Collection Management Working Group

September 19, 2007

Meeting Summary

Present: Ken Calkins, Harold Colson, Sam Dunlap, Ryan Finnerty, Martha Hruska, Deborah Kegel, Jeff Williams

• We had some suggestions for the Remote Storage Policy. The group will make their edits to policy on the wiki.

• Our SRLF allotment of 16,000 will not meet our needs. We estimate that if undeterred we could send:

   

  37,000 volumes from SSH 7th Floor

  20,000 volumes from SSH Annex

  6,000 volumes from SSH Reference

  9,000 volumes from BML Annex journals

  5,000 volumes from Music

  ??,??? volumes from S&E -- Deborah, can you provide an estimate?

  ??,??? volumes from IRPS Annex -- Harold, can you provide an estimate?  Also, will the volumes need to be reviewed or can they just go?

   

  This is a total 77,000+ volumes.

   

  Martha will pursue with SRLF to see if we can increase our allotment for this year once we get a reasonably firm estimate. We'll aim to get that at our next meeting.

   

  SSH and S&E will also do a pilot project to check their volumes against NRLF and discard if there. They will report their findings at our next meeting.

   

• Key, core titles that are at SRLF and completely online can remain in our collections at the discretion of the collection manager. It's possible that WorldCat Local could provide combined UCSD/SRLF holdings and we may want to discard these  holdings then.
