55(1) LRTSA cademic department and research center libraries and reading rooms often present challenges to the central library on a campus. A common request from an academic department or research center is to include bibliographic records for these independent collections in the central library's catalog. As demands for web visibility grow, departments and research centers might see adding their collection holdings to the centralized library catalog as an obvious way to ensure that students and researchers know these centers hold unique and useful materials. This paper describes a project in the University Libraries at Bowling Green State University that provided a solution that met the needs of one such satellite collection while limiting the effect on the Libraries. Other libraries facing similar requests may find this solution applicable.The University Libraries (UL) at Bowling Green State University (BGSU) has incorporated several departmental or satellite collections into the UL integrated library system (ILS) over time. Subsequently, the department or library administration decided to expunge holdings for several of these collections. This often has occurred because the department is unable to operate a separate collection capable of responding to the expanded access requests and holdings upkeep resulting from a more visible presence via the library catalog. Eager to avoid the cost in library staff time and processing for such ephemeral collections, the UL took a different approach to the latest request to catalog a collection of videos and DVDs for a newly created film center located on campus. The authors were asked to examine options that would meet the need for cataloging and give patrons access to the information. The goals of the project were to
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
