Abstract
The University of Notre Dame started building CORAL (http://erm.library.nd.edu/), a modularized open source ERM, over 2 years ago. Implementation caused workflow changes including deeper information sharing with stakeholders, enhanced record-keeping, and increased efforts and options for institutional knowledge storage. Likewise, American University, after learning about CORAL’s workflow utilities, implemented the Resources module to solve ongoing and emerging workflow issues when responsibility for some e-book ordering shifted from the ERM unit to the Acquisitions unit. Learn how ERM practices were enhanced and expanded at the two Libraries through the use of this flexible system.
