<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Everyone,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am looking into completing a risk assessment for our institution. I am really interested in learning where the biggest risks to the collections are and hopefully using this information to prioritise funding.  <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have been reading about “The ABC Method” by Michalski. I wondered if anyone had any experience using it and what problems they faced? I am always curious how these models translate into Natural Science collections and changes to the methodologies
 people have to make.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Also, I am interested in hearing suggestion of any other models people may have tried or heard about.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Waller’s CPRAM model appears very good but it will be too intensive for me to undertake but if anyone knew of any other risk assessment methodologies that have successfully be used in Natural Science collections I would be really excited
 to hear about them.<o:p></o:p></p>
