The tricky part of this one is the last element, finding items that were not checked out in the past 10 years, because you need to work with data which may or may not have been migrated from your old system. Once you know where that is and what format it's in, you need to look for items that have 0 checkouts on Evergreen and whose last checkin date from your old system was less than 2014-12-04 (which may not be the actual date format) making sure that the items which were never checked in (because they were never checked out) are included.

You also need to include the create or active date from your old system, because you can't blame an item for not circulating before it was added to the collection. In other words, you don't want to include things that were added in 2013 that haven't circulated yet.

The actual query depends on knowing what data you migrated, what format it's in and where it is. These weeding reports that depend on working with data from two different systems can be tricky, but as long as you have that data from your old system, you ought to be able to get the information you need.

        Can anyone share a report that lets us limit by Books in the
        Stacks, Call Number range (BS001 to BS100), Checked out zero
        times, over the last 10 years.

        Thanks!
