Reorganizing the Research Library: a system-wide perspectiveConstance Malpas
The document discusses reorganizing research libraries from a system-wide perspective. It notes that as more content becomes available electronically, the boundaries and functions of individual libraries are changing, with collections moving off-site and resources redirecting from print to digital. This large-scale transition is impacting the entire academic library system and requiring collaboration between institutions.
The Big Shift: Managing Research Collections in the CloudConstance Malpas
The document discusses managing research collections in the cloud. It notes the shift from print to electronic resources and the need for shared print services to preserve legacy print collections. Specifically, it outlines the growth of off-site storage facilities and digital repositories like HathiTrust, and explores opportunities for libraries to leverage these shared infrastructures to reduce costs while ensuring long-term access and preservation of collections.
Future of Academic Collections: leveraging shared capacityConstance Malpas
This document discusses trends in academic libraries that are driving changes in how print collections are managed. As libraries shift spending to electronic resources, the cost of maintaining print collections is increasing. Studies show declining circulation of print materials and increasing reliance on external collections. There is an opportunity for libraries to leverage shared infrastructure like off-site storage facilities and digital repositories to cooperatively manage legacy print collections and digitized content at a reduced cost. This could allow libraries to reallocate resources as the role of the academic library evolves.
Reconfiguring Academic Collections: the role of shared print repositoriesConstance Malpas
MLAC provides shared print repository services for academic libraries in Minnesota. With the shift from print to electronic resources and declining space in libraries, shared print repositories are playing an increasingly important role in preserving print collections. This presentation discusses the growth of shared print infrastructure nationally and how MLAC can maximize its value by rationalizing holdings and providing print fulfillment services for titles available in the HathiTrust Digital Library. The role of shared print is expanding as libraries seek to reduce costs and free up space while still guaranteeing access to print materials.
Print Management at Mega-Scale: Focus on Academic LibrariesConstance Malpas
This document summarizes an OCLC Research webinar on print book management at regional scales. The webinar discussed opportunities for cooperation across North American library consortia and "mega-regions", defined as large geographic areas with high economic integration. Presenters Brian Lavoie and Constance Malpas explored how print book holdings are distributed across mega-regions and library types. They found that while academic libraries hold the majority of print books, their capacity for long-term stewardship is uncertain. Cooperative infrastructure across consortia could maximize coverage of the print book collection and enable more sustainable stewardship models.
Print Management at "Mega"-scale: NITLE Collections in a Mega-regions FrameworkConstance Malpas
The presentation discusses print book management strategies at a regional or "mega-scale" level. It analyzes the print book collections of NITLE member libraries within mega-regions, particularly the Bos-Wash region which contains over half of North American print titles. While NITLE libraries collectively hold a large portion of print titles, long-term preservation requires cooperation across institutions. Regional coordination allows for more efficient redistribution of stewardship responsibilities. NITLE is well-positioned to participate in regional print initiatives and represent liberal arts colleges given its members are distributed across mega-regions in North America.
OCLC Research: NITLE and/in the Systemwide LibraryNITLE
Brian Lavoie and Constance Malpas of the OCLC Research will give a presentation on their activities on Print Management at Mega Scale and the theme of the library as a systemwide resource. They will provide some context with a general description of the System-wide Organization research portfolio, then move into discussion of the “Print Management at ‘Mega-Scale’” report, focusing in particular on what they are calling the “extra-regional” print collection (i.e., library collections that fall outside the 12 major North American mega-regions). A fair number of NITLE Network members are located in that extra-regional zone; this seminar provides a useful opportunity to engage in a dialogue about how and where small research-oriented institutions fit in the library (and higher-education) system as a whole. We will also discuss what part of the North American print book collection is held by NITLE Network members and continue considering what these will mean for the future of the liberal arts college library and NITLE Shared LibrariesTM.
A Mega-regional Perspective on Print Books in Southern California LibrariesConstance Malpas
This document summarizes data on print book holdings in libraries across Southern California. It finds that the region holds over 9.7 million book titles, accounting for 20% of titles in North America. The majority (78%) of titles are held by fewer than 5 libraries. While most titles are held by academic libraries, particularly non-ARL institutions, pressures may lead these libraries to invest less in print over time. Regional coordination could help leverage existing resource sharing to improve access and preservation of this important research collection.
Library Stewardship and the Evolving Scholarly Record: A Ten Thousand Foot V...Constance Malpas
This document discusses the evolving landscape of library collections and stewardship. It notes that the scholarly record is growing in volume and complexity, and stewardship models are evolving in response. Responsibility for collections is becoming more distributed, and there is a trend toward greater coordination and resource sharing between institutions. This includes the development of shared print repositories and initiatives where groups of libraries commit to long-term stewardship of portions of collections. The value of local collections is shifting from depth and breadth to facilitating system-wide access and curation of print collections through collaboration at different scales.

OCLC Research Update, ALA Annual - Evolving Scholarly RecordConstance Malpas
This document summarizes a presentation about the evolving scholarly record and the changing roles of stakeholders. As the scholarly record transitions from print to digital, its format and content are diversifying beyond traditional articles and monographs to include research data, videos, and more. This is impacting how the scholarly record is created, fixed, used, and collected. Responsibility for stewardship of the scholarly record is also increasingly distributed across different stakeholders like libraries, publishers and researchers. Moving forward, there is a need for community consultation on frameworks and models to help coordinate custody of the distributed scholarly record.

matters and this is filler unburdened by legacy
to adjust spacing print mandate
• Collections of distinction • Distinctive purpose
• Doing the same, better • Transforming the portfolio
• Change is possible • Change is imperative
A new coalition is needed
to advance the research library agenda
6. System-wide organization
Research theme addresses “big picture” questions about the
future of libraries in the network environment; implications
for collections, services, institutions embedded in complex
networks of collaboration, cooperation and exchange
• Characterization of the aggregate library resource
Collections, services, user behaviors, institutional profiles
• Re-organization of individual libraries in network context
Institutions adapting to changes in system-wide organization
• Re-organization of the library system in network context
„Multi-institutional‟ library framework, collective adaptation
7. Defining characteristics of SO activities
• Emphasis on analytic frameworks and heuristic models
that characterize (academic) library service environment
as a whole
• Identifying and interpreting patterns in distribution,
character, use and value of library resource; implications
for future organization of collections and services
• Provides context for decision-making, not prescriptive
judgments about a single, best course of action
• Shared understanding of how network environment is
transforming library organization on micro and macro level
8. Exemplar:
Re-organization of library system
• Externalization of print repository function facilitates
redirection of institutional resources; new scholarly record
• Cloud Library analysis (OCLC, Hathi, NYU, ReCAP)
• Case study in de-composition of library service bundle: “cloud
sourcing” research collections
• Data-mining Hathi and WorldCat to determine where cost-
effective reductions in print inventory can be achieved for
individual libraries (micro economic context)
• Characterizing optimal service profile for shared print/digital
service providers; collective market for service (macro
economic context)
• Exploring social and economic infrastructure requirements;
technical infrastructure a separate, secondary challenge
9. Prediction
Within the next 5-10 years, focus of shared print archiving
and service provision will shift to monographic collections
• large scale service hubs will provide low-cost print
management on a subscription basis;
• reducing local expenditure on print operations, releasing
space for new uses and facilitating a redirection of library
resources;
• enabling rationalization of aggregate print collection and
renovation of library service portfolio
Mass digitization of retrospective print
collections will drive this transition

• Is selective externalization of print management functions
to Penn State or another potential provider an option?
• Can faculty be persuaded that shared print strategy is
sound?
• How soon does change need to happen?
Editor's Notes
With that as background, I’d like to offer a prediction about the future of shared print, and that’s our attention will begin to shift to pooled management of the retrospective print book collection. With this shift, I think we will see the emergence of a relatively small number of larger service hubs providing just-in-time delivery and longterm preservation services on a subscription basis. Individual academic libraries will contract with those service providers because they offer a cost efficient alternative to local operations and more importantly because they allow the library to redirect its attention and resources to renovating its service portfolio. As a result, I think we will see a progressive rationalization of the systemwide print book collection.I belive mass digitization of retrospective print collections will be a primary driver in this transition, preceding a broader shift to commercial provisioning of e-books.
How big is this shift likely to be and on what timeline? Over the last year we have studied the mass digitized book corpus in the context of systemwide print holdings and have found that a substantial part of the average academic library is already substantially duplicated. This scatter chart provide a simple but effective visualization of an important pattern that this project has revealed: that is, that the risks and opportunities associated with moving collection management ‘into the cloud’ are uniformly distributed across the research library community as a whole. [CLICK] This is a picture of the ARL membership (a microcosm of the larger research library community) that shows the level of duplication between individual library collections and the mass digitized book collection in Hathi. Over the course of this project, we have seen the rate of duplication between locally held print and mass digitized books increase steadily and significantly. In June of last year, an average of 20% of monographic titles in an academic library were duplicated in the Hathi repository; today that figure is about 30% (up to 40% for some institutions). [CLICK] In real terms, this means that rate of digital replication is exceeding the pace of growth in monographic acquisitions in most academic institutions. We estimate that the rate of duplication has increased by about 8% per library in the past year. Monographic acquisitions typically grow at about 2% per year in research libraries.A very low standard deviation (variance of ~4%), and across the population very little movement outside this range: 2/3rds of ARL community falls within standard deviation. [CLICK] We project that in a year’s time, many academic libraries are liable to find themselves “underwater,” holding a massive inventory of over-valued assets.Library directors will be called to account and expected to respond to questions about how an increasingly redundant local print collection is serving the educational and research mission of theparent institution. We need to be preparing for a world in which just-in-time, print on demand delivery is an option for a large share of the retrospective book collection.
Another major finding of our study is that the mass digitized book corpus is substantially ‘backed up’ in one or more large-scale storage collections. As I mentioned earlier, we have a very incomplete picture of what’s currently in storage, so this figure may actually be quite a bit higher. The figures here are based on just 5 major repositories The important point is that we seem to have the beginnings of what I characterized earlier as a ‘strategic reserve’ of print that could significantly offset the costs of local operations. As you can see here, the proportion has remained relatively stable over the course the past year. As of this month, about 2.5 million of the 3.5 million digitized books in Hathi are also held in one or more of 5 large scale shared print repositories.
This is a picture of how the potential value of individual print storage collections has evolved in the past year, as the mass digitized corpus in Hathi has grown. Currently, about 75% of the mass digitized book collection is ‘backed up’ in one or more of the 5 large print storage collections that we have examined. I want to say a little bit about what’s causing this increase in shared print coverage, from just over 60% a year ago to almost 75% today. Much of the change is associated with the increasing visibility of individual storage repositories (institutional disclosure) and with the increasing visibility of holdings in those repositories.A few key observations: collectively, a small number of SP repositories provide substantial coverage of the mass digitized book collection. We don’t need many libraries to tuck away inventory to ‘back up’ the digitized resource – and it may be counterproductive to do so. If you had to pick a single surrogate print supplier, it would be LC, whose collections substantially duplicate the corpus of mass digitized books. But it is not obvious that LC can or should assume this role. Finally, and perhaps most importantly, the net increase in coverage that we have seen in the last 12 months is due in large part to the increasing visibility of storage holdings at these repositories. For example, the big bump we see in UC Regional Library Facilities holdings happened in October last year when the NRLF holdings in Richmond CA became visible under a distinctive library symbol in WorldCat. The visibility of ReCAP holdings increased when we enriched the holdings data (which are external to WorldCat) with OCLC numbers. I’m not sure what happened to increase the visibility of the LC holdings, but I’d guess it has to do with a batch process in WorldCat. I want to emphasize that without better and more comprehensive disclosure of storageholdings, it is very difficult to assess the carrying capacity of existing print preservation infrastructure.
As we look to the future, it is clear that the academic library environment as a whole is changing. Here I have plotted projections for the duplication of academic print collections in the HathiTrust Digital Library for a range of academic libraries in the state of Pennsylvania. The blue and violet lines at the top of the stack represent smaller academic institutions . We predict that 50% of their library holdings will be duplicated within the coming year. At research intensive institutions, that watershed moment will occur somewhat later. At the largest research libraries, it may take another year or two before redundant print inventory begins to look less like an asset and more like a liability. But this change is coming, and we need to plan for it.
