Faculty "Expensive Materials" Requests Due Oct. 13
Application Form (opens as Word document)
The University Library invites University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill faculty members to submit proposals by Oct. 13 for one-time library materials purchases that support research and teaching at the University.
The Library especially seeks requests at this time for items that cost $500 or more. Materials nominated may be in any format; however, proposals may not be for subscription titles.
The Library maintains certain special funds, including the Research Fund and the Library Discretionary Fund, designed to support research and teaching through special purchases. These funds are especially suitable for materials that may be unusually expensive or that fall outside the usual acquisition scope for a given discipline.
Submissions will be reviewed either by the Collections Committee of the Administrative Board of the Library or by the Library's Collection Development Council, depending on the nature of the request. These groups will also set priorities for filling unfunded requests, should additional funds become available at a later time.
For additional information about this process, please contact John Rutledge (jbr@email.unc.edu or 919-962-1095).
