Dear all,
Our library has a main collection of music, books, CDs etc and a separate
collection of theatre ephemera, which is housed in another room away from
the main library. We want to be able to search these 2 collections
separately, but because of the way our system has been set up, our
providers (Sirsi) have informed us that the only way we can do this is to
go down the multi-site route. This is going to have cost implications, and
my manager would like to know whether there are any other institutions who
have created a separate "library" for a collection which is housed in the
same building as (or at least in relatively close proximity to) their main
collection.
I don't really need details, just some idea of how common this is. I'd be
most grateful if anyone in this category could let me know.
Thanks,
Claire
