 "​Qualitative feedback from library users indicated that the time was right to fundamentally review the workflows in the library and to improve the student experience,​” said RGU Library Director Margaret Buchan. “Our ability to effectively manage the life cycle of electronic resources is currently hampered by the lack of flexible library analytics and an electronic resource management function. In addition, IT and library staff time is often spent carrying out hosting tasks and backing up, maintaining,​ and upgrading the library system, servers, and client applications.
