The College Library Information on Policy and Practice (CLIPP) book series from ACRL provides college and small university libraries analysis and examples of library practices and procedures. Supporting Diversity through Collection Evaluation, Development, and Weeding: CLIPP #48
contains a thorough literature review and bibliography, analysis and discussion of survey results, and sample library collection development policies; diversity, equity, and justice statements; and a harmful content policy. There are emerging practices for evaluating collection diversity and for diversifying collections via acquisitions, but the question of how collection diversity factors into weeding--either in theory or in practice--has not been thoroughly explored. CLIPP #48 provides a comprehensive survey of how diversity-enhancing collection management practices have filtered into the day-to-day work of average small and medium-sized academic libraries, and offers models for library workers who want to incorporate diversity concerns and policies into collection management practices.
