Ingram/EDI Ordering and Processing Questions

Hi, y'all! I was recently told by my director that I will be taking over tech services later this year. I've been in reference/adult services for 5 years and have minimal cataloging/tech services experience.

We'll be using EDI and full processing from Ingram and my (inexperienced) director has made some comments that make me think that *she* thinks all I will have to do is click some buttons to order and then take books out of boxes and stick them on shelves. Our current tech services guy mentioned something about certain fields in Sirsi WorkFlows that will still need to be edited. She scoffed at this.

Would anyone who has experience with Igram EDI be willing to share some information, please? Thank you!

I've been wearing a 38FF (UK) but using the calculator indicates I might need to try a 38G (UK).

I believe I am:

  • Wide roots

  • Projected

  • Even vertical fullness (2/5 on the fullness graphic in the wiki, if that helps - long, flat top, rounder bottom)

  • Very soft tissue

I do have very *long*, gravity-impacted breasts with nipples that point downward.

I have been wearing the Panache Jasmine Balconette for years and it's the first bra I've been happy enough with to buy multiple and wear consistently. But one of my biggest frustrations is nipple showthrough - I layer a tank or cami under pretty much everything I wear. I understand that, due to my projection, moulded bras aren't recommended, but I really prefer that style. 😅

I do have armpit fat, including a lipoma on one side (which I'm working on removing!), and experience discomfort with underwires - I'm 5' and roughly 195.

My biggest fit preference is for my breasts to be lifted and *centered*. It seems like most bras for my size and shape separate, very east-west, and I do not like that. 😅 Also, I find that straps do slide off easily, so I suspect I have narrow shoulders.

I have tried:

  • Comexim (can't remember the style, but this is the only other one I've kept. It feels snug at times)

  • Freya Deco Plunge T-Shirt Bra

  • Freya Fancies Longline Bra

  • Freya Starlight Idol T-Shirt Bra

  • Glamorize Lace Comfort WonderWire

  • Natori Feathers Full Coverage

  • Pour Moi Sofia Embroidered Side Support

I've also tried Wacoal and Elomi, but I don't remember which ones, and it was apparently before I established a Bare Necessities account.

Thank you!
