Presentation presented at the Ohio Valley Group of Technical Services Librarians on May 19, 2015. Many libraries are withdrawing materials from their government documents collections. The University of Cincinnati Libraries began their withdrawal project by withdrawing tangible materials which had corresponding online equivalent versions. This presentation will explain the catalog search strategies to identify print/online equivalent materials in a collection when starting a withdrawal project. It will also discuss how a library can easily continue this as an ongoing process. There will be information provided on how all new GPO e-resource records are run against a script that identifies if the library owns a tangible equivalent, which then could be a candidate for withdrawal
