Making Room For Change: Rightsizing Psu’S Axe Library Serials Collection Powerpoint, Barbara M. Pope
Faculty Submissions
Print journal collection development has long been one of the traditional roles of academic librarians. However, in the last 20 years or so, print journal ownership has declined and online journal access has taken its place; both due to growing concerns with flat or declining budgets as well as a lack of space and the need to repurpose this limited space.

In an effort to create a meaningful discovery experience …

Illiad, Rapid, And An Unmediated Solution To The Interlibrary Loan Textbook Dilemma, Erika Mcneil
Published Works
As the cost of textbooks rises and discoverability of resources improves, students are turning more and more to interlibrary loan to meet their textbook needs. This paper describes how systems can be utilized to streamline processes and allow for the cancelling of textbook requests consistently and appropriately by taking full advantage of the capabilities of ILLiad and Rapid, saving both staff time and money. This paper looks at how a large research university made the decision to implement a textbook policy, and how it navigated the troubled waters to come to a simple, unmediated solution.

Western Libraries Publications
Five academic libraries in Ontario (Canada) are collaborating in a shared last print copy repository project. The project, called Keep@Downsview, aims to consolidate and rationalize low-use print materials held by the partner libraries and ensure long-term preservation of these important scholarly materials in Ontario, while still providing access via document delivery and ILL. In doing so, each of the partner institutions demonstrates its commitment to the stewardship of print collections for future generations while repurposing valuable space on campus. This paper describes the background, rationale, challenges, and lessons learned for this unique Canadian project that leveraged funding from the province …
