Since I am not officially a member of this committee, I have a few questions/comments
1. Are you developing criteria for DDA project(s) or for owned ebook titles? I think the latter is the crucial part needing maintenance ASAP.
2. While I think creating general criteria is definitely needed, has the committee considered how the the criteria will be applied? for instance, starting with specific ebook collections or doing it by whatever meets the criteria across collections?
3. I agree with Crystal completely that we need to get rid of older editions, especially in the health sciences, unless there is some specific reason why a particular older edition is valuable.
4. Is the committee planning to have the items removed from the vendor's platform as well?
