• An empirically derived framework (Richard Florida, et al.) based on regional economic activity; mega-regions are a ‘natural unit’ for analysis
• Helps situate print management within broader networks of economic exchange; builds on existing organizational infrastructure and institutional interests
• Shared print management efforts being undertaken at variable (and overlapping) scale; we have no objective benchmarks for establishing appropriate scale of action
• For monographic literature especially, we believe a model based on economic ‘flows’ is an appropriate choice

Ducks-in-a-Row Special Collections Facility checklist
•Establishes baseline criteria for borrowing and hosting special collections materials from other libraries
•Lenders can use to set expectations
•Borrowers can use to demonstrate compliance
•Borrowers can share with administration as evidence of need to upgrade
•Borrowers can use as conversation starter with lender (if they meet a subset of criteria but not 100%)

Tiered approach to processing ILL requests for special collections
•Lays out three levels of effort and complexity
•Flexible framework can be adapted to fit each institution’s needs
• Once upon a time all such requests received the deluxe treatment in the third column
•Embraces the principle that not all special collections items are equally special
•Requests for some classes of material can be handled by ILL staff without consultation
•Affirms that lending physical item is still very much the exception
