Description

Introduction Libraries have limited budgets and Collection Development Librarians can be faced with difficult decisions in the spending of their allocated funds. This paper discusses how the Tasmanian Polytechnic Launceston Campus Library discovered a gap in their collection and addressed this situation without funding. The Library wished to purchase fiction in languages other than English, but did not have a budget to purchase recreational resources and thus a project was begun to develop such a collection from donations and grants. A literature review indicates the relevance of developing a foreign language collection in an academic context. A short background on the Polytechnic library is provided, followed by the project itself, describing the process and an evaluation of its success.
