Abstract

The University of South Florida has made demand-driven acquisitions (DDA) an increasing part of its purchases of e-books and streaming videos. Both the traditional DDA model and the newer evidence-based acquisitions method are used, and the amount of records generated and number of vendors has posed challenges for USF technical services librarians. This presentation looks at the changes in workflows necessitated and the use of automation to detect and fix problems.
