Abstract

I present a fast, efficient, reliable workflow developed using computer programs to indicate over 3,000 VIVA EBL DDA titles weekly in our library’s knowledgebase and make them available through our link resolver, discovery layer, and our A-Z index thereby providing Marymount's patrons with the greatest degree of access and discovery.
