1 Awareness trumps both access and ownership: collection development for small CJK collections Sharon Domier self-professed agile East Asian Studies Librarian for Amherst College, Smith College and the University of Massachusetts Amherst

2 My chief mandate: to bridge the gap between information needs and information sources

3 Start with 1 st Years – Collaborate with instructors to set info lit goals

4 Free dictionaries can be the right fit

5 If you match books to their readers

6 Meeting their information needs does not just mean buying materials

7 We can save their time by providing clear guidance on appropriate tools, and statistics show our work is valued

8 Access is impeded if users arent aware of how to interpret data

9 Discovery tools like China Maxx provide more information than library catalogs or online bookstores

10 Purchasing individual titles are much, much cheaper than using ILL.

11 Thanks to Amherst College Library! I now use an iPad for both reference and collection development

12 NCIKU e-books offer Chinese/English/Pinyin and Audio!

13 Rodoku Shojo – text & audio

14 Viewn: iPad app for current journals

15 Awareness also means sharing and learning from each other. I look forward to hearing about your successes and challenges. Thank you!
