<div dir="ltr">We are working on a new collection development policy at the College of the Holy Cross Libraries, too. Although this is a work in progress, the group has decided to integrate electronic resources (ie. databases, ejournals, ebooks, streaming media, statistics, etc) into the policy and not have a separate section for electronic. So far, although we are far from finished, we have placed like items together. For example. Serials has its own section and it breaks down into print and electronic, type of serial, etc. This allows us to address different issues according to format including funding and physical space. This system is a bit harder for "archival" collections or mixed collection packages that include many different things and could be a purchase or a annual subscription. Some of this may be solved by writing to our audience: faculty and non-library administration. We need to make the language simple and in terms a non-library person can understand. In any case, I think that having electronic resources integrated into your collection development policy is something you might want to try.<div><br></div><div>When we have something finalized, our collection development policy will be posted online. I am sorry we don't have anything for you now...</div><div><br></div><div>Best,</div><div><br></div><div>Judith</div><div><br></div><div>
