YBP APPROVAL PLAN PROFILE and
MEMORANDUM OF AGREEMENT
California Digitial Library
Shared Print Office
Canadian Literature Plan
Plan # 5306, Account # 5671-11
Dec-05
This memorandum is intended to explain the Library's arrangement with YBP Library Services, a Baker & Taylor
Company, to provide selected publications on an approval basis.
The explanation is presented in three parts. Part I briefly describes the procedures which govern billing, shipment,
account structure, discount, and returns of materials provided on approval. Part II outlines the technical support
provided by YBP. Part III describes the instructions for coverage of specific continuation titles on the plan, the
Approval Plan Publisher Profile or “press list,” the plan's subject parameters, and the non-subject qualifiers which
Both the Library and YBP recognize that changes to these guidelines will likely be necessary as the program evolves
over time. Any change in substance will be recorded in a written communication from YBP to the Library.

E: Returns:
Under the provisions of this Approval Plan, YBP will ship to the Library books selected according to the press,

deemed inappropriate to the Library's collection for reasons of content, subject, style, format, quality, etc.

Customer Service Representative within 30 days of the invoice date.
Returns must be shipped via UPS or insured mail.
F: Management Reports
Collection Management Reports can be submitted by the library via GOBI®, YBP’s on-line collection management
tool. Various report templates can provide expenditure reports according to the library’s specifications, as well as
open order reports and other approval plan support materials such as press lists, and standing order instructions.
II. TECHNICAL SERVICE SPECIFICATIONS
A: GOBI®
Page 2
YBP’s GOBI® (Global Online Bibliographic Information) service is available to the Library via the World Wide
Web. GOBI® provides a sophisticated acquisitions and collection development support system, with access to
querying, selection, ordering and reporting functions across YBP’s entire database of titles. The Library should
contact their bibliographer-liaison to register for GOBI® access.
B: Bibliographic, Cataloging, & Processing Services
The Library has contracted with YBP for the range of bibliographic, cataloging, and/or processing services specified
in the Library’s YBP Technical Services Profile. The Technical Services Profile, in conjunction with the
Memorandum of Agreement, details the specific services to be provided and the responsibilities of each partner.
Success in the outsourcing of acquisitions and technical services requires ongoing consultation and a mutual
commitment to working together to address issues and concerns as they arise.
III. APPROVAL PLAN SPECIFICATIONS
A: Continuations:
The Library Series Report (available via GOBI® or upon request from your bibliographer-liaison) reflects the
Library’s instructions to YBP for handling specific continuation titles on the approval plan. These title-specific
instructions override all other profile elements.
“Book” indicates that all volumes of the continuation title will be supplied on the approval plan. “Slip” indicates that
notification slips will be sent. “Exclude” indicates that all volumes of the continuation title will be excluded from
coverage on the approval plan.
B: Publishers:
The plan will include all university press, trade, scholarly and professional publishers named on the Library’s
Approval Plan Publisher Profile, or press list. The Library is only interested in Canadian publishers. As new
Canadian imprints are added to YBP's approval publisher list, they will be set for Book coverage. Other imprints will
be excluded.
The subject and non-subject parameters below apply to all publishers covered by this Approval Plan.
C: Subject Parameters:
The following subject parameters describe the subject focus of the plan. Books will be shipped automatically in
subjects preceded by a "B". Notification slips will be sent in lieu of a book for all subjects preceded by an "S".
Nothing will be shipped for all subjects preceded by an "X", except as indicated in the notes. Exceptions and
clarifications to the general instruction for a subject are noted beneath the subject.
Key Reviews: The library has requested coverage of several key review sources. The specifics of this coverage can
be found at the end of this profile.
Adult Awards: The library has requested coverage of several awards. The specifics of this coverage can be found at
the end of this profile.

CONTENT LEVEL DEFINITIONS
General-Academic (GEN-AC):
This category is applied to works of scholarship which assume no prior knowledge
of a topic. Accessible to any college or university student, these are often studies
of broad subject areas or of topics of high current interest. Some titles not strictly
academic in nature, such as fiction and poetry of literary quality, and quality works
of journalism or other non-fiction, also would be placed here. All GeneralAcademic titles would be appropriate for undergraduate study.
Advanced -Academic (ADV-AC):
This level applies to all works of scholarship treating narrowly defined or difficult
topics, but generally accessible to advanced students or faculty within a discipline
or to those who may be reading in a specialty other than their own. Some
Advanced-Academic titles also are appropriate for use by upper-level
undergraduates.
Professional (PROF):
This level applies to works of extreme technical difficulty or treating such esoteric
subjects as to interest only well-trained specialists in the field. Practical
guidebooks written for working professionals in fields such as Education,
Business, Law, Medicine, Nursing, or Social Work, even when not highly
technical, also would fall into this category.
Popular (POP):
Books rated at this level are primarily intended for retail sale to a very broad
readership beyond colleges and universities. The Popular level would include
genre fiction such as mysteries and science fiction; inspirational poetry or
spirituality; cookbooks; most travel guides; many biographies of athletes, movie
stars, and other entertainment figures; and materials intended for casual reading or
individual self-help or instruction, as opposed to academic or professional study.
Juvenile (JUV):
This category applies to books intended to be read by children. The YBP
approval plan program treats only those children’s titles published by university
presses. We do not treat the thousands of children’s titles released by trade
publishers
