> Dear colleagues,
>
> As part of our Proquest Direct license, we are still receiving 3 products
> on CD-ROM: BPO, GPO and SSI. Our Collection Development Committee is
> discussing whether it is worth keeping and maintaining the CD-ROM
> collections which take up lots of space and are quite inconvenient to
> maintain, esp. with limited staff resources and many clients preferring to
> just access Proquest Direct online and take what they can get.
>
> Has any other library gone through this decision-making process and if so,
> with what outcome? What were the essential criteria in coming to that
> final decision?
>
> Thank you so much in advance - your advice would help us tremendously!
