aserl-collection-strategy Mailing List: ASERL Collection Strategies: Collection Policies interest poll

[Rebecca Crist, ASERL (rebecca]

Hello all,
The Collection Strategies working group is considering topics of interest to 
ASERL’s collections community. One topic that has come up repeatedly is 
documenting collection policies—should we have them written out? Should we 
update ones we haven’t looked at in a while? What if we actually have several 
collections policies across the institution? How can we incorporate 
values-based principles into collections policies?

We are considering a webinar in January to focus on some of these issues, and 
we’d appreciate your input on whether or not that would be of interest. And if 
it is, we’d love to hear from you if you’ve been there and cracked the secrets 
of collections policies!

We ask you to please fill out a brief 
form<https://forms.gle/raH82wT65UGkCm8VA>, linked below. It should take 3 
minutes or less, and multiple responses from a single library are A-OK—you are 
welcome to respond as yourself, not as the representative voice of your 
library. Please respond by November 16. If you have any questions, feel free to 
respond to the list or contact me directly.

Best wishes,
Rebecca
