issues of repair, replacement, and reformatting in accordance with recognized standards and priorities of consortial
programs.
Collection Retention and Disposition:
Materials are periodically withdrawn from campus libraries in order to maintain the integrity of collections and
effective use of resources (e.g., superseded, deteriorating, or duplicated items or resources available from another
source).
Collection Development Librarians:
The UW-Madison libraries divide responsibilities for building and managing collections among a number of
librarians, each of whom is responsible for one or more subject areas. These librarians, or selectors, determine which
books, periodicals, electronic information, and other resources should be acquired or licensed by the libraries.
Selectors' decisions are made on the basis of their knowledge of current curriculum needs, faculty research interests,
research and publication trends in the relevant subject areas, and the strengths and weaknesses of the collections and
other information resources already provided by the libraries. Communication between the selectors and the faculty is
essential in developing library resources which both meet current needs and anticipate near- and long-term
modifications in teaching and research programs.

Report to the University Board of Trustees
Selections [PDF] from a report for the Board of Trustees meeting on May 11,
2005.
Library Report on Shelving Facility
Final report* [PDF]. In November 2004 a group of Library staff outlined provisional
candidates for storage in a new addition, projected growth of the Library
collections, and additional requirements for a high-density automated shelving
system.
Faculty Task Force on Space for the Collections
In 2003 the Provost commissioned an ad-hoc committee of faculty members to
examine and review options for increasing shelving space. Chaired by Richard
Helmholz (Law), the members included Lauren Mets (Biological Sciences), Sam
Peltzman (GSB), Steven Pincus (Social Sciences), Stephen M. Stigler (Physical
Sciences), and Elissa B. Weaver (Humanities). The Committee worked closely
with their colleagues, Library staff, and SBRA.
The final report included 2 appendices: one comparing costs between an on-site
and off-site facility, and an appendix from the Library Committee on Collection
Development.

Feasibility Study
In 2003-04 Shepley Bulfinch Richardson &Abbott* (SBRA) did a feasibility study
examining the various options for increasing Library shelving capacity. SBRA met
with various Library and University staff over the course of fall 2003 and winter
2004.
SBRA Shelving Facility Study*, April 2004: SBRA initially compared an on-site
addition to Regenstein and an off-site high-density facility. [PDF]

After SBRA issued their report, the Library and University asked them to explore
