Subject areas in which there are no current teaching or research interests, and in disciplines where primary use is centered on recently published material. The climate controlled environment of the Storage Library makes it a good place to shelve items whose condition makes shelving in open stacks inappropriate. Examples include little used microform titles, fragile or brittle books, unusually large or small items, and materials which are candidates for microfilming. Storage may be an appropriate choice for housing material that is valuable or at- risk for theft or mutilation. B. Material Type and Format Monographs Individual monographs.
Selection is based upon the criteria established above.
Titles analyzed and classed separately may be viewed as individual monographs. Where series titles are classed together, consideration should be given to the effect that selective transfers will have on users. Sets should remain intact. The full set should remain in the stacks or be sent to storage. Monographs containing microfiche, computer disks, or other enclosures are not treated differently.
