Conspectus

Collection Assessment Projects

In 1997, the Thompson Library undertook a major project analyzing its collection. Librarians, library staff, and departmental faculty systematically examined the library's holdings using the WLN Conspectus method. A report was issued early in 1999, detailing the collections strengths, weaknesses, trends, and future prospects. Several years later, the Thompson Library issued a smaller report, following up on developments since the 1997-99 conspectus.

In the belief that the findings contained in these reports were of interest to the campus, to the community at large, and to libraries around the country and abroad, we published the documents on our website. Any future conspectus projects at the Thompson Library will be publicized at this website.
