I'm looking for ways libraries have made the curriculum to collection 
connection. For example, have subject librarians, bibliographers, 
collection development officers, or others created a template or form that 
is included in the paperwork for new program proposals?

My institution is now adding PhD programs in Education, and we know that we 
need books and databases. Rather than the library trying to catch up once 
the program has been announced, we’d rather know about it before it is 
approved and/or alert faculty/administrators to the library needs 
associated with new programs.

Any templates, forms, or ideas of what has (or what has not…) worked for 
you in your libraries would be great!

thanks!
Theresa
