One-time purchase suggestions for OSU Library??

[Hurley, Belinda]

All,

As the end of FY16  approaches, the library has several thousand dollars in Physics and Astronomy endowment funds which have not been spent.  I'm looking for suggestions for one-time purchases (no subscriptions).  In general, one-time purchases include books, e-books, and journal e-archives.  Please provide me with any suggestions ASAP so that I can authorize the purchase and give our acquisitions' group sufficient time to complete the paperwork, etc.

Best link for determining whether we already own an item:  http://library.ohio-state.edu/search/t

Funds not spent roll back into the principal, so it will not be "lost," but I wanted to ensure that there weren't any wants or needs of which we are not aware.

Best regards,
