What reading level is Selection And Acquisition Procedures in Medium Sized And Large Libraries volume book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Prior to the survey, there had been growing doubts of the need for continuing the Farmington Plan in western Europe; it was sup- posed that normal research library acquisitions might have increased during the preceding decade to such an extent that, without any plan, they would bring to the United States at least one copy of everything that was worth having. Studies made in the course of the survey did not support this theory. A random sampling of Farmington Plan re- ceipts indicated that 38. 5... per cent were held only by the library to which they had come under the Plan; an additional 14. 5 per cent were held only by this library and the Library of Congress. Of the unique items, moreover, it was ascertained that nearly two-thirds would probably not have been acquired if the Plan were not in operation. Finally, more than half of this group (12. 5 per cent of all receipts) were appraised as desirable items. On the debit side, 9 per cent of the total were of dubious value. 2 50 At the present time 64 libraries are participating in the Farm- ington Plan, and its coverage has been extended to 146 countries, large and small.
