Pelletier Library Winnowing Project

It’s time to review books for Pelletier Library’s winnowing project. Faculty are invited to review titles tagged for possible removal in two call number ranges: 370 to 399, which includes Higher Education and Communications, and 560 to 599, which includes the Life Sciences (Biology, Botany, Zoology). Click here for a list of topics. The review of titles in 370 – 399 and 560 – 599 begins November 22, 2019 and lasts until January 24, 2020. Faculty interested in reviewing titles are invited to stop by the InfoDesk to pick up a winnowing envelope. Note that the library will be closed between December 23 and January 1, 2020.


As a reminder, the review of call number ranges 320 to 329 and 335 to 339 will end after Thanksgiving Break on Friday, December 6, 2019. A full list of call number ranges under review is listed on the project’s website https://sites.google.com/allegheny.edu/winnowing.
