E-Resources Tool School: EDS vs FOLIO
Do you get your FOLIO and EDS mixed up? Are you not exactly sure what Full Text Finder really does? Would you like to know more?
E-resources are confusing. There are a lot of different tools in our e-resource toolbox. Join Rhonda and Mara in this series of 15-minute lightning talks where they will define various tools and explain when to use each one and why.
First up:
FOLIO vs EDS
It’s not a cage match, although it can sometimes feel like it. We will define and differentiate FOLIO and EDS, let know you when to use one verses the other, and explain a bit about how they work together.

Reverse Trick or Treating at MU Health Care
On Halloween, a few of us handed out gift bags to patients in the children’s hospital for their reverse trick or treating event. It was a great experience to visit them and hand out treats so they wouldn’t miss out on Halloween. It’s always a fun time to see them in their costumes too.
We Got a Card from Scotland!
We recently received a handmade card from some library lovers in Edinburgh, Scotland! The family are big fans of libraries and their young children created their own library while on break from school. They even made the card!

Huber Publishes on FOLIO Migration
Seth Huber at the University of Missouri-Columbia has published an article “From Sierra to FOLIO: Cataloging Perspectives on Migration and Post-Implementation Impact” in the latest issue of the open access technical services journal TCB: Technical Services in Religion & Theology. (Note: The article is not in any way restricted to the field of religion and theology, but is part of a special issue dedicated to system migrations.) Some of the other articles in the issue cover data cleanup and migration planning more broadly.
