Timeline Goal: 10 Years
Timeline Goal: 10 Years
Due to the amount of work this goal entails, a proposed ten-year timeline will be used to reach the final goal. Each year the librarian will weed at least 531 books or more and acquire at least 1,022 to be able to reach the goal in ten years.

The program generated a TitleMap to show how the library can move through the standards from proficient, accomplished, and distinguished. To reach the goal of the average age of the collection being less than 11 years, the librarian will need to weed approximately 5,308 books and purchase 10,225 books.
