Dear Ms. Priyanka Vasudeva;

Thanks for your post. The confusion is quite natural and common; especially in the perspective of  shortage of space, funds and manpower. However, before weeding out old collections of journals, please consult your auditors or head of Finance and Accounts. Weeding out old periodicals WHICH ARE NOT NEEDED for institute irks a very unpleasant question: why at all, the journals were subscribed? The question is quite baffling for government funded organizations though, because wastage of public money is concerned. However, there are several subjects which gets obsolete over a specific period of time. I believe that you are familier with the issues like nascency and half life of subjects in the perspective of Bibliometrics/Scientometrics and in case you can explain such weeding out in that perspective, the matter will be solved to some extent. But above all , you should arrange to set up a committee to offiicially examine such wedding out policy and upon its written recommendation journals can be weeded out.
