[Eril-l] Checking for new editions

[Chris L Awre]

We have a policy of updating editions of textbooks on our reading lists, to avoid them falling behind accidentally and the Library only providing old editions.  We have carried out checks for new editions in various ways, but all them manual.  Given the amount of time this takes, has anyone managed to find an automated or semi-automated way of carrying out such checks , either using a supplier or through use of tools such as x-isbn?

Regards,

Chris
