About Collection Development
The
selection of materials to meet current and future needs of Western Kentucky
University's faculty, staff, and students as well as the local citizenry
is a critical service element in the Libraries'
mission and is the very core of collection development. The specific
curricular and disciplinary priorities for selecting and acquiring materials
are set forth in Western Kentucky University
Libraries Collection Development Statement that was adopted
in Fall 1992.
The Collection Development Program is coordinated by Jack Montgomery, Collection Services Coordinator.
Departmental library representatives and liaison librarians have copies of the collection development statement. It is available for perusal in the Reference Center of the library as well.
The Library Resources Form must be included in all new course proposals. The Academic Council approved the suggested revisions of the form at their November 1996 meeting. Print a copy of the new form from here.
