Books Not for College Libraries.

Farber, Evan Ira

Library Journal, v122 n13 p44-45 Aug 1997

Although weeding can save libraries money, shelving time, and increase circulation, it can create serious political problems for college librarians. Proposes a method of compiling lists of candidate titles for weeding based on a comparison of recommended titles lists contained in three editions (1967, 1975, 1988) of Books for College Libraries.
