    Hi Jennifer,

    Thank you for starting this discussion, this is an interesting idea. I would be curious to hear what the circulation of those items looks like in 6-12 months compared to how they circulated in their previous location.

     

    I think it can work for an interest group Forum topic, something like:

     

    "The effect of Copy Cataloging and Shelf-listing on discoverability and circulation"

     

    I am going to share a google doc where we can post possible forum ideas.
