Does anyone know of a resource that gathers the various *degree* accreditation
requirements that are specific to library resources? I'd like to know which
accrediting bodies list titles to which a library must subscribe.

One that I've found is the American Chemical Society's Guidelines and
Evaluation Procedures for Bachelors Degree Programs which states:

"An approved program must provide immediate institutional access to no fewer
than 14 current and archival, peer-reviewed journals whose subject matter
spans the chemical sciences. At least three of the journals must have a
general focus (for example, Science, JACS, Angewandte Chemie International
Edition, Chemistry – A European Journal, Chemical Communications, etc.), and
at least one must come from each area of analytical chemistry, biochemistry,
inorganic chemistry, organic chemistry, physical chemistry, and chemistry
education."

Has anyone else come across language that is this specific?
