Shared Print

Shared print

Shared print is a movement in which libraries work together on a coordinated, community-wide effort to preserve print collections through collective action. Today a variety of partnerships and collaborations house, manage, and provide access to physical collections. CRL works to support the diverse efforts of these collective efforts for our members and the needs of the larger library community.

CRL supports shared print in many ways:

Supporting the PAN Forum. A biannual meeting that shares information, expertise and best practices on the strategic management of print holdings.
Building the JSTOR print archive by assembling a collection of JSTOR archive journal volumes in print form for the use of CRL library members.
Working with other shared print programs and collaborative efforts to govern and standardize collaborative programs.
