Collection evaluation
The collection was evaluated using the conspectus method. It contains a table. Within individual subject areas the present state of the collection is determined. The table also expresses a strategy for collection development with respect to the institutional mission, and determines present acquisition policies that issue from the collection development strategy but transform it into circumstances given by financial resources for acquisition. By clicking on individual codes for collection level set according to the conspectus and on language codes you get their description and meaning.
