A. Chronology of the Subject
Because the curriculum is directed toward developing and supporting current professionals in the specialized fields of human resources and labor relations, collection emphasis has been and remains on current materials. However, historical materials are also selected, with an emphasis on the 19th and 20th centuries.

English is the primary language for the collection. Materials in other languages are only selectively purchased.
C. Geography of the Subject

D. Types of Materials and Formats
All appropriate formats, including print, electronic and video recordings, are collected.
E. Date of Publication Resources Collected
With the exception of essential historical works, important classics or reprints as needed, only materials published within the immediate past five years should be collected.
