Abstract
This case study details the techniques, strategies, and workflow used by Sam Houston State University’s (SHSU) Newton Gresham Library in preparing materials to submit and claim with the Texas A&M University System Joint Library Facility (JLF). The article provides an overview of JLF history and operations, and details the critical factors leading to SHSU removing large numbers of print materials from its collection. Additionally, the article discusses why SHSU elected to leverage the services offered by JLF, examines challenges encountered, and reviews techniques employed to enhance the pre-check processing required to participate in JLF’s shared collection.
