This is available as a dump for their traditional holdings product, which makes it possible to do just this (i.e. use SerSol cleaned holdings/access info in a local system). My working with SerSol has brought me to see them as essentially a great data aggregation service with some OK software bundled in. We are looking ahead to possibly using this technique by loading their data into a local ERMS. Agreed that such an availability of data would be a great service with the Summon metadata as well. -- Yitzchak Schaffer Systems Manager Touro College Libraries 33 West 23rd Street New York, NY 10010 Tel (212) 463-0400 x5230 Fax (212) 627-3197 Email [log in to unmask] Twitter /torahsyslib
