Discover how SCS allocates retention commitments after your shared print group agrees on a specific retention model.

Once your group has decided on the specific thresholds and attributes of the retention model you want to adopt, SCS allocates retention commitments to each participant library and then reloads GreenGlass to reveal this allocation.

Each participant library is expected to protect the titles for which they have been assigned retention responsibility by updating their WorldCat holdings to reflect those commitments. Once your WorldCat holdings have been updated, surplus copies can be safely and efficiently weeded.

The following features will appear in GreenGlass after your shared print group has gone through the allocation process.

GreenGlass screen Features
GROUP Collection Overview The total title-holdings allocated for retention in your shared print group appears on this screen.
Your Collection Overview The total title-holdings allocated for retention for your library appears at the bottom of this screen.
