As library collections become increasingly digital and less reliant on physical materials, a key question we face is how to connect patrons with these valuable digital resources and encourage their use. In the summer of 2025, the education and collections librarians at Boston University�s Alumni Medical Library (AML) collaborated to evaluate and highlight our Demand Driven Acquisition (DDA) EBSCO eBook Collection. DDA is an acquisition model in which patron use directly informs which eBooks are purchased.

"I use Doody's Core Titles throughout the year to update our collection. Once the new list is available, the Essential [Purchase] titles are reviewed. Those books that relate to our library are purchased right away.� When our patrons suggest titles�I check to see if it has an expert review and/or Doody's score before I make my decision. Prior to weeding a title that seems old I check to see if it is still current by looking on the Doody's Core Titles. To fill gaps in our collection it is easy to find a title to add by looking at New This Month or the Titles By Specialty. Needless to say, Doody's Core Titles is our main collection development tool.
