This study assessed the print collection of an Asian academic medical library using list-checking. The library's book collection was matched to Doody's Core Titles (DCT) subspecialties to identify strong and weak subject areas and understand temporal trends from 2014 to 2020. Basic sciences and nursing were the strongest subspecialties from 2018 to 2020, with many subjects having 100% matches, likely because most academic programs share the same basic sciences foundation subjects and nursing collections had been developed for many years as a long-standing program of the institution. Associated health-related disciplines was the weakest subspecialty. These subjects need to be prioritized in collection development. All subspecialties exhibited an increasing trend of matching between 2014 and 2020. Electronic books were included in the matching to DCT 2020; however, the match was low compared to print only or both print and electronic titles. DCT title matching can not only identify gaps in library collections that need to be filled but also point toward opportunities to develop strong and varied collections in medicine and allied health.

合规馆藏:使用 Doody 的 Core Titles 评估医疗和相关健康馆藏。

本研究使用列表检查评估了亚洲学术医学图书馆的印刷馆藏。图书馆的藏书与 Doody 的 Core Titles (DCT) 子专业相匹配,以确定强弱学科领域并了解 2014 年至 2020 年的时间趋势。基础科学和护理是 2018 年至 2020 年最强的子专业,许多学科匹配度达到 100% ,可能是因为大多数学术课程共享相同的基础科学基础科目,而护理馆藏作为该机构的一项长期计划已经开发多年。相关的健康相关学科是最薄弱的子专业。这些主题需要在馆藏开发中被优先考虑。2014-2020年所有子专科均呈现匹配度上升趋势。电子图书纳入DCT 2020配套;但是,与仅印刷版或印刷版和电子版相比,匹配度较低。DCT 标题匹配不仅可以识别图书馆馆藏中需要填补的空白,还可以指出在医学和相关健康领域开发强大而多样的馆藏的机会。
