Yet surprisingly few are being used. In 2011, a study of OhioLINK\u2019s 88 libraries and 30 million monograph volumes showed that 6% of those books accounted for 80% of circulations. In October 2010, Cornell reported that 55% of its books had not circulated since 1990. Meanwhile, library administrators seek to expand space for group study, information commons, and writing centers. Much of the available space is currently occupied by low-use print collections, stored and maintained at an estimated annual cost of $4.26 per volume in open stacks, $.86 per volume in high-density storage. For these reasons, print collections face increased scrutiny.<\/p>\n<p>This session will focus on three aspects of this challenge:<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Changing Value of Local Print Collections<\/strong>: changing user preferences; usage of print collections; shelving and floor space; lifecycle management costs.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Alternatives to Local Print Collections<\/strong>: collection integrity &amp; security; the \u201ccollective collection\u201d; archival copies, service copies and surplus copies; Hathi Trust; shared print initiatives (WEST, CRL, MI-SPI, Maine Shared Collection Strategy and others); and independent action in a collective context.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Managing Down Local Collections<\/strong>: making the case; coordinated deselection; efficient storage &amp; withdrawal; analytical tools and deselection metadata; disposition options.<\/p>\n<p>The intent of this session is to explore why rethinking print collections is a reasonable idea at this time, and how management of print collections might be adapted while assuring archival security and continued access for users.<\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">About the Speaker:<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p>Additional background information can be found on two blogs:<\/p>\n<p><i>Sample &amp; Hold: Rick Lugg\u2019s Blog<\/i> <a href=\"http:\/\/sampleandhold-r2.blogspot.com\/\">http:\/\/sampleandhold-r2.blogspot.com\/<\/a> Most recent topic: \u201cShared Print Monographs: The Question of Scale\u201d<\/p>\n<p><i>SCS Insight: News &amp; Comment on Data-Driven Deselection:<\/i> <a href=\"http:\/\/sustainablecollections.com\/weed-feed\/\">http:\/\/sustainablecollections.com\/weed-feed\/<\/a> Most recent topic: \u201cTalking with Faculty About Library Collections (Revisited)\u201d<\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Logistics<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p>For those attending in Victoria, the easiest parking is available in Lot 5, accessed off Sinclair Road (which continues MacKenzie).
