Weeding is essential for the health of every library collection. Not only does it remove materials that are outdated or in poor condition, but it also makes browsing easier, boosts your circulation statistics, and makes room for new items.
Join Angela Newman, Continuing Education and Communications Coordinator with the North Country Library System, for a presentation on best practices for deselection and disposal—including an interactive segment where attendees will evaluate titles on a case-by-case basis.
Kathryn Riedener, Collections and Resources Coordinator at PLS, will follow with a review of the different ways the System can support weeding and collection maintenance at your library to get your stacks spruced up and your materials circulating!
This meeting will be hybrid, both in-person at OWWL HQ and via Zoom. A link will be sent the morning of the meeting.
