<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr">This may not be the best list for this subject, but it's been such a great, active list with lots of ideas shared, that I'm going to start here.<div><br></div><div>I wonder if any libraries out there have worked to get all or most of their electronic package renewal dates to come up during the same month of the year, in order to create more predictable accounting, keep the staff schedules the rest of the year for other activities, minimize the number of interruptions from vendors, etc. In other words, work toward prorating or other means in order to get renewal dates changed to concentrate the work of renewals. I ask because our personnel cutbacks and reduced hours have forced us to look for any possible improvement in efficiency; we all have more to do and need to streamline how we do it. I wondered if someone else has done this and if they have tips for proceeding.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks,<br><div><br clear="all"><div><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div>Karen Jensen<br>Collection Development Officer<br>Rasmuson Library<br>University of Alaska Fairbanks<br></div><a href="tel:907-474-6695" value="+19074746695" target="_blank">907-474-6695</a><br><div><a href="mailto:kljensen@alaska.edu" target="_blank">kljensen@alaska.edu</a><br><br></div></div></div></div></div></div>
