Functions and Activities

Different disciplines rely more heavily on one format of resources than another. For that reason there is no methodology that will work equally well for all bibliographers. Some disciplines rely more heavily on journal titles. Others rely more on monographic resources. Teaching faculty differ as well. Some will be more proactive in recommending resources. Others will need some encouragement.

Bibliographer as Subject Specialist

The bibliographer in their role as subject specialist helps to develop the libraries' collections in support of the university's research and instructional missions through recommendation for purchase of all formats of library materials. These recommendations or requests should be documented in the Outside Purchase Requests form. Although all of these recommendations may not be in the purchase due to budget or scope of the resource, it is important to document all requests for consideration.
