How about some discussion on the third point in Doug Johnson's 'Weed'
article:
"Sends the message that the library may not be adequately funded."
Article is in Library Media
Connection, Aug 2003. The Head for the Edge column. It is available through
Ebsco's Prof Dev collection.
I would hope it is being discussed in LMS programs. I know there is
anecdotal evidence about revitalizing collections. Copyright date averages
plays a part in the first Information Power as well as various state impact
studies.

Hi folks,
For what it's worth, a column of mine on weeding was published in the 2003
Sept/Oct Library Media Connection magazine. If you are interested in a copy
of the column, let me know. It does contain some weeding rationales and
tips.
All the best from a snowy Minnesota,
Doug
