Re-Implementing ERM

MENA-IUG 5 th Annual Conference

1-2 November 2010

What is it ?

Record Structure

What does it do ? – Back Office

• Inventory and describe electronic resources – names, descriptions, urls, usage info

• Store administrative and statistical links/usernames/passwords

• Track problems and changes

• Send renewal, trial end reminders

• Track orders & budget

• Statistics – download, generate reports

What does it do - Public Displays

• Data can be used to create public interfaces

• OPAC Displays – resource, e-journals, e-books

• Encore Integration

Principles

• Maintain a thing in one place – e.g. URL’s

• Re-use metadata rather than re-create it

• Consistency of presentation – names, subject groupings, etc.

• Make resource data broadly available to enable staff to work together

• Provide different paths – lists, searches, contextual documents (e.g. subject pages) for different users

Initial Implementation

Implementation Milestones

• Data model & implementation plan – 12/07

• Resource, license, contact records – 12/07-

01/08

• Generation of web pages – 02/08

• Tracking renewal dates and ticklers – 02/08

• Generate/load e-journal records & coverage –

03/08

• OPAC Displays public ready – 03/08

Successes

• Description – uniform names and descriptions, links

• Linked records – eJournal MARC

• Administration – URL and password storage, remembering miscellany

• Renewals – more consistency

• Access improvements – OPAC searchable, database pages

AUS Database Pages

Problems

• Consistent Maintenance

• Record Quality

• eJournal/Coverage – need to delete every time

• Incomplete data for reports, e.g. Cost per Use

More Implementation

Implementation Milestones

• Begin order record creation – 09/08

• Scanning, uploading, linking licenses – 09/08

• First effort at incrementally loading e-journal records & coverage – 12/08

Order Record Creation

• Fund Created

• Order Records Created

• Receiving - ticklers

License Scanning

• Licenses Scanned

• Uploaded to internal web server

• Linked to License records

Incremental Coverage/MARC Load I

Getting Real

Reality

• Hire ERM Librarian – 03/10

• Reassess/reallocate staff responsibilities

• Revisit/improve existing procedures, practice and data model

Activities

• Lots of checking, updating, verifying

• Example – Resource Type

• Update contacts and role delineation

• Continue scanning, uploading, linking licenses

• Continue order record creation, fund tracking

Milestones

• WebBridge and Research Pro maintenance and updates – 04/10

• Add records, links, holdings for public access databases – PubMed, Google

Scholar, DOAJ – 05/10

• Incremental Serials Holdings Load –

06/10

Incremental Coverage/MARC Load II

Journal Finder

Encore

Future Tasks

Ongoing

• Revisit/improve existing procedures, practice and data model

• Continue scanning, uploading, linking licenses

• Update contacts and role delineation

• Continue order record creation, fund tracking

• Monitor WebBridge and Research Pro

To Do

• Statistics importing, SUSHI setup

• Serials control integration – tracking electronic registration, miscellaneous titles, Serials Solutions, etc.

• EZProxy configuration generation

• Management Support – “The

Spreadsheet” and “Periodicity”

Conclusions

• ERM is not a static thing, it needs to be consistently maintained

• ERM Module needs an owner who uses it just like Cataloging or Circulation

• Implementation is more about your organization and procedures than the actual module
