The Library works with faculty members to build a core collection of resource materials for each program.

October 1st is the annual deadline for submitting requests for new purchases.

Questions? Ask Kim LaPlante at 920-498-5487.

Faculty throughout the College share funds for reference/media materials.

All reoccurring requests (subscriptions, standing orders, renewals) are reviewed by the deans in July and are funded before other requests.

Each Fall, faculty are given a deadline to submit additional order requests to the Library Manager.

If the requests exceed the budget, they are prioritized by the deans and then purchased by the Library Manager.

However, if the budget is not exceeded, remaining funds are used for purchasing instructor requests/recommendations after the deadline on a first-come first-served basis.

No forms necessary!

Instead, faculty should send all of the item, vendor, and ordering information they have to Kim LaPlante. Kim accepts requests in any form, but prefers printouts from Amazon.com or other web sites, publisher's catalogs with items circled and prioritized, or emails.

Instructors should also add the following information:

1. Name of instructor making the request
2. Number of copies needed (remember to include other campuses teaching the same course)
3. Any reoccurring expense (does it need to be renewed or updated each year?)

Instructors will receive an email notice when the materials arrive.
