Student Collection Recommendations

There are two ways to recommend the purchase of library materials:

or

Request a yellow Library Materials Recommendation Form from the Library Office

What do YOU think the library should add to its collection?

The Library strives to provide a quality collection of materials to support undergraduate instruction and research, and, to a more limited extent, faculty research needs as well as representations of popular culture. We can't do it alone, though. That's where you as a student come in.

Let us know what's on your wish list. We can't make any promise, but we would really like to hear from you. Fill out the online form above or ask for a Recommendation Form form from the library office. Maybe there's a CD you think we just have to have. Perhaps you just read a book for class or for pleasure that really moved you. Do you have a favorite movie and want Briggs Library to include it in the collection? Then make a recommendation!

Status of orders:

After a recommendation is accepted for purchase the item is ordered. It will appear in SUMMON with an "On Order" status until processing has been completed and it is available for check-out. Recent acquisitions are often placed in the "New Arrivals" display near the front door of the library and are available for anyone who would like to check them out.
