Abstract

Editing stock is a challenge for all libraries but this is particularly true in the area of art, design and communication. The authors describe a project in a London-based art, design and communication university, University of the Arts London, to agree on guidelines which would keep stock current and relevant, but at the same time safeguard valuable material for present and future use.
