1. U KRR: the happy hydra UKSG Conference April 2011 Briefing Session

2. Looking at.. What.. Why.. How.. Bigger picture.. Over to you..

3. Why -1.. Key aims Protecting research information: 1 copy held at the BL - access copy 2 copies within UKRR members’ collections 100 km shelf space to be released: Collaborative collection management Members dispose material whilst retaining access

4. Why – 2.. Access to funds for de-duplication Premium document delivery service from British Library Capital cost savings - institutional level 100 km shelf space to be released

5. Why - 3.. Duplication of holdings Estate pressures – increase in student nos. Alignment with institutional strategies Growth of e-sustainable archives Sharing paradigm: ‘JiT’ v ‘JiC’

7. How -1 5 year scheme: 2009 - 2014 6-monthly cycles: manage workflow achievable targets: 10km per cycle simplifies planning process

8. High level process SubmissionReviewDecision

9. Member completes template with details of the titles they wish to de-duplicate UKRR template is loaded into LARCH Validation, pre- processing step Scarcity checking, detailing number of copies held by UKRR members. Member sends samples of requested titles to BL Combing scarcity data and BL responses a retention status is assigned to the offered titles; Automatic matching of titles already offered to UKRR. Shelf checks are made against all newly offered titles. Samples of items not identified are requested. Offered items are checked against BL holdings, using samples from member if necessary. This is an iterative process and regular responses are provided. Process Level 0 Submission Review Decision Extra Universe UKRR Intra Universe UKRR Selection

10. Submission stage Bibliographic details: Local ref code / Shelf mark Title is a compulsory field ISSN or Publisher & Place of Publication Local holdings: Supplement details Gaps – detail any Shelf space – entered in metres and centimetres

11. Data snapshot

12. Review stage Check to establish: If title has been offered previously If offering matches existing BL holding Whether the offered holdings needed at BL Triggers email queries between BL & library

13. What does that really mean.. ISSN= ???? Title: Research reports Offered: 1997 - 2001 Place of publication: ?? Publisher:?? Which means: Can’t match to previous offerings BL catalogue matches.... >1k matches

14. What is scarcity checking? The process by which parallel holdings are identified within UKRR Default status is ‘retain’ unless demonstrated otherwise 3 stage process: Automated title checking Manual matched to holdings level Finally matched to previous UKRR offered holdings

15. Process level 1b

16. What achieved so far..

17. 30k metres processed to date..

18. What lies behind these nos? 27k holding runs offered 13k unique titles 4k ≥ 2 (33%) 1k ≥ 5 (8%) 100 ≥ 10 (0.8%) 3 ≥ 15 (0.02%) ergo 29 heterogeneous collections

19. Most frequently offered titles

20. UKRR – a distributed collection

22. Linked Automated Register of Collaborative Holdings
