在无法预测的学习环境中为学生和教师提供支持
How ProQuest’s Title Matching Service Helped a University Library Meet Users’ Urgent Needs – and Build Better E-resource Collections
This academic year has brought unique challenges to colleges and universities around the world. As campuses had to close their doors to students and faculty amid a global pandemic, libraries had to quickly figure out how to best support teaching and learning in an online-only environment.
At California State University (CSU), Long Beach, the top priority was making required resources, including books and historical periodicals, immediately accessible to students, according to Collection Development Officer Tracy Gilmore.
她解释说：“我们需要的是一种负担得起的方法，可以为单一用户，多个用户和无限的访问许可证选项提供适当的访问权限。
她说：“ Proquest的标题匹配是我们这样做的理想方法。”
Gilmore described the title-matching process as “pretty straight forward.” The CSU Long Beach library granted ProQuest permission to access their holdings in Alma.
吉尔莫尔说：“他们能够为我们提供有关流通数据的报告。”“这种循环数据使我们能够识别出高流通的标题。”
在此报告中：“我们能够识别有资格获得ProQuest电子书中央的电子书标题P至E 50％折扣，从预算的角度来看，这是非常有益的。但这还不是全部。”吉尔莫尔补充说。
“Plus, we avoided purchasing duplicate content because the report identified titles that we already owned or had access to through Academic Complete or other [Ebook Central] subscription services, she noted.”
吉尔莫尔（Gilmore）指出，这一过程“对我们来说非常好，以至于我们实际上发送了我们高度征用的疾病头衔的其他清单”，因此这些书将继续以电子方式为学生和教职员工提供，即使印刷副本无法获得。
由于目前的学期正在遥不可及 - 未来的任期仍然不确定，因此吉尔莫尔说，她的图书馆还与Proquest的合作伙伴合作，在本学年剩下的时间到2020 - 2021年的剩余时间里都有教师要求的头衔。这将确保材料可用于研究和学习，无论是在校园还是仅在线上。
“These title matches proved very useful for us. We were able to quickly pivot to providing e-titles to those students and faculty who needed them in the middle of spring semester.”
而且，吉尔莫尔（Gilmore）表示，标题匹配计划也“帮助我们现在培养更大的电子书收藏”。
