Description

Collection Development is a compilation of 20 papers that explore the assumption that mission affects policy. To what extent do the unique features and mission of the small college library create distinctive concerns for it? The papers presented here demonstrate an alternative to the assumption that what works in large university libraries will also work in small ones.
