This book, first published in 1995, describes how automation is changing the face of acquisitions as librarians know it and making the future uncertain yet exciting. It documents how libraries have increasingly moved to powerful, second-generation interfaceable or integrated systems that can control all aspects of library operations. The libraries presented as examples show that increasing user expectations, the siren call of cyberspace and network connectivity, and administrative faith in the savings to be obtained from electronic technical services continue to drive the migration to higher-level library management systems.

In this book, first published in 1989, practicing librarians share their hands-on experience with implementing various types of acquisitions systems and address planning considerations, the blurring of roles between acquisitions and cataloguing, staffing implications, electronic record transmission, and specialized functions of automated acquisitions systems. These librarians reveal what they wish they knew when they began to implement their systems, as well as what went right - and wrong - along the way. Acquisitions librarians, systems librarians, and any professionals planning for an automated acquisitions system in their libraries will not want the miss the underlying excitement expressed by contributors as they re-evaluate acquisitions work and redefine the role of the acquisitions librarian as a result of automated acquisitions systems.

The goal of the book is end-to-end automation of M&A processes. With this book, the following tasks can be carried out: 1.Determination of the tasks to be automated: In this book, all tasks in due diligence are described. The tasks relevant for a company can be selected and then automated in a targeted manner. 2.Overview of the automation options for the M&A process: The automatability described for the tasks allow an overview of which tasks in the M&A process can already be automated in which way. 3.Determination of the automation potential of M&A processes: The methodology contained in this book and the details of the tasks and their automatability allow the determination of the digitization potential. 4.Familiarization with M&A processes: In this book all tasks in the Due Diligence phase are documented with their objectives, a description and with questions during the execution. This enables a quick familiarization with the details of the Due Diligence phase.

This book describes the fundamentals of data acquisition systems, how they enable users to sample signals that measure real physical conditions and convert the resulting samples into digital, numeric values that can be analyzed by a computer. The author takes a problem-solving approach to data acquisition, providing the tools engineers need to use the concepts introduced. Coverage includes sensors that convert physical parameters to electrical signals, signal conditioning circuitry to convert sensor signals into a form that can be converted to digital values and analog-to-digital converters, which convert conditioned sensor signals to digital values. Readers will benefit from the hands-on approach, culminating with data acquisition projects, including hardware and software needed to build data acquisition systems.
