This might sound like a ridiculous question,but I will ask it. Given the
fact that in pre-automated era we relied on the circulation card to weed
fiction in addition to other criteria, what are some procedures and ideas to
weed FIC tion with an automated library? I have a four year old opening
day collection with Athena 9.3 as the automation program. I do not know all
of the ins/outs..bells/whistles of Athena, so there may be a feature that
will do this for me. If there is I will welcome the details , steps, and
where the feature is located in the program
Most of my fiction books are A.R. but I am getting very tight on shelf space
...the FIC fiction that is....Easy is getting there also. Weeding easy for
me is much easier. The FIC is another ballgame.
How are others weeding fiction in the automation age??! Is the task
subjective?
Thank you for your replies.
