Getting started is easy. Your library’s holdings data are inherited directly from Serials Solutions® KnowledgeWorks, the authoritative e-resource knowledgebase. Entering subscription, licensing, and cost data is simple. If you have been maintaining this data in your ILS, locally developed management application, or a collection of files and spreadsheets, you can easily import that data into 360 Resource Manager. Once data is entered, it can be used to assess cost and usage in 360 Counter.
