What are the reasons that weeding doesnrsquot get done

ldquoTherersquos no such thing as a bad book

(The wrong) something is not better than nothing

Librarians have a responsibility for discarding unsound books of yesteryear In the eyes of the public the fact that they are on the shelves confers upon them an endorsementldquo

--Clarke G E Propaganda Library World 4262-63 October 1939

ldquoSomeone might need themrdquo

8020 Rule (Pareto Principle)

20 of your books are responsible for 80 of your circulation

When Loriene Roy weeded 10 of three Illinois public libraries in 1985 only one percent of the weeded books were requested over the following eight months

start with 12 books--not too many

All discarded lovers should be given a second chance but with somebody else

ldquoWhat will people sayrdquo

Like most kinds of equipment most books eventually lose their effectiveness

Be ruthless in this section

Currency is key

Paperbacks

gt5 years remove if not circulating well

Advice for Specific Sections CampYA Non-Fiction

Anything is not better than nothing

Better to lack books that have bad information

Use CREW Guidelines by Dewey Class as in adult sections

Other CampYA Issuesbull Abridged classics (often poor quality)

bull Series books (often poor quality replace if titles donrsquot stand alone and collect for various reading levels)

bull Older titles ndash beware of dated look torn pages shabby bindings

bull Worn classics should be replaced (Donrsquot be sentimental)

bull Geography titles older than 5 years ndash toss

bull Science medicine inventions ndash rapid changes so update every 5 years

bull Textbooks ndash gauge by demand in community and homeschool population

Advice for Specific Sections Reference

Older editions may be weeded when superseded

Materials should be periodically evaluated (not as often as circulating collection and not as continuous)

Different replacement schedules (new editions may not be as frequent)

Keep websites and databases in mind

Consider integrating reference materials into the circulating collection especially if usage is poor

Advice for Specific Sections Periodicals

Current use ndash use declines drastically 5 years after publication date

Interest in circulating older issues ndash do you allow back issues to circulate

Full-text availability
