DescriptionThe FLorida Academic REpository (FLARE) is the statewide shared collection of low use print materials from academic libraries in Florida. FLARE is administratively hosted by the University of Florida and is currently held and managed out of two library facilities: The UF Interim Library Facility (ILF), which also houses Digital Production Services and Conservation, and the UF Auxiliary Library Facility (ALF), which also houses UF Storage and the Government Documents Cataloging Unit. Both are off campus facilities located near the airport in Gainesville Florida.
