	History / Political Science
		The History collection is comprised of reference works, monographs and serials which fall into Library of Congress classifications "D, E and F" (Eastern and Western Hemisphere history) and parts of "C" (auxiliary sciences of history - ie, history of civilization, archives, national biography).
		In general, history and political science materials should be reviewed every three to five years to remove materials no longer relevant to the curriculum, older materials where sufficient coverage is provided by more contemporary titles, and multiple copies of materials where high use is no longer a factor.
		Long runs of key scholarly journals in all aspects of history and political science that meet the criteria given in the introduction to this section should be retained indefinitely.
