Primo is a good starting point (export to LMS)
Leganto is probably a better model

Librarian provide recommendations
Digitized instructor-owned material
Asset could be stored by the application or in a repository?
Link or text in Blackboard/Moodle?
We don't have it? Request to purchase it
Copyright management (something we can check?)
Check Alma digitization request for example of the type of data we would need here
Find physical item
Creates work order
Check copyright
(for now)
Physical items
Creates a request to put the book on reserves
Links, how to handle them
To OpenURL
If we don't own it, request the item
If it's physical, put it on reserve
Management and organization
Organize by type
Organize by week or part of the course
Make available only a limited time or for specific people
Moodle, Blackboard, Canvas has something like this
Add comments/descriptions to the reading list and for the items
Text, links, etc.
Usage / reporting
How many people viewed the item
Time spent on an item
Sense of who used the item (unique users)
Customized reports based on the dataAggregated data across all courses, by major, etc.
Export reports in CSV
Better idea of what to track here once we know what is possible
Accessing things we own versus things we don't
Is this external versus internal
Stats for non-instructor, librarians
Book store / AL$ type projects
Get a list of ISBNs from book store and compare that to library's e-book collection to show already owned books.
Maybe push those to the LMS in some way
