January is always a time of planning for the new year - What craft will we doing for the spring holidays? What is this year’s summer reading theme? What does our budget look like for the rest of this fiscal year?
In your planning for this year - consider an collection comparison project (aka an inventory) with PrairieCat this year.
- Have you done a weeding project at your agency and updated your shelf-list and maybe didn't update Sierra?
- Are you tired of receiving hold requests in Sierra (or in OCLC) for titles that you no longer own?
Working on a collection comparison will resolve those "ghost" items in PrairieCat (and in OCLC too)!
Last year the following agencies requested item lists to start their collection comparisons. Kudos to three of the members that even completed their inventory review last year!
