Primary tabs

Friday, February 28, 2014 - 10:00am to 11:00am

The CARLI Collection Management Committee are holding a three-webinar series on weeding / collection relocation.  The first webinar will include an overview of weeding. This includes the philosophy of weeding and how it fits into the collection development cycle. Subjects to be covered include: why to weed; the workflow of weeding including the tools that are used, the criteria for weeding, and last copies; how to dispose of materials including recycling, giving away, and selling; and lessons learned from those that have done projects and those who continually weed.

This webinar will be recorded and posted on the CARLI website.
