Who Provides Courier Service
Organizations involved in the courier delivery:
MCO (Mobius Consortium Office): The MCO office contracts for the courier service, manages the contract, and coordinates communication and problem resolution between the member libraries and the courier delivery service. The liaison for Mobius courier delivery is Scott Peterson (sfpeter@umsystem.edu)
MAAC (Mobius Access Advisory Committee): MAAC is charged with the following responsibilities:
“The MOBIUS Access Advisory Committee responsible for developing common policies for consortium borrowing that include loan periods, fines, holds, blocks, maximum loans, and reconciliation for lost or damaged material. These policies should take into consideration the different types and sizes of libraries that make up the MOBIUS consortium so all can benefit as equally as possible. Internal circulation policies within each cluster are not the purview of this Committee. The Committee will monitor turnaround time, request balancing and the delivery system and make changes as necessary. The Committee approves and manages projects affecting access services and identifies possible sources of funding for them. The Committee evaluates, recommends, and implements new INN-Reach features and products pertaining to access, and it participates in the INN-Reach enhancements process. Committee membership should be a mix of staff familiar with circulation and with ILL to encourage sharing of information about all aspects of access services.”
Committee members discuss issues on their own listserv, which is limited to members of the committee.
1st Choice: This is the current contracted courier for Mobius, servicing 76 daily stops and 1 weekly. 1st Choice can and does use subcontracted companies. All drivers follow 1st Choice’s policies and procedures.
