Collection Management
Vassar's Collection Management program is designed to assist faculty, librarians, students, and donors in the decision-making processes that comprise the cooperative building of the Vassar Libraries collections. Listed below are policies, guidelines, and other materials that have been collected to provide a framework for maintaining the breadth, depth, continuity, flexibility, and excellence of the library collections.
