Subject: Newspaper Collection Development Policies

We are in the process of writing a comprehensive collection development
policy for the first time here at Willamette Univ. (I know we are a
little slow ...) We already have a policy in place for periodicals, but I
want to also include a separate section on newspapers.

I am seeking examples of policies related specifically to the selection
and retention of newspapers. Since we are a small liberal arts school,
I'm especially anxious to hear like institutions.

Thanks in advance!
