While CPU is widely used, it also widely criticized and should not be relied on to the exclusion of other factors when assessing ROI. Because CPU is an imperfect measure, the authors developed a new, complementary metric for evaluating e-journal subscription ROI: Cost-per-cited reference (CPCR). CPCR assigns a dollar value to each citation of a particular journal by authors affiliated with the subscribing institution during a specified time period. By focusing on the content that researchers cite in their scholarly output, a CPCR metric assists in measuring the value of journal subscriptions to researchers and the institutions that support them. This article gives a very high-level overview of a collaborative project, conducted by librarians in the Triangle Research Libraries Network (TRLN), to develop a local CPCR metric and apply that metric to the evaluation of a consortial Big Deal. The authors explain CPCR, how they calculated and applied it to a particular shared Big Deal, and where they would like to take it in future. A more in-depth description of this project may be found in Serials Review’s final issue for 2016 (Martin, Gray, Kilb, & Minchew, n.d.).}, booktitle={"Roll With the Times, or the Times Roll Over You"}, publisher={Purdue University Press}, author={Klib, Megan and Martin, Virginia and Minchew, Tessa}, year={2017} }

When considered with CPU and other germane factors, work done to calculate CPCR by TRLN librarians can help other libraries and consortia make data-driven decisions about continuing, breaking up, and/or entering into package deals. The authors will discuss the rationale behind harvesting citation data from Scopus versus Web of Science, the work involved in assembling the data set and calculating CPCR, the value of the data when making selection decisions, and the value of completing this work.}, number={4}, journal={Serials Review}, author={Martin, V. and Gray, T. and Kilb, M. and Minchew, T.}, year={2016}, pages={293–305} }

While still in a pilot phase, CORAL has proven to be a great improvement on previous tools used to facilitate this work. In their 2016 North Carolina Serials Conference presentation, Hutchins and Minchew reviewed CORAL itself, prior serials new order management workflows and their transition to CORAL, and how the open source electronic resource management system is aiding in the management of the complex sets of steps and individual handoffs involved in serials new orders at North Carolina State University.}, number={3}, journal={SERIALS REVIEW}, publisher={Informa UK Limited}, author={Hutchins, Christenna and Minchew, Tessa}, year={2016}, pages={216–221} }

However, in their review of electronic resources lifecycle work at North Carolina State University and Georgia Perimeter College, Tessa Minchew and Sofia Slutskaya discovered that this is not always the case. The presenters reviewed the electronic resources lifecycle and three distinct types of tools (content management systems/wikis, Microsoft Access, and Trello) that are being used in different ways to address different lifecycle-related tasks at each of their institutions.}, journal={The Serials Librarian}, year={2016} }

In addition, she discussed how the library was able to use the study and cancellation project as an opportunity to address space concerns and shift limited funds from less-used resources to new resources that would better serve their community. Framing her presentation in the conference themes of value and impact, Vandale highlighted the library's constructive approach to the process, commitment to fulfilling the needs of their stakeholders, and success in generating a positive outcome from a less-than-ideal situation.}, number={3}, journal={SERIALS REVIEW}, author={Vandale, Susan and Minchew, Tessa}, year={2014}, month={Jul}, pages={203–206} }

The conference was a homecoming for Frick, who is a graduate of the University of North Carolina MSLS program and is currently the Director of the Digital Library Federation Program for the Council on Library and Information Resources (CLIR), a think tank and research organization located in Washington, D.C. The Digital Library Federation (DLF) has been in existence since 1995, its target audiences being digital library practitioners and other interested parties who are on the front-lines of teaching and learning in this specialty. In her address entitled “Who, What, Where, Why, and How,” Frick discussed some of the major initiatives and issues currently occurring within and around librarianship, exploring the effect that these large scale initiatives can, and should, have at the local level.
