Our consortium is setting up a subcommittee to talk about maintenance tasks. We are thinking on when and how often to run missing, lost, etc. lists to determine if it is time to delete items that have been in that status for any number of years. We have a list of the items statuses but what else are we missing that should be tackled at the branch level since we are all independent library’s. At this time we don’t really have an SA so any suggestions would be helpful.
I’m attaching the schedule our circulation committee for the consortium put together a while back. Maybe it will be helpful

Thanks Trevor! I have some of the tasks you have listed and some I don’t and those are the ones I need. 
Hi Trish - here is the document we’ve put together for our libraries (we have 36 member libraries, but are also in a consortium with 3 other library systems). The formatting on this is a bit off since I’m currently updating it, but hopefully it helps. Trevor, I’m going to have a look at yours to see if there’s anything else we are missing!

I love your format! I am struggling with getting other libraries in our county to do regular maintenance and run notices regularly. I have my staff running notices and lists on a schedule, but was afraid there were some I was not getting to. Thanks so much for sharing!
