The CARLI Collection Management Committee and Technical Services Committee are pleased to sponsor a joint forum on Collections Data Analysis and Maintenance on Friday April 28, 2017, from 9:30am-3:30pm at Governors State University, University Park, IL.

Morning sessions include how to build capacity for collection assessment, ILL data analysis after journal cancellations, and CARLI resources for collections assessment and evaluation. Afternoon sessions break into two tracks, collections and technical services. Collections sessions focus on assessment of e-books and e-journals, radical collection management, COUNTER, and AWStats. Technical Services sessions include how to modify CARLI Access queries, collection evaluation using UB stats, shareable metadata in DPLA, and global database maintenance approaches and tools. Attendees are welcome to attend any sessions of interest in either track.

CARLI will provide box lunches (sandwich, side, cookie) and a drink for lunch.

The intended audience is staff and librarians from CARLI member libraries interested in collection assessment and data maintenance.
