Liberal Arts Colleges and "Standards for College Libraries": A Quantitative Analysis.

Crawford, Gregory A.; White, Gary W.

Journal of Academic Librarianship, v25 n6 p439-44 Nov 1999

Formulas from the "Standards for College Libraries" were used to compare the recommended collection size and number of professional librarians with the actual size of the collections and number of librarians for a random sample of Baccalaureate I and II colleges. Results revealed that significant numbers are not meeting the "Standards" in these areas. (AEF)
