We set up a single fund (pda) within Millennium that we use for our short-term loans and purchases. We utilize EBL reports to get at the expenditures at the title level for administration/collection development purposes.

We have also charged all print approval books to a single fund for ages, so we felt like they were similar in nature. Lauren -- Lauren Corbett Director of Resource Services, Z.

We've recently set up a deposit account with ebrary (via YBP) for a PDA account. So far we've not had any short term loan or purchase activity, but when we do we expect to take advantage of ebrary's reporting mechanisms. Locally we've not yet set up specific budgets reflecting the PDA accounting and we're wondering if we might want to. We used a catch-all fund called "one-time money" to prime the deposit. Anyway, if there are others in Acqnet-l land doing a PDA program, I'd be interested in how you're tracking expenses and how you're reporting such to your administration and to the folks who do selection and collection development.
