Date: March 23, 2011
All webinars are one hour in length and begin at 2pm Eastern, 1pm
Central, noon Mountain, and 11am Pacific Time.
Description: Weeding (or de-selection) is an integral part of library
collection management. Eliminating outdated, worn, or trivial items from
your shelves can enhance the appeal of your collection and increase
circulation. Topics covered in this webinar include:
- Understanding and using the CREW (Continuous Review Evaluation
Weeding) criteria from the Texas State Library and Archives Commission
- Creating a manageable weeding plan
- Collection development policies for withdrawal and disposal of materials
Presenter: Keri Cascio is a Branch Manager for the St. Charles (MO)
City-County Library District. She has taught workshops on cataloging,
interlibrary loan, and technology trends for Missouri libraries, and is
a member of the ALCTS Continuing Education Committee. Keri lives by the
popular motto “If it’s too dirty to read in bed, it’s too dirty to be on
your shelf.”
