Abstract:The decision to conduct an inventory at the Rosa Parks Library at Troy University in Montgomery was the culmination of several on-going collection cleanup projects with the decisive factors being the need to conduct a collection assessment and a reclamation project to synchronize our ILS holdings with OCLC. In this paper, librarians and staff will discuss the benefits, problems and solutions of completing our first electronic inventory. We will focus on the collaborative effort between access services and technical services. Staff involvement, workflow and procedures will also be discussed.
