Dear Colleagues,

The Best Practices Subcommittee of the Acquisitions & Appraisal Section has put together a short survey to gather information about current institutional policies for acquisitions and collection development. This survey is part of a larger initiative to compile examples of existing policies from various archives and will be used to create a resource for acquisitions policy writing.

You can share your thoughts and answers by completing the survey here:

It should take only 5-10 minutes and will be posted until December 15th.

More information about the Best Practices Subcommittee and the project is explained on the A&A Section’s Assigning Value blog: https://appraisalsaa.wordpress.com/2016/11/09/collection-development-policy-work-and-how-you-can-help/

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the subcommittee’s co-chairs, who are also members of the Acquisitions & Appraisal Section’s Steering Committee:  Marcella Huggard, mdwiget@gmail.com and Julie May, julie.ilene.may@gmail.com.

Thank you,

The Best Practices Subcommittee
