The mission of the Consortium Library is to provide and maintain collections and resources that support the educational and research programs of the University of Alaska Anchorage and Alaska Pacific University.
A collection development policy serves as a communication, planning, and implementation tool. It seeks to translate the Library’s mission into information materials for library users. Ideally, it provides a framework within which collection development and management, maintenance and analysis, resource sharing, and collaboration and cooperation can be carried out.
The policy is intended to define, in terms standardized throughout the international academic library community, the collection aims of the Consortium Library. It should inform the broader university community about the scope and nature of the existing collections. Finally, it should facilitate further cooperation with other libraries in the acquisition of scholarly materials, by enabling the Consortium Library to define its commitments.
For more information, see the full text of the Collection Development Policy.
Questions about this policy should be directed to Jodee Kuden, Head of Collection Development, UAA/APU Consortium Library, 3211 Providence Dr., Anchorage, AK 99508 (email jlkuden@alaska.edu, phone 907-786-1875).
