| Summary: | In 1974 a study was made of alternatives for centralized book processing for the South Central Regional Library (SCRL) of Ontario, Canada. The planners first examined the general benefits of centralized processing as to staff, time, space, standardization cost, coordination, and utilization of new technology, and then examined these benefits specifically in relation to the SCRL. After a study of three possible centers, the planners recommended the Niagara Regional Library System as the central processor for SCRL, and made further recommendations as to budgets and costs as well as for further cooperation with other libraries and regional centers. An appendix contains standards for cataloging, classification, and filing. (LS) |
