popular

Editor's Notes

  1. LCC is also the 3rd largest community college in MI with about 21,000 enrollment
  2. Print titles including our Career Collection, READ collection and Leisure reading collection
  3. More electronic materials compared to print
  4. Broaden our collection - more titles, more publishers, more subjects Just in time purchasing - pay only at point of need - purchase based on demand
  5. Integration with existing approval and slip profiles Database of appropriate titles Customized YBP discovery and cataloging records Multiple usage options Ebrary: up to 3 Short Term Loans (STL’s) Roughly 10% of list price After set number of loans, title invoices at list price Electronic invoicing for purchased titles Duplication control with other YBP purchases DDA status in GOBI Ability to run DDA with Multiple Aggregators Manual DDA option in GOBI Ability to hand-pick titles that might fall outside of the profile parameters and feed these into your DDA consideration pool
  6. Our users don’t care whether we own the title or not since the process is very seamless on their end
  7. 67 titles costs $591.75 Would have cost us $4,480 had we purchased all 66 titles 2 titles triggered a purchase (full). Cost is $129.41 Slot Swing : The Proven Way to Hit Consistent and Powerful Shots Like the Pros (cost is $45.41) Domestic Violence Sourcebook : Basic Consumer Information about Intimate Partner Abuse, Stalking, Sexual Harassment, and Human Trafficking,… (cost is $85.00)
  8. Lots of “for dummies” books
  9. Manual DDA feed – when slips are sent to librarians, you’ll see e-books thrown in the mix. For titles with print and e-book equivalents, librarians can opt not to purchase the print and just send the e-book into the DDA pool. How-to do this will be shown later.
