crl-15866	Schwartz, Charles A.	The University Library and the Problem of Knowledge	2007-05-01	8	.pdf	application/pdf	3990	179	43	Whereas libraries with a traditionally undergraduate orientation regard collec- tions in terms of a curricular “service,” research libraries understand the loosely coupled nature of means and ends in what James G. March terms knowledge inventories: “Does society ‘overinvest’ in library books? Nor does it delve into the array of collection-devel- opment specifics for particular fields (for that ma er, library reports and program self-studies at the author’s institution are online).3 It makes some observations that, when combined with a university’s own needs and ingenuity, may be generally useful for judging whether a standard process to assess research collections would strengthen program review and refine institutional development.	cache/crl-15866.pdf	txt/crl-15866.txt
