SPAN - ACRL ND/MB SYMPOSIUM 3
Introduction COPPUL
◦ “Council of Prairie and Pacific University Libraries”◦ Purpose◦ Academic libraries in the four western provinces◦ Currently 23 member institutions
◦ “Plus 15 affiliate members that participate only in licenses for electronic resources”1
◦ Acquisitions budgets: ≈ $3M - $20M2

SPAN - ACRL ND/MB SYMPOSIUM 4
Introduction SPAN
◦ “Shared Print Archive Network”◦ Objectives
◦ To provide access to shared print archives◦ To create opportunities for the reallocation of library space◦ To preserve the print record for its members in a cost-effective way4
◦ Context◦ SPAN in PAPR, WorldCat
◦ History◦ Phase 1: summer 2012
SPAN - ACRL ND/MB SYMPOSIUM 5
How SPAN Works (Broadly) SPAN Management Committee (MC) chooses titles to archive
MC chooses which libraries to archive which titles
Libraries confirm holdings and willingness to archive
Libraries prepare volumes and bibliographic records
SPAN records commitments of libraries and transfers information to PAPR, WorldCat (soon)
SPAN - ACRL ND/MB SYMPOSIUM 6
How SPAN Works (Details) Work done in phases
SPAN MC decides focus and criteria for the phases◦ COPPUL selects resources to archive for the phase based on the criteria for the phase◦ COPPUL selects an “archive holder” from among SPAN participants based on
◦ Completeness of runs◦ Initial indications of willingness (?)
Proposed titles distributed to Archive Holders
Archive Holders examine the titles and:◦ Verify/correct their holdings◦ Indicate willingness to archive◦ Complete paperwork
SPAN MC collects/compiles responses and updates PAPR, WorldCat (soon)
SPAN - ACRL ND/MB SYMPOSIUM 7
Phase 1 2012-13
Print journals that are:◦ Widely held◦ Have digital equivalents with perpetual access (post-cancellation rights) through:
◦ Licensing terms◦ Digital archives (PORTICO, CLOCKSS, etc.)5
Retrospective
UML archived 27 journals in Phase 1
SPAN - ACRL ND/MB SYMPOSIUM 8
Phase 2 2013-14
Same criteria as Phase 1, except:◦ Less widely-held◦ Some journals without post-cancellation access◦ Some Canadian journals (both with and without post-cancellation access)
UML archived 66 journals in Phase 2
SPAN - ACRL ND/MB SYMPOSIUM 9
Phase 3 2014-15
Monographs
Continuations and preceding titles for Phase 1 & 2 journals
“High risk” journals
Canadian federal government documents◦ Statistics Canada only (for now)
UML asked to archive 35 titles so far
SPAN - ACRL ND/MB SYMPOSIUM 10
Future SPAN Possible national archiving strategy
Expansion of journal titles?◦ Especially low-use and high risk◦ Usage/preservation dilemma
SPAN - ACRL ND/MB SYMPOSIUM 11
Benefits at UML Same as SPAN’s stated objectives, i.e.:
◦ Access to shared print archives◦ Opportunities for the reallocation of library space◦ Preserve the print record cost-effectively
Also:◦ Serials cleanup
SPAN - ACRL ND/MB SYMPOSIUM 12
Issues at UML Labour-intensive setup
Limits use of resources
Unproven effectiveness in space reallocation
