Subject: [ARLIS-L] Identifying Expensive, Out-of-print Books

 

Dear ARLIS/NA Colleagues:

I am doing some research for our head of collections here at University of
Washington Bothell on how to go about identifying books within our
collection that are now out-of-print and, for that reason, have increased in
value. I can imagine that this is quite an issue with art monographs in
particular, so I'm wondering if you or your institution might have a process
in place to identify these books.

We had an incident here recently where a student returned a book that was
significantly damaged and not salvageable, and when we looked at the current
price it was something like $600, as it was no longer in print (but our
standard fee for damaged books is significantly less). We'd like to avoid
this in the future and instead send books such as these to our Special
Collections unit in Seattle, but we're not sure how best to go about
identifying these books in our collection. 

Any ideas or advice would be most welcome!

All the best,



Heather Gillanders, MFA, MLIS
