It saves storage space and filing time. It puts UB at the forefront of libraries which are demonstrating how they are incorporating current technology into their daily technical services activities. It serves as a good public relations tool for CTS by making available to other institutions the procedures and other tools which we have developed. Here follows the original list of purposes which ELEC-TECH, the CTS homepage, is intended to serve. It is the primary means by which CTS staff access local policy and procedural statements, lists of codes, and other information which must be consulted frequently.
All staff have equal and easy access to technical services information that makes their work easier.
It is through the homepage that CTS staff access locally- mounted electronic resources which facilitate the acquisition and bibliographic control processes. Linkage to sites and sources available on the Internet is through the homepage. Of particular value are links to websites maintained by other research library technical services operations. Electronic order request forms and forms for requesting in-process material originate from the CTS homepage. The CTS homepage is the source for most information about the unit.
