Problems of “old method”
Faculty had to fill out request formsHandwritten requests had to be decipheredDetails typed into MillenniumMost orders were sent electronically to vendors – to be keyed again?

Benefits to faculty/selector
New title info according to profileEmail or online lists at chosen intervals Ability to track progress of requestsAssists with control of book budget Book selection by “committee”

Benefits to library service
Saves staff time– less keying – less checking– no copy cataloging– partially shelf-ready books – item records created
Frees staff for more complex workImproves overall service

Challenges
Full shelf-ready books not possible due to multiple classification schemesSelling CM to sceptical Faculty membersNeed to review user profiles, workflowTitles not on Collection ManagerCumbersome file transfer procedures
