What about Shared Print for Journals?
The SCELC Shared Print Program focuses on making retention commitments for circulating print monographs.
For journals, the Western Regional Storage Trust (WEST) is the regional program that provides a comprehensive journals retention program. Participants support WEST’s efforts to identify journal retention needs, contribute holdings for overlap analysis, specify libraries to build or hold specific runs of journals, and to develop and maintain the software necessary for collection analysis and record-keeping. Participants can take advantage of WEST’s resource sharing policies and discovery tools. SCELC libraries may participate in WEST with billing through SCELC - no surcharge applies.
