LI855 COLLECTION DEVELOPMENT AND MANAGEMENT: FRICK ART REFERENCE LIBRARY CDP ANALYSIS

          Libraries organize and maintain information on micro and macro levels. Different libraries may have similar elements in the collection development policies. The Frick Library is part of the Frick Museum, and its CDP had some interesting aspects regarding the preservation of objects. I had visited the Frick about 10 years ago; this was before I knew about the library.

          The Frick Art Reference Library has a CDP unique to its collection. This Collection Development Policy Analysis describes an overall positive SWOT analysis and makes suggestions for possible improvement with the donations and gifts policy.
