Ms. Payne is Executive Director of the Washington Research Library
Consortium (WRLC), supporting cooperation among eight universities in
the Washington, DC area: American University, The Catholic University of
America, Gallaudet University, George Mason University, George
Washington University, Georgetown University, Marymount University, and
the University of the District of Columbia. Since joining WRLC in 1989,
Ms. Payne has presided over the implementation and ongoing development
of WRLC's shared digital library system (known as ALADIN), and the
construction and operation of a shared library storage facility which
began operations in 1994. Ms. Payne has been active in the field of
library consortia and library storage facilities. In 2007 OCLC
commissioned her to develop a report synthesizing the existing state of
the art and future issues affecting library offsite storage. She holds
an M.L.S. from the University of Maryland, College Park, and an M.B.A.
from The George Washington University.

ILS. Prior to his position with CONSORT, Michael was employed for nearly
eleven years by the vendor (Innovative Interfaces) of the system. He
received his MLIS from UC Berkeley and a BA/BSC from McMaster University
in Hamilton, Canada. Michael is also the manager of the remote storage
facility, CONStor, that is shared by the four CONSORT schools as well as
Oberlin College, the other member of the Five Colleges of Ohio consortium.

Judy Ruttenberg has been a Project Librarian at TRLN since November

College Park and an MA from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst.
Description
/Keynote Presentation--Lizanne Payne/
*Shared Library Storage and the Future of Print Collections*
Most library storage facilities in use today are owned and operated by
individual universities; only about 20% of the facilities are shared
among multiple libraries. A number of factors are encouraging the
development of additional shared facilities or shared access agreements.
The time is right to develop regional or national print repository
networks for collective management and preservation of library
collections at the system level, while freeing shelving space for new
materials at the local campus level.
/Michael Upfold/
*How to Run a Storage Facility*
This presentation will focus on the acquisition, implementation, and
operation of CONStor, a 'do-it-yourself' storage facility, which is
located in an existing facility, and is operated with minimal expense
and staffing. The facility has been in use for over seven years, during
which time library priorities have changed, as have the theory and
practices regarding the storage of little-used materials. The Five
Colleges of Ohio are also members of the OhioLINK system, so that
developments in the larger shared system also have an effect on current
practices and planning for the future.
/Judy Ruttenberg/
*TRLN Single Copy Program*
Members of the Triangle Research Libraries Network (TRLN) have
decades-long agreements in place for print cooperative collection
development, and a more recent portfolio of collectively negotiated
shared electronic resources. With each member of TRLN committed to
participation in both LOCKSS and Portico, and an off-site storage
agreement between two major partners in the consortium, a Task Group was
created to build a formal Single Copy serials program for the
consortium. This presentation will focus on the development of policies
for retention of last or single copies among research libraries --
including selection of titles, equity in contributions, and services.
Other issues include a public-private school partnership, the impact of
de-duplication on ARL rank, and the broader context of print and
electronic preservation.
*Panel and Audience Discussion: What are the Issues for Kentucky?*
Following the prepared remarks, the audience will be invited to ponder
the storage issues in Kentucky. All presenters will be available on the
panel to add comments and suggestions.
Meal
Continental Breakfast and snacks will be available. Lunch is on your own
in the area.
