*The Publications Committee of the Collection Management Section of ALCTS
is sponsoring the Eighth Annual Collection Management & Development
Research Forum at the 2017 American Library Association Annual Conference
in Chicago, Sunday June 25th, 2017 at 4:30 pm, McCormick Place West, Room
S106A*



Lindsay Barnett will describe her research into the usage, recommendation
level, subject distribution, and cost of e-book titles purchased through
Demand Driven Acquisition (DDA). This research moves beyond looking simply
at the number of titles purchased, analyzing the ability of a DDA program
to build quality, sustainable e-book collections.  Lindsay is Collection
Development & Assessment Librarian at the College of Charleston Libraries.



Lisa Romero will describe her analysis of 30 years of research from 118
communication studies journals. Citation data from these journals is used
to identify the most relevant scholarly journals in the multi-disciplinary
area of communication studies and provide librarians with the data
necessary to make responsible collection management decisions that
accurately reflect the research needs of communication studies users. Lisa
is Head of the Communications Library at the University of Illinois at
Urbana-Champaign.
