Hi Missy,
I have to submit a valuation every year. We use a per volume ten-year average cost for monographs and serials, multiplied by the number of volumes added (and withdrawn) each year. I'd be happy to send you our average price data, just let me know.
Thanks,

Hello,
I have been asked to value our collection, excluding special collections, for insurance purposes. I've found one article, "Insuring the Academic Library Collection," by Susan A. Cady in Journal of Academic Librarianship, May 1999. Can anyone give me additional advice if you've done a valuation for your collection? My deadline is Friday.
Thanks,
Missy Laytham
