Collection Development

The Katz Library collects materials in a variety of formats including books, periodicals, government documents, videos, sound recordings, microfilm, and online indexes and databases. The library also houses the Terry Plunkett Collection of Contemporary Maine Writers and is a participant in the Maine Census Data Center Program.

Materials are acquired that support the academic curriculum of the University. Development of the library collection is a collaborative project involving librarians and faculty. Each academic program is assigned a librarian who serves as a liaison for communication between the program and the library. Liaisons are responsible for overseeing the development of the collection in their subject areas. Suggestions for book orders and other materials are welcome, although budget considerations may mean that not all titles can be purchased.
