Section 1. Selection

Selection is the process of deciding which materials
should be added to a library collection. Selection of new
materials is a continuous process requiring evaluation of
both the current collection and the materials being
considered for acquisition. Lists of available titles of books
and serials from brochures/catalog given by dealers are sent
to the deans of the different colleges for recommendation.
List of recommended books is forwarded to the dealers so
that the books will be delivered for examination. List of
recommended serial titles is subscribed as budget permits.
Requesting parties are notified of the delivery of requested
materials in the Technical Services Section of the library.
Notice on the allotted period for the examination of the items
to be considered for acquisition is also given.
