Abstract | An ongoing project at Mercer University's Regional Academic Center Libraries illustrates how utilizing established assessment guidelines, stakeholder input, and a clear understanding of audience and curriculum needs may all be used to optimize a collection. Academic branch libraries often have clear collection development limitations in terms of space and funding along with a specialized audience to serve. Quantitative and qualitative means for assessing branch library collections are employed to create a highly relevant and usable collection while maximizing available funding. Other distance education librarians involved in collection development for geographically distant locations may benefit from use of these methods. (As Provided). |
