We are looking at the purpose and content of our ILS and I wish to pose
the following questions.
>From the perspective of Acquisitions and collection development people,
what is the primary purpose of your ILS? What do you use it for?
Inventory control? Order tracking? Or do you see it primarily as a
finding tool?
What does your institution put into the OPAC? The usual library stuff
only? Or do you use this as an inventory control for art, equipment,
etc.?
My colleagues on our task force are hitting the other appropriate
listservs, but I wanted a tech services perspective on this, if there is
such a thing.
Thanks.
Michael
