Give Them What They Want: Reader-Focused Collection Development

Program

Tuesday, September 25, 2018 -

2:00pm to 4:00pm

Where: 

CPL Archer Heights Branch

Readers are flocking to library's leisure collections. To make smart collection choices, we must look further than circulation statistics and learn what our entire community desires. Our presenters are using methods suitable at libraries of any size to incorporate patron wishes into collection development, making readers integral to the whole process.

From complex patron-driven acquisitions plans at large library systems, to bite-size surveys at the smallest libraries, to prioritizing patron requests, to canny materials displays, all of these librarians are finding innovative ways to put what readers want front and center, and to ferret out even the hardest-to-discover reading desires.
