cancelled electronic resources and the A-Z list Hebard, Jeanne 24 Sep 2007 12:30 UTC

What are libraries doing with their cancelled resources in regards to
their

A-Z list.  Our current practice has been to leave our cancelled
resources on the list for a year.  The link for the resource goes to an
instruction page informing the user that the resource has been cancelled
with some possible alternate resources.  We are finding that our A-Z
list is becoming too long.  Do other libraries immediately remove
cancelled resources from the A-Z list?  If so, are cancelled resources
listed anywhere and/or are alternate resources listed anywhere?  If
cancelled resources remain on the  A-Z list, for how long are the kept
on the list?

Thanks for your help,

Jeanne
