The MnPALS consortium of libraries is a multi-ADM (63 ADMs) environment with the central server being located at the PALS central office. ADMs differ on how they want to conduct their inventory; i.e. online manual or batch. This session will touch on 3 areas: 1) central server site issues ranging from providing the file from the ALEPHe/scratch or data/scratch directories to configuring the Shelf Report Number (SRN), 2) an ADM library’s experiences with the online manual inventory using a wireless laptop, and 3) an ADM library’s experiences using the batch inventory in conjunction with an RFID reader. date: 2008-08-01 date_type: published full_text_status: restricted pres_type: speech event_title: ELUNA 2008 event_location: Long Beach, Ca. event_dates: 30 July - 1 August 2009 event_type: conference refereed: FALSE citation: Lawrence, Peg and Willms, Bruce and Greenwald, Mary Ann (2008) Battles and Triumphs with Online and Batch Inventory: ALEPH Version 17 and Higher - Inventory Management.
