(This is a work in progress, derived initially from a meeting of librarians on the 25th of May 2019, and updated picked up again by the Library & Publications Working Group in February 2023)
The process described below is envisaged to be an ongoing project for the Library - allowing us to constantly evaluate the state of the collection, and make room for new acquisitions.
=== 2. Decision Meeting ===
We will have an open meeting - NEXT WEEDING MEETING 22 FEB 2023 TBC (all welcome!) - where collectively we work through each of the books designated for weeding in the first pass. For a book to be discarded it will require a majority consensus from all those present. If consensus cannot be met the book will remain in the collection.
A photograph of the book's cover, the decision, and reasoning will be archived on the Slack #library channel, Instagram and/or flickr.
If "yes", then the book is a keeper.
If "no", continue to consider the following factors:
Given the answers to 2-6, should inform the final decision, and the method of disposal. For example if the book is not available in other libraries we should find it a new home.
