Influences On Library Liaison And Faculty Collaboration In Collection Development, Tim Butzen

Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal)

Much has been written about library liaison programs in academic libraries throughout the United States.

This brief paper synthesizes relevant literature to identify the dynamics that currently influence this collaboration.
