I want to run a professional bookclub at East. Will the library buy the books?
Answer
The Library at East does not buy multiple copies of books for staff professional bookclubs.
They are handled in 2 ways…
- Books can be bought from Department Budgets (CAPEX) and they will be catalogued but located in the department that purchased them. The library will order and process these books.
- If books cannot be funded from a Department budget, and they align with the K-12 curriculum, please pass the request to miaohuiuwc@gapps.uwcsea.edu.sg and see if they can be purchased from the PL OPEX budget. These books can be ordered by the library but they are not catalogued. They become the teachers’ property.
