Hi Folks,

At my library we've been having some discussions about the future of our
print reference collections:

   - Who uses it and how?
   - Should we be moving towards digital resources instead? (A challenge
   with art, as image content isn't always in digital versions, or suitable
   digital resources may not be available)
   - Can we make it more relevant and user friendly through feedback from
   our users/ by moving it/ different signage etc?

Has anyone else recently done work with their Reference Collections that
can share some insight? Weeding, usage studies, redesign etc?

Sincerely,
Carla-Mae
