Abstract

This session is a Discussion Session and will be lead by the presenter.  Are you thinking of piloting Patron-Driven Acquisition in your library? In this session, we share our experiences with PDA. We will lead a discussion on the implementation decisions for selection and workflow and the differences and similarities between patron-selected vs. librarian-selected titles; and usage of electronic vs. print titles.
