SUMMARY
Weeding and maintenance of library holdings
Composed as guidelines, where the situation of public and secondary
school libraries is mainly considered. The authors discuss the importance
of continuous collection review. The term weeding is defined and two
stages of weeding are described. The problems with weeding are listed and
why librarians resist weeding, e.g. because size is considered to be
synonymous with quality, lack of staff, expenses and because weeding is
practically the selection process in reverse. Weeding procedures are ex-
plained and the criteria used are noted and discussed. Weeding in public
and school libraries is dealt with and the special problems rising in each
type are discussed. Finally the authors point out that the most feasible
solution of the storage problems of libraries is to operate a common
deposit library which serves the libraries on interlibrary loans basis.
