Council of Australian State Libraries (CASL) working group on stack management: Guidelines for planning collection storage of physical collections

A review of a library's current collection storage and access situation is a good starting point for the development of a long-term storage plan. The review should consider factors such as collection development policy; statutory responsibilities, for example, Legal Deposit; historical arrangements and cataloguing practices; access and preservation requirements of different categories of the collection; and especially, the range of formats to be stored.
