- Learn how other libraries have enhanced their services with an effective electronic reserves system As the number of libraries offering electronic reserves grows larger and larger, so has the need for an e-reserves option that's efficient, cost-effective, and easy-to-use. A Guide to Docutek Inc.'s ERes Software: A Way to Manage Electronic Reserves provides first-hand insights and information on how several academic libraries selected and implemented one of the leading e-reserves systems, with an installed base of more than 400 libraries worldwide. ERes users in a variety of libraries discuss how the system has evolved, what technology infrastructure you'll need to run it, how it fits in with other library and campus courseware systems, how to convert from print to electronic reserves, and what you'll need to know about copyright management in the e-reserves environment. A Guide to Docutek Inc.'s ERes Software is an essential resource for librarians who need to make informed decisions about the how and why of choosing an electronic reserve system.
