Collaborative collections
We work in extremely similar collection environments, providing access to a large body of common material. We select, preserve and manage multiple physical and digital collections with a level of duplication. Reducing multiple copies and further developing consortial relationships with other libraries or with publishers and suppliers will achieve economies of scale.
This project will identify options to reduce the duplication of resources within the context of our collection and access responsibilities, and to build a collaborative approach to collecting published materials. We will scope and analyse potential business models that will deliver efficiencies.
