The goal of the acquisition guidelines of the Joseph F. Smith Library at Brigham Young University-Hawaii is to build a balanced and quality collection to serve the needs of the University.

Building a quality collection of undergraduate research materials comprises two components:

1) Selection and acquisition of new materials
2) Deselection and weeding of older materials

When these tasks are accomplished with the needs of the university curriculum in mind and in partnership with faculty members and librarians, the outcome is a strong collection that better serves all university patrons.
