When budgetary issues limit the library’s ability to pursue a coordinated and equitable acquisitions policy, the Subject Librarians priorities are to:

• support existing programs, courses, and curriculum
• support new programs, courses, and curriculum
• fill faculty and student requests
• fill gaps in the overall collection coverage
• have in-depth coverage of artists and designers who are BIPOC, LGBT, and from other underrepresented populations
• have in-depth coverage of non-Western histories and cultural production.
• replace old, lost, damaged, or unusable materials when patron reimbursement has not been made.
