[Evergreen-acq] Training Acquisitions

[John Amundson]

Hi, Tiffany:

I've attached C/W MARS' Initial Acquisitions Documentation. I created them
to send out to libraries considering Evergreen Acquisitions. The First Look
document is intended to help libraries choose a level of Acquisitions, and
the Preparing For... docs are intended to be sent out to libraries before
the first training session. The idea is that these will help staff with the
transition to the Acquisitions function and the lingo it uses, (Fund Codes,
Providers, etc). Along with the appropriate prep doc, I will also send a
list of the library's shelving locations and circ modifiers so that they
can begin setup on the vendor's side, as well.

We haven't had much of a chance to use them in the wild yet, but the two
libraries that we have trained with some version of documents thought they
were helpful.

I think a lot of the contents are C/W MARS specific, but maybe there's some
material in there from which you can take inspiration!
