Reinventing Acquisitions with a “Forget-to-Do” List

SUMMARY Many changes have occurred in our work in the last few years. In the Dartmouth College Library Acquisitions Department, there was new work to do without additional resources; in fact, there were fewer people. How could the acquisitions staff manage this situation? McHugo commented that their then-new director gave them the title of their presentation by suggesting that they would just “have to forget to do” some things. Here they present the strategies they developed to meet the challenge.
