of Good and Evil
Weeding your library's collection can be a daunting task, but it is a critical component to providing excellent library service to your community. This
workshop will give you the tools and enthusiasm that you will need to assess your collection and make decisions on what material needs to be weeded out of it. Our approach to weeding is that it isn't the irresponsible disposal of the library's property, but
rather a part of good public service to borrowers in terms of maintaining the best possible collection for the community.
The workshop will cover:
-
The purpose of weeding
-
Criteria for weeding decisions
-
The mechanics of weeding
-
Developing a weeding policy
-
Resources for disposal of weeded material
Presenter:
Brad Bullis, Digital Content and Innovation Coordinator
Kym Powe, Children and YA Consultant
