The Library's physical and digital collections are administered by a team of subject librarians — also called selectors or bibliographers — who make purchase decisions in consultation with Cornell scholars. The list of the Library's liaisons to academic departments and programs may be found at https://www.library.cornell.edu/services/liaisons.
