Streamlining the Collection: AUE Library's Weeding Process

We understand the importance of maintaining a relevant and accessible collection for our users, which is why we regularly conduct the necessary process of weeding.

Weeding is crucial as it not only saves valuable shelf space, allowing for the addition of new and relevant materials, but also enhances the browsing experience for our patrons, making it easier to find the resources they need. By removing outdated or underused materials, we ensure that our collection remains up-to-date, appealing, and aligned with the evolving needs of our academic community.
