About the Exchange Program
The exchange program is one of the largest and most successful programs in the United States and has been an ongoing program for over 50 years.The exchange program operates on a barter system; by trading research publications with over 640 partner libraries, institutions, academies, and museums around the world, the University of Florida Libraries recurrently receive over 1,100 serial and monograph series titles. The serial titles and monographs received from UF exchange partners are often hard-to-find publications that significantly bolster collections in the libraries. The collections that most benefit from the Smathers Libraries' exchange program are the Marston Science Library, Architecture and Fine Arts Library, and the Latin American Collection.
