Report of the Task Force on Collection Policies and Assessments.
Dawson, Deborah; And Others
Task force actions and data created from its experience are summarized in this report of the Task Force on Collection Development Policies and Assessments, whose major objectives were to create (1) models of collection development policies and collection assessments that could guide subject specialist/liaisons planning to build the library collection at the University of Wyoming Library, and (2) a schedule for writing collection development policies and conducting assessments. A collection development policy model is included along with collection development policies for specific library collections, i.e., economics, geology, theater and dance, and the film library. A library collection assessment plan model which outlines elements to be included or answered in each subject assessment proposal, a schedule for collection development planning of assessment workload, recommendations on collection development policies and collection assessments, and the formal charge of the task force are also included.
