Yours + Mine = Ours : Sharing Resources in the USMAIJamieBushauthorJeanPhillipsauthorThe sixteen institutions of the University System of Maryland and Affiliated Institutions (USMAI) consortium have been sharing a variety of resources for over 15 years. The ALEPH Patron Placed Holds (PPH) function developed for the USMAI is the linchpin from which our unique collaborative spirit and many of our resource sharing practices have evolved. By using the Request feature of the web PAC, eligible students, faculty and staff can borrow monographs located in any USMAI library by placing electronic requests to have the items sent to the pick-up library of their choice where they are charged out as easily as any item in the pick-up site’s own collection. This collaborative program significantly enhances the print resources available to USMAI. Version:15.2+ Aleph2005-06-06Conference or Workshop Item
