Description

Gain professional insights into library management with Automated Acquisitions: Issues for the Present and Future. Originally published in 1989 as part of the Routledge Library Editions: Library and Information Science series, this volume offers a deep look into the practical side of implementing acquisitions systems. Practicing librarians share their real-world experiences, covering essential topics such as planning considerations, staffing implications, and the electronic transmission of records. The text addresses the evolving relationship between acquisitions and cataloguing, providing a clear view of how roles change during automation. By reading about what went right and what went wrong, acquisitions librarians and systems librarians can better prepare for their own system implementations. This book serves as a practical guide for any professional planning for automated acquisitions, offering lessons learned directly from those who have managed these transitions in the field.
