Non-profit global library cooperative OCLC has announced that King's College London has selected OCLC Sustainable Collection Services (SCS) to help staff make more data-driven decisions about their print monographs.
King's College London comprises six libraries and an off-site storage facility housing 1 million print volumes, 44,000 e-journals and 350,000 e-books. As the demand for library space increases, the staffs have to consider ways in which they can free up space, while also working to adhere to their commitment of growing their physical collections.
GreenGlass is a web-based analysis application that will support King's College London in assessing its print collections and informing decisions around storage, retention and sharing.
The libraries work collaboratively and share their collections to give students the best possible study experience and facilities. They are able to consider collections on both a local and national scale using WorldCat holdings data and, consequently, they can make the best use of their space.
