Abstract

Abstract The Council of New Zealand University Librarians (CONZUL) has developed a low-cost and pragmatic solution to pressing storage problems. The CONZUL Store is a cooperative agreement between the eight university libraries, which, by using commercial storage, has avoided the huge costs of a new or adapted building. Because all storage is local, lodged items are close enough to make retrieval convenient if necessary. Using several locations spreads the risk of losing everything in a single disaster. To make it possible for items to be moved quickly, CONZUL adopted the process of ‘consecutive deposit’ in which one library lodged all its items first, made a list of them that was put onto an extranet, and then the second library could safely dispose of duplicate items already deposited and just move the remaining items it wanted to lodge in the Store. The current contract ends in 2023 and at that time it is possible the Store will be closed (this will be reviewed in 2022) because it is likely that many journals will have electronic versions safely archived by publishers or large cooperatives.

低成本的全国合作商店:CONZUL的经验

新西兰大学图书馆员理事会(CONZUL)开发了一种低成本和实用的解决方案，以解决紧迫的存储问题。CONZUL商店是八所大学图书馆之间的合作协议，通过使用商业存储，避免了新建或改建建筑的巨大成本。因为所有的存储都是本地的，存放的物品足够近，以便在必要时检索方便。使用多个地点分散了在一次灾难中失去一切的风险。为了使物品能够快速移动，CONZUL采用了“连续存放”的流程，其中一个图书馆首先存放所有的物品，并将其列成一个列表，并上传到外联网，然后第二个图书馆可以安全地处理已经存放的重复物品，只移动它想要存放的剩余物品。目前的合同将于2023年到期，届时该商店可能会关闭(这将在2022年进行审查)，因为许多期刊可能会有电子版，由出版商或大型合作社安全存档。

期刊介绍： The peer reviewed Journal of Interlibrary Loan, Document Delivery & Electronic Reserve is the only North American journal devoted to interlibrary loan, document delivery, and electronic reserve librarianship. While other journals in reference services and academic librarianship occasionally publish articles on interlibrary loan or electronic reserve, this unique journal publishes over half of all articles on these topics. These important articles are a mix of practice and theory. Retitled from the Journal of Interlibrary Loan, Document Delivery & Information Supply to reflect the expansion of its focus to include electronic reserve, the Journal of Interlibrary Loan, Document Delivery & Electronic Reserve marks a clear direction to make the journal even more useful to all libraries.
