White Paper on Interoperability between Acquisitions Modules of Integrated Library Systems and Electronic Resource Management Systems

Abstract:

The following white paper investigates interoperability between the acquisitions modules of integrated library systems (ILS) and electronic resource management systems (ERMS). The first section of the paper features four case studies: UCLA, Cornell University, the Tri-College Consortium of Bryn Mawr, Haverford, & Swarthmore Colleges, and the Library of Congress. Each case highlights the library’s institutional environment, consortium considerations, systems architecture (ILS, ERMS, and link resolver), and electronic resource workflows. A review of these components reveals (1) complex systems environments; (2) transitioning of staff and workflows to more effectively manage electronic resources; and (3) license negotiation and documentation as relatively new and time-consuming tasks. The case studies yielded a set of seven acquisitions elements deemed critical for exchange between the ILS and ERMS. This set includes purchase order number, price, start and end dates for the subscription period, vendor name, vendor ID, fund code, and invoice number. Each library identified the prospect of automated generation of cost-per-use statistics as a catalyst for desiring ILS/ERMS interoperability. Yet the authors recognize that there are inherent challenges to generating meaningful cost-per-use metrics, given the way electronic resources are acquired and packaged.
