[LM_NET] HIT: Multiple copies (Part 3 of 3)

[David Lininger <tigerlibrarian@GMAIL.COM>]

Thanks to all who shared their thoughts. After reflecting on your 
comments all weekend, I've decided to do the following:

Those sets of multiple copies will be reduced to one copy on the shelf. 
That copy will be the one that is in the worst shape that is still good 
enough to be on the shelf. The rest of the copies will be put in boxes 
in the back room. If demand picks up next year, I'll bring another copy 
back. If a copy runs away I'll have a backup.

At the end of the next school year I'll revisit those series. If the 
demand hasn't returned I'll weed the worst copies.

One person asked for any weeded HP books. Since I'm not going to 
actually weed any of mine now, I can't help. I like the idea, though. If 
the moderators wouldn't mind, perhaps we can ask for what we need that 
others might be weeding. I'd suggest that anyone who is willing to help 
out another library respond off-list, though.
