Decker Library: Suggest a Purchase

Home

Forms

Thank you for suggesting an item for Decker Library to purchase for the collection. We're interested in buying materials that would benefit the MICA community, so we appreciate your help.

Before Using This Form

Check the Library Catalog for your suggestion to make sure we don't already own it.
If you are a faculty member and you would like to request we purchase streaming rights for a film we do not yet have access to on Kanopy, please visit our Video Streaming Service for Faculty page.
If you need an item sooner than 1 month, we suggest requesting it via Interlibrary Loan.

Note on eBook Requests

Please note that eBooks for Libraries work differently than the kind commercially available to individuals, so we may not be able to fulfill every request. Reasons for this include the book not being available from our vendor or the book not being available in eBook format. We suggest checking Enoch Pratt Free Library holdings if we cannot fulfill an ebook request or consider a print copy if it is available.
