Ref collection scanning



As part of the library's mass digitization projects scanning of the McHenry Reference collection will be starting this week. Between now and the beginning of fall quarter shipments will begin to be sent out for scanning. Every effort is being made to ensure as little material as possible is out while classes are in session. Signs indicating where material has been pulled will be posted in the Ref Stacks and Cruzcat records will be updated accordingly. Coordination of the logistics of the pull, scan and record maintenance is being done by Maric Kramer. Amy and I will be working with Maric to select optimal times for pulling, keeping reference and collection planning folks informed and addressing any location or catalog record problems that may come up.

A page has been set up on the wiki <http://ucsclibrary.pbworks.com/Mass+Digitization+Project+-+McHenry+Reference+Collection > with more information. Updates will be posted there. Please let me or Amy know if you have any questions or concerns.

Thanks, Frank
