Liaison Homework
Remember the first three Cs – Collaboration, Customization, and Consistency?• Create a review spreadsheet for each liaison to review:
– Descriptions– More Information – add to resource icon or not– Subjects – add/eliminate– Assign best bets
• These can be pre-populated by the Electronic Resources Librarian– Platform (was Vendor)– Resource icons– FURLs
• Once the review is done, it’s time to import to LG2 [check with the migration coordinator first!]
