The JSTOR Project Print Retention and Withdrawal

1.Adding New Acquisitions to the Collections 2.Consolidating Collections 3.Storage Space Issues OSU Libraries: Current Challenges

The Libraries add 127,000+ volumes to the collection annually* *2009 ARL statistics These do not include: Volumes added to the Health Sciences, Law and regional library collections Microforms Electronic resources Adding New Acquisitions to the Collection

Music & Dance Library (MUS) materials being moved to the Science & Engineering Library (SEL) by Summer 2011 because of upcoming Sullivant Hall renovation Consolidating Collections

Collections and services offered by MUS and SEL must be consolidated into existing SEL space Consolidating Collections

Space needed for new additions to the collections Book Depository (STX) storage facility is at capacity No additional storage likely to become available in the foreseeable future Storage Space Issues

Withdraw items from MUS, SEL and STX, applying the Libraries “Print Retention and Withdrawal” policy Transfer items from MUS and SEL to STX, as volumes currently at STX are withdrawn Physical Solutions

Founded in 1995, JSTOR is a not- for-profit service that helps scholars, researchers, and students discover, use, and build upon a wide range of content in a digital archive of over 1,000 academic journals and other scholarly content. JSTOR’s development was supported by the Mellon Foundation. The JSTOR Project

Purpose: A service for libraries to outsource storage of print journals Goal: Archives multiple paper copies Harvard and California Digital Library have print copies archived for preservation purposes CRL (Center for Research Libraries) in Chicago) is also a print back-up site : OSU journal discards are sent to fill in CRL gaps ) About JSTOR

OSU Libraries donated $30,000 in 1997 to help develop JSTOR. OSU Libraries purchased nine JSTOR collections at a cost of $116,575. OSU pays JSTOR $58,000 annually for online access and outsourced archiving services. JSTOR and the OSU Libraries

OSUL contributes withdrawn volumes, if needed by CRL, for redundant print archiving or future borrowing if a print copy is again required OhioLINK libraries are discussing retaining a minimum of two print copies of JSTOR titles for OhioLINK loans JSTOR and the OSU Libraries

American Journal of Mathematics American Mathematical Monthly Annales d'Économie et de Statistique Annales de l'inséé Cahiers du Séminaire d'Économétrie The Annals of Mathematics The Analyst The Bulletin of Symbolic Logic The College Mathematics Journal The Two-Year College Mathematics Journal Econometrica Educational Studies in Mathematics JSTOR Math Titles We have online access via JSTOR, but we may never have subscribed to all 65 math journals in print:

Subject librarians will be notified by when wiki is live and JSTOR titles are posted Procedure: All JSTOR titles will be withdrawn to provide needed space – unless they fit criteria to be retained 1 st priority will be titles in STX, SEL, MUS Next Steps

All staff/students managing withdrawals and transfers will be re-trained on JSTOR criteria using updated training materials Withdrawn volumes on OSU regional campus libraries’ wiki “pick list” and CRL wish list will be shipped to them Next Steps

High graphic content (i.e. photos, art work) Continuing high circulation of print volumes Print Volumes will be retained for certain categories
