I too would like to request the sharing of information on eliminating
check-in as our library may move in this direction as well.

Thanks,

Rick,

I would be very interested in the results of this informal survey.
Perhaps you could summarize for the list (if there is anything to
summarize).

We have not taken any significant steps toward eliminating check-in at
BYU, other than being perhaps a bit more selective about what titles we
DO check in (daily & weekly publications).

Good luck,
Derrik Hiatt
BYU Serials Dept.
