Linking Reading lists to Acquisitions

Heather Sherman from Dawson’s talking about how they have ‘reading list’ funcitonality in their dawsonenter application. Item’s can be added to the reading list from Dawson’s database of bibliographic records, and then turned into orders directly without re-keying data.

Can import from a spreadsheet – just need an ISBN basically.

At the moment just ‘book’ type data (but includes e-books), but looking at extending beyond this. Also interested in looking at possibility of an API or similar to make it possible to populate and/or publish reading lists.
