CODES Hot Topics Discussion Group
Saturday - January 21, 2012
10:30 to noon
Location: DCC A302
The CODES Hot Topics Discussion Group is focusing on collection
assessment. While assessing library services and resources has been an
important concern for many years, current economic realities and
serious interest in "return on investment" have brought it to the
forefront in all kind of libraries. Participants will exchange
information on how their institutions are implementing collection
assessment activities, the methodologies they are using, and the
outcomes that result. What works and what does not work? How does
assessment affect collection development decisions, budgeting, and
cooperative arrangements with other libraries?
Please join us for a lively and thought-provoking discussion on this
very hot collection development topic. All conference registrants are
welcome to come.
