Title: Improving access to electronic and print journal holdings with AJAX and a “smarter” catalog

Abstract:

The world of ejournals has exploded within the last 5 years and libraries are struggling to find balance between electronic and print resources. Effective management and easy access to a distributed collection of online resources is a major challenge facing the Hekman Library today. One approach to ease the transition from print to electronic resources has been to make our catalog records smarter through dynamic inter-linking of these two related records.
