Collections Management: Share the experience @ York

Collections Management: Share the experience @ York

An event organised and hosted by the University of York Library

in association with Jisc, RLUK and SCONUL

Involved in Collections Management?

This is an opportunity for practitioners to meet, share experience and good practice.

So if you are motivated by managing library stores, animated by stock analysis, or puzzled with what to include in your CM policies, we would love to see you!

Explore what does participating in a collections management community mean, and hear the experiences of those already working collaboratively within consortia.

! Registration closes on Friday 19 June. Places at this event are limited and issued on a first come, first served basis !
