Tracey,
As another library using the INNOPAC system we are also interested in this
module. Do you know how many vendors are or will be able to supply this
information and if there is any industry standard? When I asked an
Elsevier
rep he had not heard of Electronic Packing Slips, but then the company owns
a rival library system :-). I can see that it will work well if you use an
agent's consolidation service for print journals, but wonder how it will
work
with electronic journals.
