What is Shared Print?• Commitment to retain so that others can partner libraries

can rely on their availability• Common features of a Shared Print Project

– Retention commitment – Selection criteria – Collection location – Ownership – Validation– Access/delivery

• But where do smaller libraries fit?• PAN forum http://

Projects in the Region• CIC • Ohio Regional Depositories• MI-SPI• PALNI/ALI (2013-2015)

– 36 Indiana academic libraries– Monographs– Used SCS to do our analysis

• Others?


Indiana Academic Library Need• Free up space without losing access• A “more useful” collection based on immediate

needs rather than long term possibilities• Justify space for collections • Data to justify weeded items • Increase efficiency of weeding process

(Monographs free less space per title than journals)

• Coordinate acquisitions so money is spent effectively


PALNI/ALI Project Background• Conceived and Championed

– Academic Libraries of Indiana presidents Dan Bowell (Taylor University) and David Lewis (IUPUI)

• Major Impetus – PALNI’s goal for shared collection management and

shared processing (23 libraries “all-in”)

• Means to do the project – Sustainable Collection Services (SCS) and

GreenGlass http://sustainablecollections.com– Funding from Lilly Endowment Inc– Project Coordinator Tina Baich (IUPUI)

PALNI/ALI Project Goals1. Provide participating libraries an opportunity to reduce

their print collections with minimal impact on library users;

2. Allow participating libraries to reclaim space for other purposes more directly beneficial to library users;

3. Identify unique print items within the collections of participating libraries for preservation and potential digitization;

4. Inform and influence ongoing collection development at the individual libraries; and

5. Develop a statewide strategy for print book collections, which may involve cooperative purchasing.


Project Timeline• October 2013: Introductory meeting held• November 2013: SCS and Project Coordinator contracts

finalized; Policy Group formed• December 2013: Data questionnaires submitted to SCS• January 2014: Data sets submitted to SCS• February 2014: Policy Group meeting• March 2014: Policy Group meeting• April-May 2014: SCS sent individual library data summaries• May 2014: SCS provided group data summary for use by the

Policy Group; Policy Group meeting• June-July 2014: SCS loaded individual library data into its online

collection analysis tool; Participant meetings held to provide training for the online tool


Scope• In scope:

– Circulating print monographs

• Out of scope:

– Serials– Special Collections– eBooks– Micro Formats– A-V Materials– Lost/Withdrawn/Missing items– Reference Materials – except if they circulate– Government Documents – except if they are treated as

circulating books


Funding

• Lilly Endowment Inc. Grant• Academic Libraries of Indiana • Contribution from participants based on

number of records contributed– PALNI centrally funded PALNI library

contributions


Policy Group

• Twelve representatives• Handled group-wide decisions

– Comparison group composition– Review of retention commitments of the “Big

3” (IUB, ND, Purdue)– Whether to have a formal MOU– Definition of “Scarcely Held”


Project PolicyOr How Our Project is Different

• No formal MOU– “Formal Informal Agreement”

• “Scarcely-held” title-holdings would be removed from each library’s dataset prior to loading into GreenGlass.

• After that, each library would be free to act without restriction on any of the titles in GreenGlass.


Project PolicyScarcely Held Definition

• Held by fewer than four libraries in Indiana;

• Held by fewer than twenty libraries in the US; or

• Not held by at least one of Indiana University Bloomington, Purdue University, or University of Notre Dame.


But will we get more formal?

• Questions have arisen about scarcely held titles

• Desire to indicate when books will be retained

• Agreements are already in place to lend between Indiana academics, but how do we ensure regional collaboration?

Collaboration in Acquisitions

Reviewing acquisitions data from 2010• Can we tell how many copies are sufficient

to meet need?• Are there characteristics available at the

point of purchase that determine usage? (e.g. Choice Review, Publisher, Subject area)

• Are there characteristics that determine widely held by low use?


VIVA Project

Top publishers

Highly circulated

titles

Widely held titles


Candidates for Digitization• 330,875 pre-1923 items in total, representing

153,348 unique OCLC numbers• 126,564 items, representing 93,270 unique

OCLC numbers NOT in Hathi Public Domain• Less than 50% of our scarcely held is in

Hathi Public Domain• This is a LARGE list – considering focusing

on Indiana material for first pass


Regional Possibilities?• How does our work intersect with CIC,

MI-SPI, Ohio, Indiana Public Libraries in Evergreen?

• What infrastructure is needed to collaborate further (delivery, discovery, etc.?)

• What analysis should be done to identify needs and benefits for regional collaboration?


SARA BUSHONG, DEAN OF UNIVERSITY LIBRARIES AT BOWLING GREEN STATE UNIVERSITY

We can do what we are doing thanks to work that the CIC and others are doing …
