I get the appeal of weeding—it’s oddly satisfying, similar to peeling sunburn or plucking a stray hair. Weeding in an academic library is satisfying in its own way. It’s also an essential summer project for us; our library is only 2 stories, with the majority of the circulating collection on the lower level. After 2 summers postponing weeding due to the pandemic, the collection is bursting at the seams.”
