In an effort to update the collection, we encourage you to reach out to the librarian in your subject area with suggestions for purchases for the print collection. Please keep in mind that our funding primarily covers supplemental materials that support our curriculum and research needs of students, rather than textbook purchases. Your input and suggestions are invaluable in ensuring that our library resources remain relevant and beneficial to the academic community.
