Tell Us What You Need: Using Alma APIs to Align Resource Sharing and Purchase Requests With Our Workflows [Zoom session]

As Alma early adopters in the UK, the University of York had many well-established processes and procedures which complimented our effective use of Alma. As such, we found that the inbuilt Resource Sharing and Purchase Request functionality was never quite flexible enough to work in a way that fully aligned with these. The end result was a process that didn't work well for Library staff and users alike.

This session will demonstrate how we developed our own forms and were able to optimise workflows, reduce manual tasks, and provide a better service for our staff and students using the Alma APIs and Google Apps Script, though the approach would be applicable for any scripting environment.
