As the information environment continues to evolve, the Library reviews collection decisions on an ongoing basis. Annual subscriptions are assessed in order to ensure continued relevance to the curriculum, usability, cost-effectiveness, and minimal duplication of content between sources. Additionally, new products and technologies may be incorporated as opportunities arise. The Library takes a pro-active, evidence-based approach to collection decisions and may add, change or cancel subscriptions in order to best fulfill its mandate.
