Acquisitions/Weeding

The curriculum library depends on Education faculty for selecting and maintaining material in the collection. Library staff will assist in these efforts. Criteria for selection of materials are at the discretion of Education faculty.

Scholarly education books are located in the main collection. Library staff evaluates purchased and donated material to determine placement in the main or curriculum collection.

Library staff will withdraw material in poor physical condition, superseded, or duplicate information.
