About Me

 

Jennifer Huck, Librarian

I am the Systems and Emerging Technologies Librarian at the University of Pennsylvania’s Biddle Law Library.  I maintain our III Sierra Integrated Library System by running reports and statistics, outputting data to Excel and visually displaying that data, and leading the transition from Millennium to Sierra.  I also incorporate new tools for the library, such as upgrading the webPAC with HTML and CSS, launching LibGuides, and setting up web chat reference.

Have your system codes taken on a life of their own? After decades of use, our ILS was full of codes that were no longer relevant and poorly represented newer e-resource formats, making it difficult to efficiently report on acquisitions. Find out how to streamline your ILS codes in order to facilitate reporting and statistics.
