The Collection strives to meet the needs of the SAIT community, in alignment with the combined values of SAIT and the Reg Erhardt Library, by providing access to the highest quality academic resources. To accomplish this goal, the Collections Team utilizes a ‘Data & Demand-Driven Acquisitions’ approach. Resources are continually evaluated based on cost per use statistics, while a comprehensive collection is attained by limiting outright purchases until a proven methodology has been used to assess value. Practical, authoritative materials that directly impact the success of SAIT students are considered resources of highest value.
