This book addresses the growing endeavours of shared print repositories and programs in academic libraries, representing a global perspective with authors from Canada, Australia, Great Britain, and the United States. It illustrates the complicated processes and challenges of coordinating selection, determining storage agreements (distributed or shared), ownership concerns, business models, and a host of collection maintenance issues. These efforts entail immense collaboration, regardless of the size of the project. Luckily, librarians are good at collaboration, but not always good at forging ahead into an uncertain future with regard to print collections. As echoed by authors in this book, the future is indeed uncertain, but undoubtedly libraries who partner together to address print archiving dilemmas will be better prepared for whatever the future holds.

This book was originally published as a special issue of Collection Management.

Karen S. Fischer is the collection analysis librarian and library liaison to the School of Library and Information Science at the University of Iowa, USA. She has been the editor of the journal Collection Management since 2012.

Faye A. Chadwell is the Donald and Delpha Campbell University Librarian and Oregon State University, USA, Press Director.
