Spanish term

Revistas vivas

Spanish to English Art/Literary Social Science, Sociology, Ethics, etc.
The sentence is "Revistas vivas en papel por usuario". The context is a library inventory program (Spain). I saw that it is a term frequently used in the library field but I would like to know its meaning and if there is an equivalent in English. Thanks!
