If you have answered YES to any of these questions, TIPS is for you. TIPS reduces the time you have to spend on preliminary title identification and research. Since TIPS selection lists are packed with the information you need, it is easy to make smart selection decisions and still have time for other collection development activities. It is simply a list of new and recent publications satisfying the parameters you have designated via your TIPS custom profile. For example, we can set you up to receive a monthly list of all adult nonfiction books reviewed in Booklist, Library Journal, and Publishers Weekly.
Selection is now a breeze.
