I agree - your colleagues are your allies when it comes to print.
O'Dowd has 1165 students and 13,000+ books in print.

Will anyone please share the total number of books in their collection,
and if possible their total number of enrolled students?
I am facing an administration-instigated overhaul of the library into a
learning commons/makerspace, and the initial renderings have us going
bookless. I need to make the case for keeping a robust and healthy print
collection, not just a few token books for themed displays (the designers'
actual suggestion); I'm hoping to use the size of your collections to
support my case.
We are meeting on this tomorrow morning, so your data is needed ASAP!
Thank you in advance for helping me fight for our print collection!
