[CASL-L] So many books...so little time

[Fitzgerald, Joy]

The GOOGLE DOCS FORM that I use for BOOK and MEDIA Requests was adapted from a BOOK REQUEST FORM someone shared with me several years ago... I changed it this past spring to a MEDIA Request Form to cover any type of Media or Ebook.

Here is a link to a copy I just created. You can save it and made your own from it.

Let me know if you have trouble seeing it or accessing it.   I can always SHARE individually to email addresses.

I also have created a GOOGLE DOC FORM that is for BOOK RECOMMENDATIONS or REQUESTS and shared it with Students and Staff. I asked staff if they came across a title to please submit it on the form... then I can pull out a spread sheet from the results of the form submissions and create a book order from those new titles (after I double check to see if we already own them).

Hi everyone,

I was hoping people could share the process they use for collection development. How do you chose what books to order? Do you have a system in place? What reviewing materials do you find most useful? Do you use Junior Library Guild? Do you use the Wilson Core Collection? Thanks!
