摘要
One year ago, John Carroll University instituted a policy of advising faculty selectors when an order submitted for a title already has more than eight circulating copies in OhioLINK. This article describes why the library undertook this, the implementation of the policy, its documentation, its reception, and the results after one full year. This project is an easy first step for any member of a consortium to take toward more collaborative collection development with other consortium members.
