The focus of the roundtable will be collection development in the face of budget reductions—strategies for thoughtful and conscientious collection development. We will be joined by Amanda Runyon & Leslie Street. Amanda’s article, The Effect of Economics and Electronic Resources on the Traditional Law Library Print Collection was just published in the Spring 2009 Law Library Journal. She and Leslie are also currently collaborating on additional research in collection development strategies for cuts. They’ll talk a little about their findings at the beginning of the roundtable and then we’ll open the floor for a discussion of the strategies that folks are employing on an everyday basis in the context of academic law library collection development.

Speaker(s):
Amanda Runyon, Tarlton Law Library, University of Texas School of Law
Leslie Street, Georgetown Law Library
