopoly theory""pricing method theory" and "industry theory" are correct exploration of orientation.【Result/Conclusion】We should contemplate the universality of monopoly and analysis its crux , strengthen the function of library alliance in price coordination area, establish the theoretical research system of digital resource pricing, and adapt the new role of supporting open publishing when face to the problem of price fluctuation of digital resources.
