UNIVERSITY LIBRARY ANNUAL REPORT
20 14-2015
Donald R. Smith
Dean of the Library
February 18,2016
The academic year of 2014-2015 was just like every other year for the last several years: funding only
to acquire a limited number of journals, relying on Student Assessment funds and Digital Library
Funds to pay for serials and databases outside of LOUIS, and continuing to maintain library staffing
with our reduced numbers.
The coming year will follow this pattern but in addition to preparing the collection to become largely
digital, the planning for the renovation of the library building continues. The librarians have been
busily reviewing the collections and a major portion has been withdrawn. Our statistics bear
witness to this.
