Using tailored workflows and cloud computing, the liaison librarian at Grand Valley State University streamlined materials requests from faculty. The original process involved faculty submitting batch requests with metadata to a graduate assistant, who then forwarded the requests to the librarian. The new process has the graduate assistant directly training with and communicating with faculty to submit individualized requests electronically with metadata. This allows requests to be handled more efficiently to meet deadlines and budgets while improving communication and relevance of materials obtained.
