collection development

Our Purpose

The Collection Development Department of the UNH Library in conjunction with UNH faculty and other members of the university community determines which books, periodicals, videos, microforms, and electronic materials (including indexes and databases) will be acquired by the Library and from which funds. Orders are then submitted to the acquisitions unit where they are processed. The Collection Development Department also determines the suitability of gifts for the collection. Other related functions include providing information on the collections, formulating general collection development policies, overseeing the library materials budget, working with accreditation teams, managing the approval plan, and providing assistance to new faculty and programs.

Location

We are located on Floor 1, Room 131 in Dimond library.

UNH faculty are welcome to visit our offices to review approval books or to consult with the Collection Development Librarian.
