I am currently investigating different methods of surveying our library's
entire collection to determine priorities for a preservation policy and
disaster preparedness plan.  I am wondering if anyone could describe how
your institution conducted such a survey.  Was the survey done by an outside
professional or done in-house by staff?  What type of database, forms, and
standards did you use?  Any information or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thank you,
