The Libraries have adopted this policy to reduce confusion and inaccuracies within the Libraries\u2019 online catalog and to maintain the Libraries\u2019 commitment to fiscal responsibility and the efficient use of staff time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Scope<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This policy applies to collections of books, media, scores and other similar materials housed outside of the Libraries on the St Olaf campus and not controlled directly by the Libraries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Policy<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While the Libraries recognize that many &#8220;library like&#8221; collections exist on campus, we are unable to provide support for acquiring, cataloging, processing or indexing collections that are not directly owned by or housed in the St Olaf Libraries. Similarly, we do not include non-Library collections within our online catalog or other discovery systems in order to limit confusion for our users and prevent unsustainable system complexities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are always happy to take suggestions of materials to add to our own collections, and we encourage St Olaf departments, offices or student groups to send any lists of suggested resources to&nbsp;<a href=\"mailto:libraryacquisitions@stolaf.edu\">libraryacquisitions@stolaf.edu<\/a>. If materials are in scope of our collecting parameters and budget, we can often purchase and add them to our library collections. This can provide the St Olaf community with access to important resources, while at the same time reducing duplication of effort by non-library staff managing local &#8220;library like&#8221; collections.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Effective Date:&nbsp;March 2018Issuing Authority:&nbsp;St Olaf LibraryProgram Coordinators:&nbsp;CIOLast Updated:&nbsp;March 2018 Purpose of Policy This policy addresses the St Olaf College Libraries\u2019 responsibility to non-library campus collections such as those held by [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9083,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-180","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/library\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/180","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/library\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/library\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/library\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9083"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/library\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=180"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/library\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/180\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":181,"href":"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/library\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/180\/revisions\/181"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/library\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=180"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
