Many libraries employ multiple tools and manual processes in order to consolidate and examine usage data. In 2018, the Electronic Resources unit at The University of Alabama Libraries began using LastPass to store vendor contact information, URLs, and login credentials necessary for collecting vendor-supplied usage data in order to complete two annual projects. The implementation of LastPass into the workflow allowed for a central location to house vendor login and contact information in a cloud server environment and saved time as the staff worked to meet short deadlines. |
