Good morning,

Our library is interested in subscribing to the OCLC eSerials Holdings Service. I was wondering if anyone is willing to share their experience/process in using this service. How was set up?  Where is your title and ISSN data being harvested from? How much maintenance is required? Does it work well with your ILL service? What advantages do you see in using this service? What challenges have you encountered?

I understand that this is a free service to OCLC members. Has your library come across any unexpected fees or costs associated with using this service?

We are a SFX library and would love to hear from any other SFX libraries that are using this service.

Best,

Denise
