    Use of Choice Reviews to Build the Geosciences Collection
    (Nazarbayev University, 2019-09-12) Yap, Joseph M.; Kozhayeva, Altynay
    The Nazarbayev University School of Mining and Geosciences was established in 2016 to study and conduct research on the vast mineral reserves of the country. The school now has three bachelor’s programs, two master’s programs and the recently launched PhD program. With emerging programs being introduced, it is vital to establish the academic and reference sources that the school will need to offer the courses. In 2018, the library acquired Choice Reviews Online to help the subject librarians build a strong discipline-oriented collection. This paper aims to identify the current holdings of the geosciences field based on Choice Reviews Online. The study used collection evaluation to analyze the strength of the collection.
