*Because I could not fit all required information for each resource on one page, I followed the basic format of the sample collection development plan. *Almost all of these resources had reviews which I considered before making selections. The materials from Delta Educational did not. Since our instructions said do not include reviews with your assignment, I did not put them in the above plan.

BUDGET SUMMARY
In researching the Georgia, 6th grade science standards for the universe, solar system, astronomy, gravity, moon phases, and eclipses, I studied the media center at Davidson Fine Arts Magnet School and talked with the media specialist, the 6th grade science teacher, and the assistant principal. Gathering information helped me to determine materials that the DFA media center needs to supplement its existing collection. I searched numerous book vendors, as well as sources for other educational science materials and have compiled what I believe is a comprehensive collection plan. My plan cost totals $3,610.28. This plan includes some equipment and a program provided by the National Science Center, as well as nonfiction, reference, and fiction sources, in a variety of formats, which contain multicultural and Spanish titles. On my netvibes PLN (http://www.netvibes.com/cnimmons#General), I linked to complimentary

6 RSS feeds. Below, I have listed links to helpful websites (I was unsuccessful at listing these on my netvibes PLN):
