Fundamentals of Acquisitions 
<http://www.ala.org/ala/mgrps/divs/alcts/confevents/upcoming/webcourse/foa/index.cfm>
The Fundamentals of Acquisitions (FOA) web course focuses on the basics

management of library collections budgets, and relationships among 
acquisitions librarians, library booksellers, subscription agents, and 
publishers. In this course, you will receive a broad overview of the 
operations involved in acquiring materials after the selection decision 
is made. Note that in FOA, we distinguish between collection 
development, which involves the selection of materials for the library; 
and acquisitions, which orders, receives, and pays for those materials.

Hi Everyone,



Can you help distribute this information to the appropriate lists? 
Registration for the February courses is low. There is still time for 
people to register.



You can put the "Please excuse cross-posting of these continuing 
education opportunities" line in place of Please distribute widely, if 
you'd like.



I will post this to ALCTS Community in Connect now.



Thanks,

Julie
