Date: Wednesday, February 5, 2020

All webinars are one hour in length and begin at 11 am Pacific, noon
Mountain, 1 pm Central, and 2 pm Eastern time.



Description: This webinar will outline the process a medium-sized special
library took when the library staff was asked to drastically reduce the
print collection to more effectively utilize space. A discussion of the
steps that were taken and the lessons learned will be included to better
prepare other libraries facing a similar challenge.

Learning outcomes:

At the end of this webinar the attendees will be able to:

   -

   discern between the do’s and don’ts when it comes to reducing a
   library’s print collection and
   -

   effectively design and execute their own weeding projects.



Who should attend?

Collection development librarians who are responsible for managing a print
collection, specifically those librarians who have been asked to
drastically reduce a print collection to better utilize space.

Presenter:

Jennifer Walker is the Collection Development Librarian at the National
Renewable Energy Laboratory in Golden, Colorado. Jennifer has been at the
lab for seven years, five of which have been spent in the collection
development role and the previous two years as a reference and interlibrary
loan librarian. Prior to NREL, Jennifer worked in both academic and special
