What is "collection development"?
Collection development is the process of selecting, acquiring, and managing a library's or institution's collection of books, journals, and other materials. This involves evaluating the needs and interests of the library's users, making informed decisions about which materials to include, and ensuring that the collection is relevant, balanced, and up-to-date. Collection development also includes removing outdated or irrelevant materials and may involve budget management and working with publishers and vendors to obtain new items.
