Books are a key part of library services, and they have a life cycle from purchase to discard. Participants will learn:

• How books are selected, purchased, and cataloged for the library
• Collections beyond books--checking out electronic materials, A/V items, video games, and other materials
• How to decide when it's time to remove the book from the collection, and what happens to it afterward
