Suggest a Purchase


The Library is happy to consider suggestions for improving our collections to better meet the research needs of USU students, faculty, and staff. In addition to new purchases, materials can also be requested from other libraries using 
interlibrary loan.

USU students, faculty, and staff may suggest additions to our local collections using the options below. In keeping with our collection development guidelines, the Library generally does not purchase textbooks for use in USU courses. With the University’s adoption of the Aggie Access textbook program and a focus on electronic textbooks, the library no longer offers a Course Reserves program for print textbooks.

Suggest a Book Purchase

Recommendations for new book purchases can be submitted through our book suggestion form.

NOTE: Due to our recent library system migration, we are currently experiencing delays in reviewing book purchase suggestions. We are working through these recommendations as quickly as possible and appreciate your patience as we troubleshoot the new system. If you have an urgent need for an item, please contact the Cataloging & Acquisitions Program Chair, Becky Skeen.
