Generally, these items are final stage publications rather than working papers or drafts. Emphasis is on current, comprehensive information from authoritative sources. These web sites are not owned by the Information Center, but they represent significant resources for users. Web sites selected for inclusion are on the topic of aging, authoritative and content-rich. Recommended materials will be evaluated based on this collection policy.
Users are also welcome to donate aging-related materials to the collection.
Donated materials will also be evaluated based on this policy before they are added to the collection. Once donated, materials become the property of the Information Center. Weeding Weeding is the systematic evaluation of a collection to withdraw materials that are no longer useful. Generally, the same criteria apply to weeding as are used in the selection of new materials. Materials may be withdrawn if they are superceded editions, duplicate copies of seldom-used titles, or are no longer within the scope of the collection.
