Weeding for the Utterly Fearless Online

Weeding is essential to the health of every library collection. Not only does it remove materials that are outdated or in poor condition, but it also makes browsing easier, boosts your circulation statistics, and makes room for new items. But when staff is nervous about "getting rid" of items, weeding can easily become a project pushed off to another, distant day. In small, rural libraries, you don't have the shelf space to wait for that day. Be utterly fearless and join NCLS Consultant Angela Newman for a lively discussion of best practices for the deselection and disposal of popular materials in small public libraries!
