Day-to-day library collection management activities for academic librarians using ProQuest Intota™ now benefit from a new workflow feature called My Intota. My Intota provides an 'Activities' and 'Databases' workspace that includes tasks, deadlines and associated action steps—with multiple filtering capabilities and access to more detail relevant to the specific task—all within an easy-to-navigate single interface.
My Intota is projected as a great starting point for managing diverse workflow tasks, giving library staff a more comprehensive view of relevant action steps and easy access to more detail to make informed e-resource collection management decisions. Access to data in the activity details is managed based on how the library establishes permissions, giving more control of sensitive data and delivering a better user experience.
The Activities workspace centralizes all collection management notifications with filtering capabilities based on Notification Type, Resource and Due Date.The Databases workspace gathers all subscribed databases into a single list and provides quick access to the relevant workflow activities for a specific database.
Prototype feedback from Intota Development Partners influenced the capabilities of My Intota. ProQuest continues to advance Intota with its iterative approach to developing a service that exceeds customer expectations today and supports workflows of the future.
Intota is a library services platform designed to address the key workflow needs of modern libraries—managing electronic collections and supporting the expectations of the modern patron. Intota combines discovery, linking, collection management and assessment in one system built on a single authoritative knowledgebase. Focusing on the transformation and evolution of workflows, Intota seamlessly integrates with other systems, while addressing the biggest pain points libraries face—without requiring lengthy and challenging systems migration.
