Collection Development Policy Statements |
DESCRIPTION: |
"This page introduces a series of documents that
describes the dynamic state of library collections at Cornell University. Each statement
was written by one of the thirty bibliographers, curators, and selectors responsible for
managing a subject or area and reflects that librarian's view of constituencies,
collection strengths, formats and other issues. The documents are organized here by four
headings, reflecting the groups that coordinate collection development in the
library." Very nice place for collection development policies. Covers many subject
areas. |
