I’m tempted to post this as “Theorizing the Collection 5,” but since the individual in question is apparently an artist rather than an academic (or a librarian!), I’ll just call it “the aesthetics of deaccessioning.” However, Julia Weist’s unique reading/weeding research project into why romance novels fail to linger on the shelves is far from MUSTIE. Now, this is something that I would have loved to see at the ALISE “innovative research” sessions in Denver this January!
