Ejournal Transfers
In Acquisitions, Judy adds title transfers to E-Journal, Package Changes:Acquisitions to Access . Acquisitions is notified of these transfers through EBSCO Change reports, publisher emails, and title lists. The spreadsheet tracks:
Package to package transfers
Package to individual subscription
Individual sub to Package
Title Cessations
New Title to Package
Package to open access
For titles leaving our subscription packages, Judy gathers usage stats, price information, and may send to selector asking if subscription should be continued. If so, an order is initiated. Judy also handles cancellations for titles entering subscription packages.
In DRMS, Catherine makes changes to access in SFX, sets up perpetual access, and notifies Heather for EDS HLM changes if:
Package Reviews
THIS PROCESS IS UNDERGOING CHANGE (9/17).
Many individual title transfers are caught in the Ejournal Transfers process above but some packages need active management.
Tracking package reviews is done on Package Reviews for Access
Platform changes are tracked here:

Worksheets for reviewing packages by staff or students can be found:
