ALCTS webinar: Buying Library Materials on the Out-of-Print Book Market

"The out-of-print market offers advantages to libraries that are willing to tap into this source of millions of books. This webinar will explain how the distinctions between the print and out-of-print marketplace are blurring. The presentation will show how the out-of-print market offers potential cost-savings and allows libraries to build retrospective collections, and replace missing items. In some cases, purchasing the out-of-print book may be a cost effective substitute for interlibrary loan" - October 6, 2010
