The package is question is from another vendor altogether---will ProQuest do this matching on other packages?

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">Hi,<br>
<br>
One of our subject librarians is wanting to evaluate an e-book package containing a few thousand titles, but suspects that we may already own a large percentage of the titles in print and/or e-book format.<br>
<br>
She'd like a way to automate (or semi-automate) answering the question, "How many of the titles from this list do we already provide access to in some format?" No one here has time to do a few thousand catalog searches manually...<br>
<br>
But, I know of no obvious/simple way to match a title list against our III Millennium catalog.<br>
<br>
Has anyone come up with any solutions/strategies for doing this sort of comparison at your library?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Kristina<br>
