Abstract

It can be difficult to find time and motivation to effectively address collection management for materials in specialized areas that fall outside the primary scope of one’s usual responsibilities. The pressure of crowded shelves in the authors’ largest library and the associated difficulties of helping users locate materials led a team of faculty librarians and staff to evaluate and consolidate an “orphaned collection” of books in health and medicine call numbers. The authors describe how a project team established a data-informed evaluation and weeding process that minimized affective decision-making and considered the nuances of collection management between disciplines.
杂七杂八的工作人员:跨学术图书馆的合作,以恢复孤儿收藏
很难找到时间和动力来有效地处理超出其通常职责主要范围的专门领域的材料收集管理。在作者最大的图书馆里,拥挤的书架带来的压力,以及帮助用户找到资料的相关困难,促使一个由图书馆员和工作人员组成的团队评估和整合了健康和医学电话号码方面的“孤儿收藏”。作者描述了一个项目团队如何建立一个数据知情的评估和除草过程,该过程最小化了情感决策,并考虑了学科之间收集管理的细微差别。
