	The Process of Weeding Out - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Process of Weeding Out is an EP released by Black Flag in 1985 on SST Records.
		The title is a reference to the band "weeding out" fans who didn't appreciate the band's instrumental explorations and wanted only to hear hardcore punk material.
		This is remarkably snapped out of at 7m42s when Ginn stumbles upon a classic punk rock riff which in turn re-ignites the song into a looser version of its original self.

		Weeding is an important part of the collection development process and should occur on a regular basis.
		Weeding should be an ongoing part of the workflow of a library to assure that the collection has adequate space to grow and contains materials that are current and relevant to the curriculum and the research needs of the faculty and students.
		The weeding process is quite involved: each title is checked against Books for College Libraries 3rd edition; the circulation history of the item is reviewed; and, the item is compared against the curriculum.

		Weeding is the process of clearing the collections in the library of those materials which have outlived their usefulness.
		Withdrawing materials is a continuing process but weeding the collection is a carefully planned procedure almost as important as selecting new books of high quality.
		An annual weeding of the collection would not be out of order, but a complete weeding every 3 or 4 years is imperative.

	Weeding (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
		Weeding should be an important facet of collection building, if a collection should become vibrant and up-to-date and remain so.
		While some of the reasons for weeding, such as the physical condition of a book, the existence of a duplicate copy of a work, and space constraints, are quite straightforward, other factors such as age and obsolescence are not that straightforward.
		The process of weeding from identification to removal to disposal is, therefore, not an easy one nor is it to be taken lightly.

	Connections 45 - Weeding the Resource Garden
		A special parents and citizens' meeting was called at which the teacher librarian had to justify her actions; a staff meeting was called at which she had to appease teachers who had lost the use of a particular book and the principal had to be reassured that proper procedures had been followed.
		The teacher librarian spent significant time and effort in damage control, putting out fires and convincing all interested parties that it really was in the best interest of the students to remove resources that, for example, suggested that one day man will walk on the moon.
		Weeding should not be treated in isolation but should be seen within the context of the whole collection development process for the school's resources.

	Weeding the Garden
		Unfortunately, some school planners leave out some of the most important steps in the planning process, installing a network without cultivating the soil - investing in program development or professional development.
		The importance of program and curriculum is often ignored or overlooked in the enthusiastic laying out of garden pathways, reflection pools and borders.
		Unfortunately, weeding is not always a popular act, as teacher librarians sometimes discover when setting aside aging books and other materials whose contents no longer merit inclusion in the school collection.

		Weeding relates to collection management in two ways; first, individual items become worn or out of date or no longer appropriate to curriculum or to student interests.
		Because so much of the weeding process is based on the school curriculum and on how teachers implement curriculum as well as on specific interests of faculty and students in a particular school, typical advice to new media specialists is to not weed in the first year in a building.
		Weeding during inventory may also be used as a supplement to the formal weeding process.

		Evaluation of the collection for weeding purposes will employ the guidelines noted in the Library’s Selection Policy, along with core collection recommendations, listings of indexed materials, and other relevant collection analysis tools that the librarians and classroom-discipline-based faculty may choose.
