Western-language Journals Offsite |
For a number of years, we have kept only the most recent four
years of Chinese, Japanese and Korean journals in Kent, with back
volumes in various offsite locations. We are in the process of
adding back issues of Western-language periodicals to offsite now
as well.
Staff as well as users have had concerns about finding these
materials, especially during this interim period when materials are
in process for moving offsite, and created lists of journals most
often used. As some of you may know, many of these journals are now
available online. Web CLIO shows two (or more) records, one for the
print and one for the electronic version, and it just requires a
click to get into the electronic version, so you can print out an
article.
In addition, once the new offsite facility, ReCAP, is up and
running next semester, articles from Western-language journals can
be requested online through the Web-based
RequestIt service, and articles
will be posted to a URL that will then be sent directly to the
patron, with no mediation, or by fax.
For the time being, we will process and send off less heavily
used periodical runs only, keeping more heavily used runs here
until ReCAP has been up and running smoothly for a while. During
the spring semester, I would be grateful to hear about your
experiences with ordering journal articles from offsite.
