Subject: RE: Journal collections
Dear Sarah
This is an interesting subject.
I feel that expanding an existing scheme’s website would be the best.
As they have the capacity to place requests and obtain usage form the system.
We have a regional one http://www.wishill.nhs.uk/ which serves this purpose.
If every library paid a fee the costs of up keep would be very small for each library.
You could have it split into the 3 NHS areas and one academic area to make it easier for copyright licence issues.
We currently source approx half of our ILLs from our regional scheme which saves direct costs from commercial suppliers.
How much more we would save with a national scheme.
We use the lists healthill and lis-ill for items unavailable elsewhere.
Our use of these lists is more common now with trying to source more e-pubs and no that BL are far more frequently unable to supply items due to copyright restrictions.
Perhaps this is an issue to raise with FIL www.forumforinterlending.org.uk and perhaps have it as one of the sessions at the FIL conference this year as this would definitely come under the ‘Back to basics’ theme.
Don’t know if any FIL organisers are reading this thread – perhaps they could comment?
Regards
Sandra

Subject: Journal collections
Hello,
Just wondering how everyone else manages their journal collections. I'm having a bit of spring clean and i'm not sure how ruthless to be with my journals. I'm thinking along the lines of how long do people keep certain journals after they have finished taking new copies, and also do you have a cut of date say of 10 years for keeping old stock of current journals?
Thanks,
Sarah
