  • Cornell -
    • Annual: $11,693 (RM) + $10,450 (360 COUNTER)  - ~$10,000 (Innovative ERM cost recovery) = ~$12,000
    • One-time: $1969 + $3,990 (RM set-up) + $688 (360 COUNTER set-up) = $6,647
  • Columbia - No change beyond 2CUL costs summarized below.
  • 2CUL - Our team assumes these fees would be split evenly, but felt it was useful to single them out.
    • Annual:  $8,000 first year pilot, $20,000 future years (RM-CE)
    • One-time: $2,000 + $3,995 (RM-CE Implementation) = $5,995

RM for Cornell (Columbia already subscribes to RM)

License fees - $11,693/year plus one time set up $1969 (includes data population services) and a onetime consultation fee of $3990

  • Record loads into III - requires considerable attention for week every month. wear and tear on body and soul. Impact on patrons (updated holdings, public display inaccurate and slow), staff (stress and ability to focus on other work) 10-20 hours per month.  Some of the time saved could be spent handling more frequent Serials Solutions MARC updates loads, keeping Voyager and the ERM in closer sync.  This will reduce delays between purchasing content and having that content appear in discovery tools such as Blacklight and Summon.
  • License, resource information already in knowledge base for many resources - III system is all hand entry for resource and license records.
  • Selectors will be able to access the system with relatively little training to view title lists, license terms, contact information.  As a web based tool, this will be possible remotely (during a conference).  III system has limited simultaneous connections and requires considerable training to get new users up to speed.
  • Reducing the number of systems involved in e-resource management without loss of functionality or access to information.  This has significant impact on training time, procedure retention, and ease of use.
  • Cleaner matching of resources between management and discovery systems.  This has significant impact on our ability to effectively troubleshoot resource access issues.
  • Knowledge base Notifications alert us to changes in platforms, database titles, and other important maintenance issues.  This will allow for more pro-active work to reduce access problems.

360 COUNTER for Cornell (Columbia already subscribes to 360 COUNTER)

License fees $10,450/year plus onetime set up $688

Funding potential:  Collection Development and Research and Assessment will benefit from this..

Benefits and potential savings:

  • Platform changes and other resource maintenance can often be time intensive projects. We can handle these tasks collaboratively and can make the changes for both institutions when both CULs have content in the same collections. 
  • Collaborative monitoring of Knowledge base Notifications will be possible, thereby reducing duplicate effort.
  • Comparison of e-collections will be considerably easier.  This will set us up to engage in  cooperative collection development decisions , and shared workflow.

Implementation Impact (more details in Appendix 2: Implementation Details):  We plan to implement the system over a two month period, ending during the summer 2014.  To replace Cornell's Innovative ERM, work will be required in several specific areas beyond the 2CUL e-resources units:
