Agricultural Libraries Information Notes Vol 14 books, Excerpt from Agricultural Libraries Information Notes, Vol. 14: August 1988 This current photo shows a number of problems, including paper becoming brittle and beginning to flake, improper support with consequent warping, various usage of string, rubber bands, post and clamp binders, Princeton files, and paper wrappings within several related series of publica tions. These series are not bound because of missing issues, multiple revisions of some numbers, and bad paper. Nal provides the personnel to collect and analyze library specific data and to plan what courses of action should be taken within its own guidelines. The reason for the Library's concern for preservation is the recognized value of the nal collection, which is a national resource for agricultural information. The material in the nal collection is especial ly valuable because it is readily available to anyone who needs it. A significant portion of the collection is held uniquely in this country by nal, and many other holdings are difficult to locate elsewhere. There fore, it is incumbent upon nal to develop effective means to ensure that the collee tion will be available in the future so that the national research effort can avoid the expensive wastes associated with repetitive investigations or reinventing the wheel. Preserving this information is essential to maximize the efficiency of scientific progress in agriculture. It is important to remember that the advance of science raises our standard of living and generally benefits the world.
