Emphasis is on English language materials.
Important materials in Japanese, German, Chinese, and other languages are acquired when there is no English equivalent. A substantial core collection has been acquired and will be maintained. Henceforth, primarily recent publications will be purchased. Retrospective acquisition of serials to meet new program needs will be extremely selective and usually limited to the past five years. Document delivery will be used instead to meet these needs whenever feasible.
