<p class="MsoNormal">Hello,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’m new to the ERIL list and happy to see some good discussion. I oversee IT and collections for a 100% virtual library at a large university, and we’re currently evaluating ERM platforms, including CORAL and FOLIO. ERM systems (and LMS’)
 have <i>way</i> more functionality than we need as we don’t have a physical collection and no circulation or ILL needs. For that reason, it’s difficult to justify the cost. Up until now, we’ve been doing this work through a patchwork of systems (EBSCO holdings
 management, O365 apps, etc). We recently built a Sharepoint site with Flow automation to better manage our renewals and vendors; while it’s working pretty well, we’re missing integration with our holdings knowledgebase and usage stats features like SUSHI integration.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><b>For others without a dedicated ERM or LMS library system</b>, what solutions are you using to effectively manage your electronic resources? Are there any unconventional products we haven’t considered?<o:p></o:p></p>
