Pathfinders On-Line: Adding Pathfinders to a NOTIS On-Line System

For decades, print pathfinders have complemented card catalogs and been useful reference tools.

Rehabilitation Counseling Academic Program Review

This report summarizes an evaluation of the UNT Libraries' Rehabilitation Counseling-related resources and materials to determine if the collection is adequately serving patron needs. It was generated as part of the UNT Libraries’ contributions to the university’s Academic Program Reviews, which are conducted by the Accreditation office in the Division of Planning. The UNT Libraries’ Collection Assessment Department evaluated collections’ ability to meet the curricular and research needs of the academic programs being reviewed. They assessed current needs based on course descriptions and research outputs, defined the scope of information needed based on this needs assessment, and evaluated the Libraries’ holdings in these subject areas against the usage, qualitative listings, and requests for materials from other libraries. Specific recommendations for collection development are provided based on the results of these analyses

Black education operated under the Department of Education and Training and some of the schools did offer guidance services through auxiliary services.
