[Nhcoll-l] Definition of "Backlog"

[Sarah K. Huber]

I realize that this is a very nebulous area and that there is no "right" definition, but I am curious how your institution defines the backlog - specifically as it pertains to uncatalogued material. I have been asked to provide an estimate of our uncatalogued backlog, and I'm getting into the weeds of how to define our backlog.

Thank you,
Sarah
