Abstract

Kent Library at Southeast Missouri State University is one of the only academic libraries in the United States to have a faculty-selected main collection. Three newly hired employees to the library updated a 28-year-old collection development policy and facilitated the reclassification of a half-million-item collection from the Dewey Decimal to the Library of Congress (LC) classification system. To complete these projects, the strengths and challenges of a faculty-selected collection were balanced through implementing research findings, collaborating, communicating, and being flexible.

逾期：针对教师选择的馆藏进行馆藏开发和取消选择项目

摘要

东南密苏里州立大学的肯特图书馆是美国仅有的拥有教师精选主要馆藏的学术图书馆之一。图书馆的三名新聘员工更新了一项已有 28 年历史的馆藏发展政策，并促进了 50 万件馆藏从杜威十进制到国会图书馆 (LC) 分类系统的重新分类。为了完成这些项目，教师选择的馆藏的优势和挑战通过实施研究成果、合作、交流和灵活来平衡。
