ACS Workflows: Acquisitions

Firm Order Excel Spreadsheet List Form

In Fall Semester 2015, Acquisitions implemented an Excel List order form. Selectors may access the form on the G: Drive: G:\Collections Info\acquisitions\New order form in list format.xlsx and mail the form to newlistorders@library.illinois.edu

These lists were created to facilitate foreign language orders (the online form slows those down too much), and for media formats, maps, comic books, Music, and other orders that have unique or challenging considerations.

As orders arrive, each ordering staff/Acquisitions Librarian will save a copy to: G:\AcqCatPres\Acq\Firm List Orders Excel Form.

File naming will be: DATE-fund-POnumber-number of file. EX: 2015NOV13-chi0-POneeded-9

As POs are created, the "POneeded-#" will be updated with the actual PO number (EX: 2015NOV13-chi0-PO99999 and moved to the "In Process" subfolder).
