Abstract

Find out how one University Library undertook a reference-weeding project to pare three reference collections down from 12,000 titles. The poster will discuss the motivations for reviewing the reference collection, the data gathered to support decision making, the challenges encountered in the project, and estimates for the costs associated with such a weeding project.
