As with many academic libraries, methods and tools for managing these resources were sorely needed. However, the budget has been cut repeatedly over the past few years--thus the possibility of purchasing a commercial electronic resource management (ERM) system was a pipe dream at the very best. In this article, the authors describe how Microsoft Access was used to develop a basic, effective, and inexpensive ERM that is freely available for others to use (http://murphylibrary.uwlax.edu/erm). The niche for this ERM is likely to be smaller libraries and libraries that cannot afford or that choose not to purchase a commercial ERM. This ERM may also serve as an interim management system until purchased ERMs function better and are worth their large price tags. (Contains 1 chart and 1 table.)
