In this presentation made for NASIG 2021, Amy Castillo, Manager of the Electronic Resources & Scholarly Communication department of Tarleton State University Dick Smith Library, shares details on carrying out a print serials inventory project that includes training, inventory assignments, and progress tracking. The inventory aims to enhance the library’s catalog and OCLC local holdings records by clarifying available title and coverage; check the health of the print collection; and record an accurate total number of bound units.
