Re: [ALCTS-acqnet] Fw: [ALCTScentral] Acquisition program for faculty-authored books

I can't offer any advice on this topic, but I am very interested in what you learn from asking these questions. I am working with our provost to set up something very similar to what you want to do. If you received any responses off-list, I hope that you will summarize them for us. The key for college, I think, will be devising a system that makes it easy for faculty members, including adjuncts, to notify the library about their publications.


Thanks,

Subject: [ALCTS-acqnet] Fw: [ALCTScentral] Acquisition program for faculty-authored books

Dear colleagues,



UConn Library is planning a program to start systematically acquiring UConn faculty-published books (monographs) for inclusion in our collections. Does your library run such a program? How is it scoped, e.g., do you buy books where your faculty contributed only a chapter? How do you obtain lists of faculty-authored works? Any tech specs would be very helpful, if you’re willing to share.



Regards,
