Joint Building and Sharing for Regional High-Density Preservation Library: Taking ReCAP as an Example

Abstract

Abstract:

Insufficient space for rapidly expanding library collection is a common problem faced by all academic libraries. This paper, taking ReCAP (Research Collections and Preservation Consortium) as an example, introduces in detail a successful project of document preservation facility jointly built by
three research libraries including Columbia University, Princeton University and New York Public Library. ReCAP is a successful project that enables document conservation, circulation and resource sharing across regions, universities and systems, providing reference for academic libraries in China facing the same problem, and suggesting possibility of similar regional joint facility in China.

Key words: ReCAP, High-density preservation, The U.S. research library, Public library, Academic library
