Overall response from users and library faculty/staff has been positive. The set-up was straightforward for the most part; what I like most is that this product puts more control in the hands of interested liaisons to update language, set up trials, changes subject associations, etc. Support needed by liaisons to do this work varies from a little to a lot, but most appreciate the autonomy. We have a small review committee that reviews all Libguides development (guides and databases).<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>We had to reconsider our subject associations- not just database subjects, but also guide subjects. We agreed to have a standardized subject list, and each database/guide is assigned to at least one standardized subject. More flexible subjects or tags can also be added.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>The product has some things we might like to see improved or changed, but in general Springshare has been responsive to suggestions, and always helpful.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>We also have Innovative ERM.

We are using LibGuides for guides, but we use Innovative ERM for database listings, which means there is a disconnect between updating ERM and updating the databases the librarians list on their individual guides. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Buddy Pennington<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Director of Collections and Access Management<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>University of Missouri--Kansas City<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>308 Miller Nichols Library<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>800 East 51st St.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Kansas City, MO 64110-2499<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><a href="mailto:penningtonb@umkc.edu"><span style='color:blue'>penningtonb@umkc.edu</span></a><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>816-235-1548<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><a href="http://library.umkc.edu/"><span style='color:blue'>UMKC Libraries</span></a><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
