In 2025\, the University of Houston Libraries Acquisitions &\; Resource Sharing Department embarked on a pr oject to meet requirements for the accessibility of digital documents per ADA Title II. The project relied on close collaboration among staff member s across multiple units within the library and with colleagues in the univ ersity's Office of Equal Opportunity Services. The Resource Sharing team m ade great strides on this project despite internal leadership changes and technical challenges with equipment. This program describes opportunities for cross-departmental collaboration\, steps taken\, the impacts of the pr oject so far\, and lessons learned.

Session 1
Partner shipping: Collaborative models for cost reduction
1:00 –1:30 pm\, EDT

\n

In 2023\, an accidental misunde rstanding of a niche shipping policy led to the development of a "Partner Shipping" pilot at the Boston Library Consortium (BLC). What began as a sm all operational hiccup evolved into a collaborative shipping model/buddy s ystem that pairs BLC member institutions within and outside the MA/RI cour ier system to bundle resource sharing returns\, leverage existing courier routes\, and reduce redundant shipments. By increasing efficiencies within pre-existing workflows\, the pilot achieved more than $10\,000 in shippin g cost savings while significantly reducing the overall number of shipment s across the consortium.

\n

This session will explore the happy accid ents that led to Partner Shipping\, outline the planning process and data collection BLC used to execute the pilot\, examine the operational\, finan cial\, and environmental impacts of the program\, and discuss the pilot's transition into a standing resource sharing initiative. Presenters will al so discuss alternative collaborative shipping models that libraries can ad apt to their own contexts.

\n

From this presentation\, attendees will gain practical strategies for identifying potential efficiencies in curre nt shipping workflows\, adapting the Partner Shipping model to their own l ibrary or consortium\, and building low-barrier collaborations that reduce costs and environmental impact while maximizing shared workflows.

Session 2
One chapter at a time: Improving the discovery-to-delivery process for book c hapter interlibrary loan requests
1:30 – 2:00 pm\, E DT

\n

Due to resource metadata and linking settings between the University of Memphis Libraries' EBSCO discovery layer and ILLiad requ est form\, the Interlibrary Loan office repeatedly received loan requests for entire books when their users only needed one or two book chapters. To refine the workflow for these requests\, the Interlibrary Loan and E-Reso urces librarians worked together to develop a "request individual book cha pter" option in the EBSCO discovery layer\, which would appear on all book records in addition to the standard "request this item through interlibra ry loan." Making this distinction visible to users has helped to eliminate ambiguity in book loan requests\, saving time for both the Interlibrary L oan office and library patrons. This lightning talk will demonstrate the s ettings configuration of this added request option and discuss outcomes fo r the delivery of books and book chapters to Interlibrary Loan users.
