  1. Connect NY Unique Item Project Noreen RealeFalcone Library Le Moyne College

  2. Goal of Project • To free up space in our stacks, Le Moyne College Library wanted to identify withdrawal candidates from the circulating collection acquired earlier than a given date that had no record of circulation since 1994, when we acquired Innopac (and subsequently Millenium).

  3. Requirements of Project • To work from withdrawal candidate lists that were produced from Le Moyne’s Millenium catalog. • Note: the lists were to be used to identify withdrawal candidates only. They were not intended to be “pull” lists. • To maximize the effectiveness of Connect NY’s Inn-Reach book lending network, we wanted to make sure that we were not withdrawing the last copy in the system. • After some discussion among the librarians, it was thought that preserving two copies in the system, when they existed, would make for a more robust sharing network.

  4. Methodology of Project • Produce lists of items from Le Moyne’s circulating collection acquired before a given date that had zero circulation recorded in Millenium. • Obtain lists of items from the Connect NY union catalog that were either: • Uniquely held by Le Moyne (we owned the only copy) • Held by Le Moyne and exactly one other library • Produce from these, lists of items that had not circulated AND which were held by two other Connect NY libraries OR (fallback) held by at least one other Connect NY library.
