Management of Popular Reading Collections |
| |
| Abstract: | In an effort to satisfy the leisure reading demands of students, the Brigham Young University library provides a small collection of books for browsing. A study of circulation statistics led to a heavier emphasis on paperbacks, a change in emphasis to fiction purchases, and the replacement of the McNaughton Plan with local purchasing. Currency of the titles was not found to be related to popularity. Science fiction, fantasy, and romance were found to be the most popular subjects. |
