Don't know whether this information has already been offered. Two sources
our library frequently refers to when faced with this question:
1. Insurance manual for librariesby Gerald E. Myers. ALA 1977. (there may
well be a later ed.?)
2. 66 LLJ 241 (1973)
3. Legal Research & Law Library Management. Rev. ed. 2004. chapter 34A
"Insuring Against Library Disasters".
Hope this helps.

Subject: RE: Collection evaluation for insurance purposes - help!!
I am also very interested to know to any suggestion on this because I am
also in the middle of formulating the appropriate value of our library
collection for insurance purposes. Any suggestions/solutions are very much
appreciated.
Thanks.

Subject: Collection evaluation for insurance purposes - help!!
This morning I was asked to come up with a figure for the value of
our collection for insurance purposes (by tomorrow of course) I have
done a very brief literature search, looked at the law lib archives
for the past two years, and am going to spend some time with Ken
Svengalis's book Legal Info…Buyers Guide…
I feel like I saw something on Law lib - but it might have been a
long time ago.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to put a value on a law
library collection (quickly) I will have an opportunity to change
this figure later (then I'll have some time to think!)
thanks
