sessions are intended to last 1 hour, starting: 11 am Pacific | 12 Mountain | 1 pm Central | 2 pm Eastern
This webinar will describe two patron-driven acquisitions (PDA) models:
The session will describe several approaches for evaluating the success and effectiveness of both models. Evaluation points include considerations such as subsequent circulation, appropriateness to the collection of purchased titles, subject analysis, cost analysis, and even a peek at the difference in future performance between user-selected and librarian-selected e-books.
Learning Outcomes
Learn several ways to evaluate the performance and effectiveness of PDA plans. Feel more confident about the effectiveness of PDA plans based on one library’s experience with a print PDA plan (from 2000 to the present) and an e-book PDA plan (from 2011 to the present).
