Proceso de evaluación, relegación y expurgo en la Biblioteca Maimónides de la Universidad de Córdoba.

Currently, the collection management needs a set of tools and actions that contribute to its ongoing evaluation. Its aim is to achieve a significant collection adapted to the users needs. Among the highlighted actions we emphasize the weeding. We analyze the evaluation process, relegation and weeding in the Maimonides Library, University of Córdoba, the factors that determine their location, their periodicity, sequential intervention, services involved, timing and objectives. All actions are part of a self-regulatory process of the collection and ongoing evaluation of it. We expose the characteristics of Maimonides library's collections, their origin, their evolution, the library holdings under the weeding and the considered exceptions. Furthermore, we develop an analysis of the previous actions, to the implementation of the process, which consisted in the duplicated book's donations. These actions were put into practice since the library creation. The results are considered a basic tool in management collection, such as the update of the collection of free access, freedom of space, restructuring them, as well as sections, recolocation and improvement of library collections.
