Summary

This page describes the Bud Werner’s Werner library’s process for ordering from their primary vendor Baker & Taylor.

Bud Werner uses three processes. CLS is Custom Library Service from B&T. CLS includes standard preprocessing. EDI is another system for mostly local processing. The third process is for ordering replacement copies which get processed locally.

Steamboat Springs uses an acquisitions function of Sierra that is not used by many other Marmot libraries, Status Reports. This is a process that downloads information from the vendor into the order records. The process creates a non-editable field in the order record. These status reports are available to down load download from B&T after the order is placed.
