Each day, discussion begins and ends at:
Pacific: 7 a.m. -- 3 p.m.

Space in libraries is an increasingly valuable commodity. To respond to
this problem librarians are looking for cost-effective solutions to
store and provide access to large, legacy print collections. Shared
print repositories have emerged as one possible solution, even as other
print preservation solutions continue to emerge within the library
community.
During this e-forum, we hope to stimulate discussion on the many of the
different issues surrounding print archiving with an emphasis on shared
print repositories.
We hope to address as many of these topics as we can during the e-forum:
* What is a shared print repository?
* What should you look for in a shared print archiving agreement?
* How are libraries selecting material for shared print collections?
* What workflows and logistics are useful for librarians involved in
shared print projects?
* What metadata is involved in shared print programs?
* What access restrictions are available for shared print programs?
* How is resource sharing addressed in shared print programs?
* What does participation in a national shared print network look like?
* What are some of the other models for print preservation?
Please join us for what we hope will be a lively discussion on this
emerging trend.

*What is an **e-forum**?*
An ALCTS e-forum provides an opportunity for librarians to discuss
matters of interest, led by a moderator, through the e-forum discussion
list. The e-forum discussion list works like an email listserv: register
your email address with the list, and then you will receive messages and
communicate with other participants through an email discussion. Most
e-forums last two days. Registration is necessary to participate, but
it's free. See a list of upcoming e-forums at:
http://www.ala.org/alcts/confevents/upcoming/e-forum.
*To register:*
Instructions for registration are available at:
http://www.ala.org/alcts/confevents/upcoming/e-forum/sympa. Once you
have registered for one e-forum, you do not need to register again,
unless you choose to leave the email list. Participation is free and
open to anyone. If you have any problems, please contact
