Collection Development works with teaching faculty and liaison librarians to identify and select information resources made available through the UMass Amherst Libraries. We manage the acquisitions budget, allocating funds for materials held and accessed by the Libraries. We maintain partnerships with various library organizations in order to negotiate for reduced prices and to offer more material to our users. We develop policies to guide decisions regarding the appropriate mix of locally held formats and remote access.
