Scope: The General Withdrawals report is the summary of a batch-job that checks for withdrawn items (identified by the “w” in the subfield b of the 948 field).  The report is run on a monthly basis for annual statistical record-keeping purposes, and lists the number of library items withdrawn, along with the collections they were withdrawn from.
