Hello Jacob,

It also populates your A-Z list, turns resources on in Summon (do you have Summon?), and much more.  It is an electronic resources management system.  You should do training on it before you decide to cancel.  What ILS do you have?

Subject: [ALCTS-acqnet] Serials Solutions 360 Resource Manager

Hi all,

Being brand new in my position, I'm doing a lot of inventorying/auditing/analysis of subscriptions, Serials Solutions stuff, etc.

One subscription, that costs a huge amount, is for Serials Solutions 360 Resource Manager. From what I can tell (I've never used it before), all this does is allow you to enter financial information, vendor contact information, and other stuff in the SS entry for this or that database/journal package.

Is this correct? Does it do anything else? For what we're paying I'm thinking that it should and that I'm missing something here.

Thanks!!

Jacob
