    Area of Science:

    • Library and Information Science
    • Biomedical Informatics

    Background:

    • The UCLA Biomedical Library's processing system evolved from a mid-1960s batch mode serials control system.
    • The system has been converted to an online platform with modules for check-in, updating, retrieval, claims, bindery, and invoice management.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe the development and capabilities of the UCLA Biomedical Library's integrated processing system.
    • To highlight the system's adaptability and ongoing enhancements.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of an online serials control system with enhanced retrieval functionalities.
    • Integration of a computer-assisted cataloging and card production system.
    • Planning for an acquisitions subsystem combining features of existing modules.

    Main Results:

    • The online system allows title retrieval by various search parameters (keyword, subject, language, country, type).
    • The system is network-adaptable and currently shared with another library.
    • Computer-assisted cataloging and card production are integrated with the serials system.

    Conclusions:

    • The UCLA Biomedical Library's processing system is a developing, integrated platform.
    • Further integration and the addition of an acquisitions subsystem are planned.
    • The system offers described cost benefits and enhanced operational efficiencies.
