Collection Development and Acquisitions Department Department Overview The Collection Development and Acquisitions Department coordinates the efforts of the liaisons (the librarian liaisons to academic departments and programs) and the faculty, who work together to build the library's print, media, and electronic collections. The department oversees the building of a balanced collection that is responsive to university needs. Specifically, staff in this department order and receive print monographs and musical scores; standing orders; media; and most of the electronic resources for the library. Collection evaluations to accompany academic departments' 10-year self-studies are also supported by this department. All current members of the SU community may suggest new titles for the collection. The library's Collection Development Policy outlines what the library does and does not add to its collections. We invite you to stop by the department during our open hours, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.     Dana Hendrix, Head, Collection Development and Acquisition (512) 863-1241     Jeanette Holliday, Acquisitions Assistant (512) 863-1557     Doreen Prevots, Acquisitions Clerk (512) 863-1636 Links for SU Faculty     NEW!  Library Selection Links for SU Faculty     Acquisitions Procedures for Faculty     Collection Development Policy     Online Book Request Form (Current SU community only) 2009-10 Liaison Directory Natural Sciences Division Division members: Amy Anderson, Hong Yu      Biology Amy Anderson 863-1639      Chemistry Amy Anderson 863-1639      Kinesiology Amy Anderson 863-1639      Math/Computer Science Amy Anderson 863-1639      Physics Hong Yu 863-1551 Social Sciences Division Division members: Kathryn Stallard, Joan Parks, Theresa Zelasko      Communication Lynne Brody 863-1214      Economics/Business Theresa Zelasko 863-1558      Education/Curriculum Theresa Zelasko 863-1558      Political Science Kathryn Stallard 863-1221      Psychology Joan Parks 863-1311      Sociology/Anthropology Joan Parks 863-1311 Humanities Division Division members: Carol Fonken      Classics Kathryn Stallard 863-1221      English Carol Fonken 863-1550      History Carol Fonken 863-1550      MLL: Chinese Hong Yu 863-1551      MLL: French Carol Fonken 863-1550      MLL: Spanish, German Dana Hendrix 863-1241      Religion/Philosophy Dana Hendrix 863-1241 School of Fine Arts Division members: Lynne Brody, Dana Hendrix      Art and Art History Dana Hendrix 863-1241      Music Dana Hendrix 863-1241      Theatre Lynne Brody 863-1214 Interdisciplinary Programs      Animal Behavior Amy Anderson 863-1639      Environmental Studies Kathryn Stallard 863-1221      Feminist Studies Dana Hendrix 863-1241      International Studies Hong Yu 863-1551      Latin American Studies Lynne Brody 863-1214 Other      First Year Symposium All librarians      Gifts Kathryn Stallard 863-1221      Dana Hendrix 863-1241      Leased Books/Audiobooks Dana Hendrix 863-1241      Media Dana Hendrix 863-1241      Periodicals Amy Anderson 863-1639      Reference Joan Parks 863-1311      Replacements Dana Hendrix 863-1241      Retrospective Dana Hendrix 863-1241      Special Collections Kathryn Stallard 863-1221      Student Requests Dana Hendrix 863-1241      Texana Kathryn Stallard 863-1221 Note: Print and electronic periodical titles are selected and acquired by the Periodical Services Department.
