Collection Development Services

This unit is responsible for collection development of monographs, audiovisual materials, and electronic resources. The department works closely with faculty and library liaisons to select appropriate materials to support the curriculum and research needs of our faculty and students. The department orders, receives, and manages the budget for these materials. The department also coordinates evaluation of gifts for possible addition to the library's collection.

BSC faculty, staff and students may suggest specific books or audiovisual materials for library purchase via our online Library Material Request Form. For details on our selection criteria, please see the Selection Policy for Books and Visual Materials.

Please call (508) 531-2035 for further information.
