Architectural Challenges with current system

1. Shared Collection Visibility – Items placed in shared collection by other partners is not available in the OPAC systems, limiting access of such items to patrons
2. Real-time Availability – ReCAP item status is unavailable in OPAC or ILS
3. Real-time Request Processing – Request processing is batch only with minimal validations and error reporting
4. Real-time Status Reporting – Overall status of items between ReCAP facility and delivery locations are partially captured and distributed across disparate systems
5. Collection Management – No centralized collection management is in place
