contents An Examination and Review of the Collection Development Policies and Procedures of the Mesa College Library. Connaway, Lynn Silipigni College Libraries Graphs Higher Education Library Acquisition Library Circulation Library Collection Development Library Collections Library Material Selection Library Standards Measurement Techniques Policy State Legislation Tables (Data) Use Studies This report on a study of the acquisition policies and procedures of the Mesa College Library (Grand Junction, Colorado) begins by discussing the techniques used for data collection, including: (1) measurement of shelflist cards; (2) calculation of average imprint date, accession date, number of circulations, price, and year of latest circulation; (3) circulation and interlibrary loan statistics; (4) reference surveys; and (5) patron questionnaires. Supply and demand proportions are then analyzed for both 207 and 21 Library of Congress divisions, and the correlation between demand percentages is discussed. Circulations by requester type and source are also analyzed. The collection development guidelines of the Colorado Commission of Higher Education (CCHE) and the American Library Association Standards for College Libraries are compared to the library's budget and collection. The National Shelflist Count and the Higher Education General Information System quantitative assessments, as well as CCHE's use of these formulas, are explained. Bibliographic selection tools are discussed, and the library's holdings are compared to the titles listed in "Books for College Libraries." The role and mission of Mesa College and its library are reviewed and recommendations regarding CCHE standards and long and short-range goals are offered. Appendixes include data collection forms, data analysis tables and graphs, the Mesa College Library Collection Development Guidelines, the Colorado Library Law, and a sample acquisition report. (MES)
