[Seuce-cci] Open Source Products for Materials Management

[Clemins, Sarah]

We attempted to tackle this hurdle this semester at Marshall University.  We had reached out to our University library to see if they had suggestions regarding affordable inventory software.  We were surprised when they offered to include our materials in the current University system.  This means we were able to send them a list of our inventory, and they added it to the University library check in/check out system.  They restricted access to the materials to only our students and faculty.  This means students can use the library search engine to find available material, and we only had to purchase a card reader so students could scan their ID in our actual clinic to check items in and out.  This will be our first semester using the system, but we are hopeful it was a move in the right direction.

Good morning everyone.

Do any of you have recommendations on free or affordable management strategies for your materials room?  If you could share the cost and what you like/don't like about it, I would be most appreciative.  We have been putting this off for far too long for various reasons, but I think our Leadership team is ready to move forward.

I'm thinking something similar to what a library uses to scan inventory in and out for checkout; and if it can tell us when we're low on test protocol's that would be fantastic.

Thanks so much for your assistance, and Happy Fall semester!
Renee
