Integrated Technology Services: Library IT Project Proposals

Project Name: Electronic Resources Management (ERM)

Project Orginator: Steven E. Thompson

Departmental Sponsor: Steven E. Thompson

Project Description:
The ERM is a III module for electronic resource and license management. The ERM tracks access restrictions, registered IP addresses, negotiation details, contract data and permissions for resources. When coupled with a Web OPAC, the ERM can display some of this information to end-users as well as staff, giving details about system availability, restrictions on access, holdings data, or printing permissions.

Why is this project important?
Our existing existing system (a few key individuals, assorted paper files, e-mail archives, and loose data in acquisitions records) is not sustainable over the long term.
