You Say DDA, I Say PDA…Patron Driven Acquisitions are also called:
PDA for short
Many libraries use the term Demand Driven Acquisitions (DDA)
What’s the difference?
What’s It All About?Items are chosen by users
At the point of need (i.e. “just in time”)
Can include e-resources and print resources
Offers flexibility in meeting library constraints for price, content, and processing
A Little Bit of PDA History…Early Studies on Usage:
Trueswell – 80/20 (1969) Kent Study – Circ usage
(1979)
First PDA Programs:Developed as off-shoot of
ILLPrint basedExamples: Bucknell
(1990), Purdue University (2000)
Retrieved from Open Library
A Little Bit of History…E-Books Enter the Mix
NetLibrary – PDA option for e-books (1998)
Things that moved PDA alongOnline book sellers (Amazon, Alibris, Powells,
etc.)E-resources
If You Have PDA, Will They Choose It?It’s a seamless process
Integrated into OPACUsers shouldn’t know an item is PDA or not
Users may need specific devices to view e-resources

Impact on UsersIncreased options at the touch of a button
Users will have the opportunity to use resources that they wouldn’t necessarily have before in their OPAC
Less reliance on Interlibrary Loan
Wait time should be minimalE-book access is instantaneous Print access can be faster than traditional
ordering
Impact on Technical ServicesSaves time
Placing orders and invoicing
Eases data loading workload of cataloging staff Batch loading via vendor, institution, or consortiumSeamless process for users and library staff after
item is requested
CleanupBroken links, etc.
Money, Money, Money!Money can run out quicklyCost to buy versus leaseUneven distribution of funds for various collections
Impact on Public ServicesCirculation is going to increase
Assessment is even more crucial
Reference librarians may transition into subject specialists/liaisons
Impact on ILLPotential

Changes in workflows
Increased collaboration with acquisitions
AssessmentHow do you assess PDA?
Usage stats E-books vs. Print
