Dear colleagues,

John Walsh, Associate University Librarian; Cynthia Holt, Head, Collection Development & Preservation; and Gretchen Reynolds, Social Sciences Liaison Librarian, all of George Mason University, are writing a book chapter about increasing interdisciplinarity in academia and how academic and research libraries are experiencing and responding to this trend, specifically in the area of collection development.

 With this in mind, we would like to invite you to participate in a short survey that includes the following questions.

 1.  Have you observed increasing interdisciplinarity in your University community or in your University Library?  If so, how?

2.   How is your library or institution responding to increased interdisciplinarity in academia?

 3.  What effect has interdisciplinarity had on your collection development practices and activities?

 4.  Is your library using a particular approach to respond to interdisciplinarity in general or in collection development?  If so, please describe.

 5.      What is working well and what challenges do you still face in your collection development approach to increasing interdisciplinarity in academia?

 If you would like to participate in the survey, please click the link below.
