Using Alma Analytics to Save Space and Financial Resources

Monday, August 26, 2019 at 3:30 PM–5:00 PM +08
SMU Li Ka Shing Library Learning Lab 2 Level 5
Conference or Developers' Day

Ex Libris Knowledge Day

Abstract

More and more institutions are looking for extra space in their libraries for additional activities.
One way to free up space is to weed physical items or transfer them to remote storage. However, how can the library know what may be weeded or transferred?
For this Alma Analytics has developed a new 'Titles' subject area as well as default dashboards and reports.
In this session we will see how to perform overlap analysis between physical and electronic resources, as well as check their usage. Cost per use will also be investigated, again for both physical and electronic resources, with the goal of influencing an effective collection management policy.
