Suggest a Resource – Our Process

Submit a Request

UT Health San Antonio faculty, staff, and students may complete the Suggest a Resource Form to recommend a resource.

Library Review

We verify availability (not all resources are licensed to libraries), confirm digital access options, and obtain pricing. Costs may include one-time purchases (eBooks) or ongoing subscriptions (journals and databases).

Evaluation & Decision

Requests are reviewed by the Collection Development Committee.

• If approved: We acquire the resource and notify you
• If not approved: We will inform you and provide a brief explanation.

If funding is the only barrier, schools or departments may choose to fund the resource. The Libraries will manage licensing and access through a signed MOU. Contact Andrea N. Schorr or Dana Whitmire for details.

Future Consideration

Requests we cannot fulfill immediately remain on file and may be reconsidered if funding becomes available.
