The Rod Library at the University of Northern Iowa is working on
creating a collection development policy for test preparation study
guides. The policy will cover study guides for the various academic
entrance exams (GRE, MCAT, etc.), study guides for professional
licensing exams (CPA, etc.), and possibly certification exams for
various computer software, network, and programming products. We are
interested in gathering information on how other libraries have dealt
with selecting and maintaining these. Has anyone else out there created
a policy specifically for these types of materials? Would you be willing
to let us look at your policy? If so, please contact me off the list.

Thanks for your consideration and assistance.
