Collection development policy is the course of action adopted for developing the collection or stock in a library. The Collection Development Policy is designed to support the Library's Mission statement and serves as a guide for the selection, acquisition, maintenance, and retention of materials by establishing roles, responsibilities, and a process for addressing Library user concerns. This book is intended to provide a wide-ranging coverage of some major collections-related trends and issues in current academic libraries today. The book covers state of the art information on collection development policy of the library, the aims and objectives of the organization/ institution, the needs of the user’s community, and the availability of financial and other resources.
