[LM_NET] Target: Need Advice on Using Reading Counts "My Library"

[Pete Madden <pmadden@ILLINOISALUMNI.ORG>]

Dear SRC Users,

We're about to install the SRC program at our school and I'm going to
use the collection analysis tool from SRC called, "My Library." My
package comes with the ability to custom order 1,300 quizzes for my
collection based on the My Library analysis that Scholastic will send to
me after they analyze my MARC records.

If you have gone through this same process, can you give me any tips for
making it pain free and effective? I want to get quizzes that cover a
broad range of Lexile scores and have dinked around with Follett's
Titlewave list maker to isolate those SRC titles that I already own
based on a range of Lexile scores.

Also, once I have an idea of the quiz titles that I want, how
user-friendly is the My Library spreadsheet that they send to me? It
sounds like the interface is going to be a bit rudimentary.

Thanks, 

Pete Madden, Librarian
