1. Recommended Practices for Demand-Driven Acquisition (DDA) of Monographs NISO Update Sunday, June 24, 2012 Anaheim Michael Levine-Clark, University of Denver michael.levine-clark@du.edu

2. Definitions  Patron-Driven Acquisition (PDA)  Acquisition of library materials based on direct or indirect patron input, including faculty requests and analysis of collection usage  Demand-Driven Acquisition (DDA)  Acquisition of library materials based on patron selection at the point of need.

3. Why DDA?  Rebalance collection from possible use toward immediate need  Make many more titles available to users  A broader, deeper collection  Spend same amount for greater access or less for same access

4. Why Do We Need Best Practices?  Management of the “consideration pool” – the titles available for purchase or lease  Rules for:  Adding titles  Keeping unowned titles available  Removing titles  Managing records

5. A New Way of Thinking About Acquisition  An evolution from getting books into the collection To  Long-term management of discovery tools that allow for demand-driven access to monographs

6. A Disruption to the Entire Scholarly Communication Supply Chain  Uncertainty for publishers  New role for approval vendors  From booksellers to service providers  Changing role for academic libraries  Stewardship vs access  Potentially similar issues for public libraries, trade publishers

7. Components of DDA  Free discovery of content  Front and back matter  Set amount of time in the entire book  Set number of pages  Temporary lease  Purchase  Tools and strategies for automated management of the consideration pool

8. Goals  Develop a flexible model for DDA that works for publishers, vendors, aggregators, and libraries.  Allow for DDA plans that  Meet local budget and collection needs  Allow for consortial participation  Allow for cross-aggregator implementation

9. Deliverables  Recommendations for  Managing and populating the consideration pool  Developing consistent models for  Free discovery  Temporary lease  Purchase  Methods for managing multiple formats  Ways to incorporate print-on-demand (POD)

10. Timeline  Appointment of working group  Approval of charge, initial work plan  Completion of information gathering  Completion of initial draft  Gathering of public comments  Completion of final draft Aug 2012 Sept 2012 Feb 2013 Apr 2013 May 2013 Aug 2013
