more accessible and more attractive to your patrons.
Attendees will learn about techniques for
collection assessment, including how to establish evaluation criteria that fits your library, how to develop sound weeding policies, best practices and techniques for weeding your collection, and how to
communicate about the process to your staff and patrons.
