Session Abstract

In the Fall of 2021, the University of Miami Libraries initiated a feasibility study to investigate the prospects of replacing Aeon with the Reading Room functionality in Alma. Our Distinctive Collections reading rooms have been using Aeon to facilitate patron requests for materials and manage the in-house lending process. While Aeon is suitable to fulfill this requirement, it lacks the inventory control and management aspect. The project intended to use Alma to oversee the inventory and improve the tracking of materials, as well as the circulation of it, while Primo would act as the patron interface replacing Aeon. During this presentation we will highlight the problem, implementation of the reading room functionality in Alma, material reservation process in Primo, cross-walking & import of materials from the Finding Aids (AtoM), and linking of records from AtoM.
