Subject Parameters & Collection Levels
Primary LC Classes HA-HC; HD 1-7254; HD 7257-9999 Related LC Classes All others areas of class H and relevant areas of class K dealing with economics regulation Chronological Coverage Materials which are current in nature will be given primary emphasis; however, the complete collections of the works of more important writers and selections from the works of secondary writers will be purchased regardless of date. Geographical Coverage The materials collected will emphasize basically the economic systems and economic methodology of the United States. Secondary emphasis will be placed on obtaining materials, as required by classroom faculty, from the countries of the European Union, the countries of the Middle East, China, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, the former Crown Colony of Hong Kong, Australia, New Zealand, Mexico, and the “ABC” countries of Latin America. Other Resources The Library is a selective member of the Federal Depository Library Program. Economics materials, such as those published by the Department of Commerce, Department of the Treasury, the Federal Reserve and 55 other Federal departments or agencies, will be collected. Languages Materials will be collected in English since this is the language stress by the CBE faculty and students in the classroom. The University Library will collect, in a less vigorous manner, materials written in Arabic, Chinese, Farsi, French, German, Japanese, Korean, and Spanish. The sole criterion for selecting materials in any of the aforementioned languages will be that they be used by the faculty for their classroom teaching purposes at the undergraduate or graduate level.
