| SELECTION
AND ORDERING OF LEARNING MATERIALS |
| • |
Library materials are ordered
annually in Fall semester. |
| • |
Faculty members participate in
the selection of instructional materials
(books, magazines, DVDs, CD-ROMs,
etc) for the library collection. |

Materials may be requested by
emailing or by sending a publisher’s
brochure or catalog to the Library
Director. |

When new books & other materials
are ready, instructors will be notified
