Initiative Title | Electronic Collection Development to support Curricular changes |
Submitted in Previous Year(s) | No |
Critical Information, Notes, Justification, Rationale | To support students enrolled in programs that are located at more than one campus or satellite center, and to support new programs, the library seeks additional funding within subscription accounts to expand e-resources. An analysis of the past 3 years of inter-library loan requests has identified a collection development gap and need to add materials in the nursing and allied health areas. |
Consequences of this initiative not being funded | To support new programs and existing programs, materials must be purchased. While we can continue with our current path-swapping out one item for another-this is not a sustainable model, as it creates broader issues affecting the integrity of the library collection. |
Department Goals | 1. The library resources shall support the curricula of the College, provide the basis for a well-rounded liberal education, and meet the research needs of the college community. |

Locations | Main Campus, Newburgh Campus, Other Instructional Site |
