Colorado State University Libraries has adopted a new method
for treating damaged books from the circulating collections.
Prompted by organizational change and the desire for preservation
procedures to reflect collection development priorities,
the method has evolved over several years into a workflow
that incorporates repair, withdrawal, and print or electronic
replacement. This process enables the library to make strategic
decisions about the conservation of its print collections,
enhance its electronic collections, and to more efficiently use
limited resources.
