The service goals of the College Libraries encompass both the needs of the campus academic community and those of the wider regional and scholarly community. The collection development guidelines, however, are focused primarily on the needs of the campus academic community. The collection development goal of the College Libraries is to find recorded information pertinent to existing research, instructional, and institutional programs, and to purchase and preserve selected resources at levels proper to the scope and depth of those programs. The purpose of resources selection at the Seminole State College Libraries is to provide the right information for the right reader at the right time. These collection development guidelines are intended to be flexible enough to reflect changes and trends in the College’s academic programs.
