Item Facilitating Information Sharing through Library Collection Maintenance and Preservation(Libraries Unlimited, 2016) Baich, Tina; Michaels, SherriItem Shared Print in Indiana(2015-06-12) Baich, Tina; Leonard, KirstenIn 2013, 36 Indiana academic libraries came together to take part in the ALI/PALNI Shared Print Project. By sharing their resources, the libraries were able to engage Sustainable Collection Services to analyze the circulating print monographs of each library individually and as a whole. The Project has both short-term and long-term goals. In the short-term, libraries are able to make data-driven decisions about weeding their collections and reclaim space for student use. As we look to the future, the Project can also be the foundation for a shared collection mindset and allow greater cooperative collection development. This year’s keynote address will share background on the ALI/PALNI Shared Print Project, the results to date and plans for the future.
