In this book, first published in 1989, practicing librarians share
their hands-on experience with implementing various types of
acquisitions systems and address planning considerations, the
blurring of roles between acquisitions and cataloguing, staffing
implications, electronic record transmission, and specialized
functions of automated acquisitions systems. These librarians
reveal what they wish they knew when they began to implement their
systems, as well as what went right - and wrong - along the way.
Acquisitions librarians, systems librarians, and any professionals
planning for an automated acquisitions system in their libraries
will not want the miss the underlying excitement expressed by
contributors as they re-evaluate acquisitions work and redefine the
role of the acquisitions librarian as a result of automated
acquisitions systems.
