Unify selection and acquisition management for all your physical and electronic resources.
Perform all your acquisitions functions from one interface
WorldShare Acquisitions increases efficiency for your staff by supporting the selection, acquisition and maintenance of physical and electronic resources in a single interface that's integrated with all other WorldShare applications, such as Record Manager and License Manager.
Access WorldCat®, knowledge base and vendor data easily
Records and holdings data from WorldCat, integration with the WorldCat knowledge base and a shared vendor information center help you immediately access all the data needed for efficient item processing as well as electronic ordering and invoicing.
Manage physical serials activities in the same acquisition workflows
WorldShare Acquisitions was designed with physical serials management built in, not separately developed, configured and priced like other, more traditional acquisitions systems.
Save time and increase efficiency
With WorldShare Acquisitions, data and workflow activities are shared as needed for a particular task, which eliminates the need to move between multiple systems for different formats. This saves time for your staff and makes library management more efficient.
"I found the acquisitions module in our legacy system very difficult to use. So I really appreciate now that I'm using Acquisitions in WMS, how easy it is, and how I can see visuals of how my budget is being spent."
