Collection Development Action Project

This was my favorite project to date. It was the first time that I actually felt like a librarian. I got to analyze the material and make a decision like I was leading my own library. It was great to talk to the librarian about our collection because being a recent graduate herself, we agree that our collection is in desperate need of weeding. She wanted a copy of my suggestions to use when it comes time to pull unneeded material. Apparently our staff is weary of getting rid of any material (big surprise, huh!). To make it easier on herself and to avoid controversy, she is planning on doing a lot of the heavy weeding over the summer. Eager to learn and lend a hand, I offered my services to her! I hope that between the two of us, we can make some much needed decisions to equal some big changes!
