Abstract

A library is relevant to its users only when it provides relevant information to them. Collection development plays a vital role in fulfilling ever growing and changing demands of the users of libraries. The ideal collection of information of any form by a library should be quality-based rather than quantity. This paper presents different aspects of collection development and analyses the growth of collection in the library so far with particular reference to books and e-resources. This article provides guidelines for building the collection development to meet the information needs of the users of the libraries.
