Updates include: 

• Introduction of “Core Items” to avoid the removal of key material during weeding processes (for example, books about local history). 
• Enhancements to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Analysis. 
• A new level of insight is now accessible from summary reports, so that you can take action to make improvements instantly.  

Current customers should contact their dedicated collectionHQ or cHQlite representative for more information about these enhancements.
