Deacquisitioning official state reporters

Greeting. This is a survey question for academic law libraries.

New England School of Law Library is snugly nestled into the
theater district of beautiful downtown Boston. We are
reviewing our collection in light of:

(1) finite amount of space (see above);

(2) revised ABA Library Standards and Interpretations

(3) 15th edition of Bluebook which no longer requires
parallel citations except when citing a case to a court in
that state; and

(4) cost considerations.

We would be very interested to learn if, due to the above or
other considerations, any of you have eliminated any sets of
state official reports from your collection. If so, which did
you remove?

If you would reply to me, I will summarize to the list. Thank
you so much for taking the time to reply.
