[CASL-L] Holdings Question

[Vaghini, T]

As far as I know there is a recommended number of titles per student but I
don't think there is a mandated requirement. That being said, considering
the overwhelming and vast expanse of digital content and access, # of books
per student is quickly becoming an obsolete statistic in my view. I am for
25 per student. I think that was the 'magic number.'

Anyone else?
