RLG Programs Shared Print Collections Coordinating Committee

As a result of discussions at the RLG Annual Meeting in 2008, it was agreed that a small leadership committee was needed to demonstrate the value and feasibility of advancing the Shared Print Collections agenda by implementing changes in local practice. Beyond modeling service and policy requirements, this group is expected to advocate for system-wide change in the way research collections are acquired, managed and preserved.

The Coordinating Committee is charged with developing and implementing a cooperative agreement that can serve as a model to other research institutions that are seeking more cost-efficient approach to acquiring and managing print collections. The current committee roster represents institutions and individuals who participated in the "Future of Collections" discussion at the 2008 RLG Annual Meeting and who expressed a commitment to serve as advocates and agents of change.

The Coordinating Committee began its work in autumn 2008; current members will serve through June 2009.
