Dear colleagues
I have been searching HE Institutions' Collection Management/Development Policies on the web for 'edition succession' statements - but in vain.
By that I mean criteria by which decisions are made whether or not to retain previous edition/s on the shelves when a new edition of a work is published.
If anyone can supply me with such a statement, either formally 'enshrined' or informally adopted I'd be grateful.
Please reply off-list. I'll be happy to share the answers if there is interest.
Thank you.
Peter
