About Collection Development

Collection Development plans the purchase of materials in all formats within the limits of the university's fiscal resources to meet the instructional, scholarly, and research needs of Florida Atlantic University faculty, staff, and students. The Collection Development Department staff collaborate with faculty to utilize allocated funds in a manner consistent with departmental and programmatic priorities and the Libraries' written collection development policy.

For further information about Collection Development services, please contact Maris Hayashi, Associate University Librarian, Collection Development.
