This is not something that can be accomplished in a short period of timeor alone. The greatest need in formulating a collection development policy is for ideas these ideas must come from different people and different points of view. Even the smallest library must gather ideas from a number of people interested in keeping the library alive, vital, and a part of the community it serves. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Collection Building Emerald Publishing
