HI Folks, I am pretty new to the role of Maps Librarian for our fairly small collection, but first task is a review of our existing collection policy and to undertake a good weed of the existing collection. I have not found many weeding protocols others have used on the net, to serve as an example, with the exception of experiences shared by *Emily-Jane Dawson *from* Multnomah County Library (http://www.waml.org/ib/waml-information-bulletin/46-2/weeding-the-map-collection-observations-and-advice/ <http://www.waml.org/ib/waml-information-bulletin/46-2/weeding-the-map-collection-observations-and-advice/>) ( Thanks for sharing Emily!) (http://www.waml.org/ib/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/figure2.pdf <http://www.waml.org/ib/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/figure2.pdf>) * Would anyone else who has written up an outline for consideration/weeding protocol, for weeding a physical Maps Collection, be kind enough to share? I would be happy to compile any received into a list for the group. Thanks for any advice you might offer. Cheers. Jenny. ************************************************************** Jennifer Kain - Subject Librarian Hargrave-Andrew Library - Monash University 13 College Walk (Bld 30), Clayton Campus Ph 9905 2639 Email: [log in to unmask] Please note: my *usual *working days are Tue, Wed, Thurs. **************************************************************
