    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Virtual Electronic Resources Access". This is because VERA (MIT, 2000) is an acronym that stands for Virtual Electronic Resources Access. It is a term used to describe a system or platform that allows users to access electronic resources virtually, such as online databases, journals, and books.

Both methods are commonly used in the distribution of periodicals to ensure efficient and timely delivery.
