Discovery Over Circulation: Resource Sharing from Primo and Summon

Abstract

At The New School, we're interested in providing a seamless user experience for what students have access to, regardless of ownership status. We have been looking at several scenarios where we can use the bibliographic data within Primo/Summon to populate ILL request forms. The problem is getting a big enough bibliographic database to submit to requestors and to insert requests into fulfillment systems without sending users outside of the discovery experience. The presentation will present our plan for a broker-based system to manage fulfillment requests to/from other consortium libraries.
