Purchase Recommendation Guidelines & Form

The Academy Library actively encourages its users to recommend items for purchase. Your recommendations will assist in the building and management of the Library collection.

Selection of Recommended Items
Purchase recommendations are assessed by Library staff to ensure they are aligned with the research needs, the learning & teaching requirements of UNSW Canberra and the Library's Collection Development Policy (pdf).

In most cases the book you have recommended for purchase will be ordered within 48 hours.  If for any reason we are not going to proceed with the order, we will contact you promptly to advise you.

Library staff will notify you when the item is received if you have requested notification in the form below.

Academic staff and students are also encouraged to raise issues or concerns about the collection with the
Collection Development Librarian.
