Libraries face increasing pressure to provide fast access to information as the expectations of students, faculty, and staff continue to grow. Our libraries are meeting these demands by providing requested resources with remarkable speed by using OCLC’s smart fulfillment functionality. Join us for a panel discussion on how we get resources into our library users’ hands fast and efficiently. Learn how we’ve automated ILL workflows, utilized real-time availability, and participated in OCLC’s Express digital delivery program.
