WEST Disclosure Policy

• WEST Disclosure Guidelines– Disclosure supports collection analysis, discovery and resource sharing– Records submitted to OCLC and the Print Archives Preservation Registry

(PAPR) – Consistent with the OCLC Shared Print Metadata Guidelines

• Key Features– Separate shared print symbol (XXXSP) (corresponds to location)– Local Holdings Records (LHRs)– 561 custodial history– 583 preservation action notes (3 possible notes, only one note

“committed to retain” required for Bronze)

WEST Access Policy

• WEST Access Guidelines– Basic assumptions about the WEST archives– Terms of access and delivery– Statistics to track

• Key Features– WEST Archive Holders agree to lend WEST materials to WEST member libraries (and

may also lend WEST materials to non-WEST libraries).

– The WEST lending library may use its own local lending policies to administer WEST loans, including loan period, fees (if any), and restrictions on number of items lent.

– Scans/photocopies preferred, physical volumes for in-library use only.

– Archive Holders may lend Bronze volumes to their own patrons for use outside the library.

WEST Lending

• WEST Archive Holders have “shared print” OCLC symbols to identify their WEST holdings (and any others).

• There is an OCLC Group Access Capability (GAC) for WEST, a grouping of all WEST member libraries’ OCLC symbols.

• All WEST members are able to view each other's bibliographic, local holdings and summary holdings records through FirstSearch using the GAC, and the group (GAC) may be used to control lending through the Policies Directory.

Implementing WEST Lending

• Define entries in the OCLC Policies Directory for the shared print symbol

• Update supplier status to indicate “supplier” (Check “OCLC Supplier”).

• For “Copy” policy, enter policies related to delivery of physical or digital copies.

• For “Loan” policy:– If you provide loans of these volumes in general, enter your usual loan

policies.

– If you will loan WEST volumes only to WEST members (by library policy), create a deflection rule for Loans with a “deflection exception” to include the WEST GAC (i.e. deflect all loan requests made to the shared print symbol except those coming from a WEST GAC member).

Implementing WEST Borrowing

• Add “WEST” to your Affiliation list in OCLC Constant Data, so WEST will automatically display on borrowing requests

• If you maintain Custom Holdings groups (such as “Free Loans”), add any appropriate WEST shared print symbols to those lists

• WEST materials designated by symbols with non-supplier status may lend under their original symbol only. Check the Policies Directory.

• For ILLIAD, add WEST symbols to the Address Book. Create a WEST group, and “tag” WEST libraries’ address book entries to mark them as part of this group.

JRNL participation

• Journal Retention and Needs Listing (JRNL), facilitates “Needs and Offers”

• WEST Implementation planned for Summer 2015

• Bronze Archive Holders are not required to actively fill gaps but are

expected to receive gaps when offered

• Archive Holders will be able to expose archived holdings in JRNL to

facilitate “Needs and Offers”; Holders will be able to download formatted

archived title reports from AGUA for import into JRNL

• JRNL facilitates offers/communications

• Allows Holders to access a larger community of potential “offerers”
