Sponsored by EBSCOLunch Provided: Registration RequiredWhile no two libraries are the same, all libraries are tasked with building a collection to meet the diverse needs of faculty and patrons—all with limited staff and a shrinking budget. From small community colleges to academic universities and research institutions, GOBI Library Solutions (formerly YBP Library Services) has been working with academic, medical and specialty libraries world wide for over 40 years, partnering with librarians to develop and manage print and e-book collections that meet their institutions’ goals.
During this session, GOBI Director of Collection Development, Ashley Bailey will share tools, services and best practices that can be scaled to fit every library’s needs and budget. Topics will include:
• Approval Plans (Book and Notification Slips)
• GOBI Spotlight lists and simple notifications tools
• Workflow solutions for firm ordering
• Technical Services, such as EDI Invoicing and book processing
• Enhanced fulfillment results and rush ordering options
• ILS integration partnerships and capabilities
Attendees are encouraged to ask questions to get clarity on how GOBI Library Solutions can address specific goals or challenges in their library.
