If you would like to see a piece of media added to our collection, you can request new media purchases using our online Media Request Form. Recommendations are checked by our staff and periodically sent to the College Deans for review. Deans may then recommend purchases based on their available budget. Purchase orders are issued to distributors who ship the available media. AT staff process the media as we receive it (review, catalog and number them) and then notify the requesting faculty that it is available for checkout. The entire acquisitions process, from recommendation to notification, usually takes two semesters. It can take longer if the media is backordered or no longer available.
