Abstract In 2015 RMIT University commenced a two-year building redevelopment project which included completely refurbishing the main library. Approximately 180,000 books were temporarily moved to off-site storage and this posed the challenge of how to manage a working collection so that there would be minimal impact on the university’s students and staff still requiring ‘just in time’ access. In preparation, the library implemented a two-year project to enable it to continue to provide high-level services for the duration of the construction work. This paper considers if logistics processes could be applied to mitigate any access issues caused by off-site storage of library resources.

运输中的图书：图书馆图书运输的物流

摘要 2015 年，皇家墨尔本理工大学开始了一项为期两年的建筑重建项目，其中包括彻底翻新主图书馆。大约 180,000 本书被暂时转移到场外存储，这带来了如何管理工作馆藏的挑战，以便对仍然需要“及时”访问的大学学生和教职员工的影响最小。在准备过程中，图书馆实施了一个为期两年的项目，使其能够在施工期间继续提供高水平的服务。本文考虑是否可以应用后勤流程来减轻因图书馆资源的异地存储引起的任何访问问题。
