We have had many occasions on which to try to express the appreciation of the College for Mr. Dodge's magnificent service. All those efforts are inadequate to express the indebtedness we feel for the clarity of his vision, the soundness of his judgment, the keenness of his insight, and the strength of his kindness and generosity.

  • Cooperative Collection Development: Wellesley College and Williams College
    Cooperative Collection Development: Wellesley College and Williams College As members of the Boston Library Consortium [BLC], an association of 20 academic and research libraries located in Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Hampshire, and Rhode Island, Wellesley College and Williams College have actively participated in a number of cooperative collection development initiatives, including: . Cooperative Collection Development in Art and Architecture, a working group convened to explore possible cooperative collections initiatives. RESULT: the creation of a wiki for art librarians to provide information about their library’s collection strengths and to share current collecting priorities. Materials-vendor-supported efforts o Music Cooperative Collection Development Project with a goal to “diversify the number of titles acquired in the BLC and to reduce unnecessary duplication where that made sense based on an individual institution’s programmatic and curriculum needs.” RESULT: A shared approval plan profile for M-MT classification was created by participating libraries and is maintained by YBP. Data provides a mixed picture of success in achieving goal: number of unique titles purchased by participating libraries has decreased by 30% compared to FY07; however, over 67% of the titles profiled are purchased by 4 or fewer libraries. o Peer Group title selection decision information. BLC libraries that are YBP customers have access to title-level selection decision-making information for both firm orders and approval plan titles in the GOBI3 database service. Access to peer group data permits individual libraries and individual collection development librarians to place local added copy decisions within the context of local consortium resource-sharing. Shared Retention/Discard Task Force charged “to create a memorandum of understanding for BLC libraries for collaborative management of the print format of archival science indexes and abstracts and chemistry journals for the purpose of maximizing information releases while releasing shelf space for all participants.
