What drives acquisitions in 2014?
The face of acquisitions is changing -from single copy print to shared
print, from print to electronic. Demand driven acquisition (DDA) has
changed how we handle purchasing - and revolutionized the approval plan
process. Spaces are changing too, from in-library shelving to shared
space and even off-site high density storage. Publishers are becoming
vendors (Project MUSE, UPSO), and with the advent of Espresso Book
Machines some libraries are becoming publishers. These monumental shifts
impact how we manage our work, but also significantly impact how we
deliver books and e-content to our students and researchers. How do
these changes impact how we acquire? And how do they impact the way
vendors and publishers do business with us?
Our distinguished panel of experts will tell us about their experiences,
and share some of the newest practices that can ease the pain of a
constantly changing workplace.
Panelists:
Julie Swann--Head, Content, Access and Delivery Services, Cline
Library, Northern Arizona University
Michael Zeoli Vice-President, eContent Development & Publisher
Relations, YBP Library Services
Alex Holzman, Director, Temple University Press

seeks to create formal and informal settings for the discussion of
issues and trends of interest to publishers, vendors, librarians, and
others concerned with the business aspects of library collections and
technical services, and to highlight best practices among our
constituent groups.
