Making a Decision on New Acquisitions
Posted by: Sara Rofofsky Marcus

In this tightening of the belt time, how do you determine when a new title is worth consideration? Is it fair to ask for trials when you know your budget can’t cover it; is this considered checking to see if it’s worth canceling other items? I don’t have the answer for this, but I do wonder this as we start looking for new options at my library.
