Be Aware and Prepare
• Catalog Everything! • If you have many items not in catalog, I would
scan ISBN numbers into simple Excel Spreadsheet.
• Equipment/Technology – Even simple records will do, be sure to include the following:– Title, Make(Brand), Model #, Serial #, date of
purchase, funds used to purchase

Insurance
• Find out what kind of insurance your school has for the library.
– RVC- Replacement Cost Value- best to have but more expensive and hard to get for older schools
– ACV- Actual Cost Value, this means you will get dollar amount of what item cost less depreciation

Tips
• Submit your collection periodically to vendors(free) for analysis. Provides an offsite record of your collection. (Follett-Titlewave, Burrows Library Service, etc.)
• Back up collection regularly and have an off-site copy
• Back up everything you wouldn’t want to lose!

More Tips
• Always, always have a wish list or several. One of things you were ready to purchase, one of items that you would like to have and one of things you dream of having.
• Have a floor plan of your library, can use Excel or Publisher
• Take lots of photos these may help you with making lists for replacing items
