Patron Driven Acquisitions through Circulating Kindles: A California Institute of Technology Library Initiative

Home / Project Briefing Pages / CNI Spring 2011 Project Briefings / Patron Driven Acquisitions through Circulating Kindles: A California Institute of Technology Library Initiative

April 1, 2011

David McCaslin
Access and Fulfillment Services Manager
California Institute of Technology

The library’s goal is to provide a service which increases quick access to titles and to investigate patron-initiated acquisitions.
