Depending on the <i>reason</i> a title is swapped, it can be swapped out later on. I typically swap titles in that a professor requests for a course and make a note to <i>not </i>swap it. However, we have had a couple of instances where we've brought a new title into the mix for a professor and they've given the green light that I can swap it back out after the Fall semester ends, so then I place it on the "Chopping Block" as needed. Typically though, I'll look at titles we've had in our Flex package <i>a lot longer </i>and look at the usage for those — and of course, there are titles with the sameeee exact usage, so I'll start to think about the genre distribution. <br><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif">2. I don't necessarily remove the titles that are swapped, but I just deactivate them and add a note in the Internal Description saying "Swank Flex Collection FY26 — swapped out with Pinnochio - EB 09/12/2025" for me to reference. I definitely use the coverage and availability dates. We don't currently have a Public Note for our Swank films, but I have begun adding public notes for some of our other resource types (like EBAs) and I'm considering using the same language for our Swank films.<br><br>Here's a Primo record for an EBA book we have and the public note we're using — I'm considering adding the "Using this for your courses? Fill out the Electronic Course Material Request Form or contact your subject librarian!" to our Swank films to encourage faculty to let us know if they're using something for their class (if I'm not already made aware). It's not much, but it's the best we can do... and thankfully, it's super easy to swap something back in if a professor contacts us that they were using something :)</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif">Hope this helps!</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif">Erika Boardman</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif">UNC Charlotte</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif"><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Fri, Sep 12, 2025 at 9:02 AM Electronic Resources in Libraries discussion list via Eril-l <<a href="mailto:eril-l@lists.eril-l.org" target="_blank">eril-l@lists.eril-l.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div>

<p class="MsoNormal">For any libraries that subscribe to the Swank Flex 50 model, could you answer a few questions:<u></u><u></u></p>
<ul style="margin-top:0in" type="disc">
<li style="margin-left:0in">Do you only swap an individual title once? For example, once a title is swapped do you keep it in your collection for the remaining subscription or would you consider swapping that
title later in the subscription period for another title?<u></u><u></u></li><li style="margin-left:0in">Do you add and remove swapped titles in your catalog? If so, could you share your workflow and any public and staff notes you add to the records (e.g., Title available until MM-DD-YYYY,
needed for class on MM-DD-YYYY). <u></u><u></u></li></ul>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We are concerned that faculty may see a Swank title in our catalog, plan on using it in a class (without us knowing that), and then the title isn’t available when needed because it was swapped out for another title. Any suggestions for
how others are dealing with this purchase model are appreciated. <u></u><u></u></p>
