This document discusses right-scaling stewardship of shared monographic collections in research libraries. It addresses the shifting center of gravity for core library operations to above-institution scales for activities like cataloging, selection, and collection stewardship. Examples of shared print efforts emerging at regional scales in the US are provided. The optimal scale of collaboration for book collections versus journal collections is debated. The importance of differentiating collections is emphasized, moving beyond just commoditized collections to highlight distinctive, high-value assets. Metrics for evaluating distinctiveness beyond scarcity alone are needed. Subject and identity-based centers of distinction are areas to surface for reputation management. The focus going forward is described as being less about de-selection and more about re-selection
