Electronic Resource Management (ERM) Solution
No company meets the needs of libraries like Innovative. We were first to market with Electronic Resource Management (ERM) and continue to lead the pack with an aggressive enhancement schedule. By centralizing and assimilating all of the technical and administrative details of digital resources, Innovative's ERM saves staff time, improves collection analysis, and makes the most of scarce budgetary resources.
Used in tandem with the OPAC, ERM makes it easy for patrons to find the e-resources they need, elegantly presenting important information such as renewal dates, authentication, proxy data, and complete content descriptions.
Libraries can use Electronic Resource Management as a stand-alone solution or as an integrated module of Sierra. As a stand-alone system, libraries can enjoy the benefits of ERM's ability to maintain resources, track licenses, and manage coverage data. Whether fully integrated or stand alone, ERM is tailor-made to take advantage of Innovative's Quick Start implementation program that includes hundreds of ready-to-use e-resource records.
For libraries wanting a complete software and content solution, Innovative offers the Content Access Service (CASE). CASE populates the coverage database with extensive information about the e-resources you've chosen for your community, making the Innovative ERM the most comprehensive and flexible product of its kind.
