The DSS department is going to start posting updates on the MI-SPI weeding project on this blog since weeding and shifting are going to be closely related activities for the duration of the MI-SPI project. Since we haven't gotten retention notes into the bibliographic records of all LC classification areas yet, we haven't been weeding in a strict backwards LCC order. Here's a summary of what has been processed for withdrawal thus far:
G, M, R, S, U, V, and Z have been pulled, records marked for withdrawal, and volumes stamp & slashed.
H, HM-HT have been pulled, and we are currently pulling HJ's from the HA-HJ withdrawal list.
HV, HX, J, K, and T weeding lists have been printed, and these will be the next areas where books with be withdrawn.
L, N, P, and Q are pending.
As of today (June 28), Yuri reports that 6278 bibliographic records (i.e. titles) and 6840 item records (i.e. volumes) have been processed for withdrawal. As of June 17, we had shipped 78 boxes of books to Better World Books, and there a substantial number of boxes already packed for the next shipment.
If you have any questions, please let Leah know.
