Levels of Collecting Intensity

Given the historical strength of the collection, the overall goal should be Level 4. Much relevant material will come in as area studies, and their designated levels will apply.

The major focus in terms of LC classification will be the HC range, especially HC59.7-60, with an important range also in HD 79-88. However, almost any social science or humanities subject may be relevant to this interdisciplinary field.
