Over the summer Elizabeth and I have assessed 48% of the Detective Fiction collection on Level 7. Of this 48% 18% has been reclassified (or is in the process of being) and 30% withdrawn.

If you want actual numbers – 1113 out of 2287 items done, 431 reclassified, 682 withdrawn.

Much of the withdrawn material was taken by the Law academic staff and Library staff on Friday afternoon. This morning I will put the remainder on the free table at the bottom of Puaka James Hight.

We now need to pause this work so Elizabeth and I can focus on our Term One teaching.

After Term One Elizabeth and I will work on assessing then reclassifying/withdrawing the remaining material in the collection.   We will have another book giveaway when this work is completed.

Thanks to everyone in LAC who has assisted with the reclassifying and withdrawal of this material 🙂
