Collection Management Task Force

Collection Management Task Force
Established
Approved October 2003.
Type of group
Task Force, see Committee Structure
Charge
The Collection Management Task Force (CMTF) is asked to advise Council on concrete and achievable steps the Alliance might undertake to further the development and use of member library collections as a unified collection. Recommendations should place an emphasis on practical tests, pilot projects, or other actions judged most likely to succeed in the near term. Toward this end, the Task Force is asked to review collection management initiatives among other groups of libraries (consortia, state systems, loose affiliations, distributed institutions, etc.)

In addition, the Task Force is asked to advise Council on any other aspects of consortial collection management that may require or benefit from membership involvement over the next 12 months.
Reporting
The Task Force is asked to issue a report by June 1, 2004 for consideration at Council's July meeting.
