Welcome to the Collections pages. Here you will find information about
According to the Association of College & Research Libraries (ACRL), "Scholarly communication is the system through which research and other scholarly writings are created, evaluated for quality, disseminated to the scholarly community, and preserved for future use." Research library collections have traditionally been identified with the print record of such communication, but a number of developments during the past 10-15 years in the information landscape have begun to radically alter the way research is being published and collected by libraries.
For more information:
Collections are developed by acquiring, organizing, preserving, publishing, digitizing information that will support the teaching, research, and creation of new knowledge by the faculty and students of Boston College.
Recommend items for the library collections by e-mailing a Subject Librarian.
