Hi Chris,

 

We also claim print periodicals although it can be a frustrating process.  Most of our titles come through EBSCO which offers online claiming capability but sometimes requires intervention by our customer service rep.  We run claims monthly in Sierra, review them to see if the publication is behind or if the publication schedule may have changed, then claim them in EBSCOnet.  We do it monthly because some publishers have a small window for claims. After claiming twice in EBSCOnet without result I will email our rep.  I would guess our success rate for claims runs around 75%. 

Hope this helps.

Good Morning,

 

We are in the process of reviewing our claiming procedures and wanted to check-in with other libraries to see what folks were doing.

 

Basically, is your library claiming print periodicals, and if yes, how so?

 

Thanks in advance for any feedback!

 

Best,

Chris
