The Problem with IT books in print
We are currently having problems with ensuring
that new books in certain subject areas,
especially computer languages/programing are
available for the students in that major. The
problems that we are running into is that as soon
as a new computer book is placed on the shelf a
patron either hides it (i.e. behind other books,
in a study corral, etc.) or steals it (this is an
increasing problem). Another big problem is that
a small group of students will check a new book
out and renew it between themselves such that no
one else is able to use the book for 1-2 years,
by which time it is outdated and the next edition
has been purchased and the cycle begins again.
Issuing holds and recalls does not work very
efficiently, as the majority of students who have
checked out new books either ignore the recalls
or line up friends ahead of time to place holds
and check the book out in their name while the
same student actually keeps the book. With the
computer books, the students are often using them
as textbooks. An obvious solution would be to
buy multiple copies. However, with budget cuts,
the expense of computer books, and the quickness
with which the subject becomes outdated, this is
not a feasible option for us. ILL is not a
feasible option either, especially in this area,
as many academic libraries (us included) do not
lend new computer books out to other libraries.
We would like to know if other academic libraries
are having a similar problem, what are you doing
(if anything) to try to alleviate the problem,
the pros/cons, student reaction, and how
effectively is it working. One solution that we
are especially interested in getting feedback on
is if anyone has created and is currently using a
"closed stack" collection. By this I mean that
the books would be kept behind the Circulation
Desk similar to Reserves or a Periodicals
"Thieves" Collection (current issues of popular
journals that disappear when left in the regular
periodicals collection). Access would be
restricted to our students/faculty. When an item
from the "closed stack" is wanted the Circulation
staff would retrieve it and check it out to the
patron. We are also considering placing a maximum
checkout limit and/or reducing the checkout
period based on subject area/new material
criteria in our problem areas. Thank you,
Linda LeBlanc Access Services Librarian
