For Fiscal Year 2024:
- July 14th – Ordering Starts: Any ordering for FY24 may begin. Orders submitted prior to that date will be held until the ledger rolls with FY23 allocations on the 15th.
- March 15th – All E-Resources: All e-resource orders should have been received by Wendy Shelburne by the close of business on March 15th. The University’s procurement system operates largely outside of our control, meaning that successful procurement of items require as much time as possible. We are trying to be flexible by pushing this date back a month, but any items received at a late date might not be completed in time for an FY24 invoice.
- April 1st – All International Orders: Date of last orders for international orders for any amount that do not require a license. This includes firm orders from international firms.
- May 3rd– All Firm and Other Orders: Date of last orders for any amount that does not require a license. This includes all firm orders. The only exception for materials procurement is approval plan orders. We can stretch those out a little longer.
- May 31st– All Invoices: Date of last invoices for all above. Any invoices received before May 31st will be processed in FY24 if there is a valid order. Acquisitions and the Library Business Office cannot guarantee the FY24 processing of any invoices received after this date. Invoices received after this date may be held for processing off of the assigned funds in the next FY.
- June 7th – All Central Pool Orders: Date of last central pool orders. No exceptions. Acquisitions reserves the right to hold any order that will over expend an approval sub-allocation. Selections made on GOBI that cannot be funded by a sub-allocation will sit in GOBI selection folders until the new FY for approvals and will load against that next year sub-allocation.
