Subject: Suggestions on selecting an opening day collection for a 
branch community college library?

From:  Sue Adler, Modesto Junior College Library

Modesto Junior College will be opening a small branch library on our west
campus in about a year.  We'll have about $10,000 to spend on books for the
opening day collection.  I'm a new collection development librarian. Does
anyone have suggestions on how to go about selecting an opening day
collection?   I'd appreciate any ideas.

Thanks!
