The Library welcomes suggestions for books and DVDs for purchase and will usually purchase materials suggested by students, faculty, and staff that further our mission “to support the teaching and research programs of the University.” To make a suggestion, click on the Suggest a Purchase link under Collections on the Students, Faculty, or Staff landing pages. If you would like to be notified when the item is ordered, you may include your email with your request. You may also request to have the item held for you once it is received and processed.
Faculty, please note that requests for new items to be placed on reserve should be emailed to the Reserves Department (reserve@du.edu) to ensure they are ordered and received in time for your course. For more details about placing materials on course reserves, please refer to our online guide. If you have any questions about how our collections can support your teaching and research or have suggestions for databases please contact your subject-specialist liaison librarian.
