You are invited to a program sponsored by the ALCTS CMS Education Committee:  What Drives Collection Assessment? The "Why" That Brings You to "How"

Are we completely controlled by our buildings and the need to weed? What other factors for planning lead us to assess our collections? Is it possible to individualize assessment tools for genuinely meaningful results? Learn how three very different libraries, with different objectives, approached evaluation and assessment.

Speakers:

Bleue Benton, Collections, Oak Park Public Library

Michael Leach, Head, Collection Development, Cabot Science Library, Harvard University

Stephanie Schmitt, Asst. Tech Services and Systems Librarian, UC Hastings Law Library, University of California

The program will be held on Monday, June 29, 2015, from 8:30-10:00 a.m., MCC 2002 (W)

We look forward to seeing you at what is sure to be a fascinating program.
