Library Collection Development Policies: School Libraries and
Learning Resource Centers represents an ongoing effort to fill the
void in the library literature relating to collection development
policies. The authors' experience spans four decades as library
educators and practitioners. They created this book, as well as the
earlier volume devoted to academic, public, and special libraries,
to assist both library school students and professionals in the
field regarding the compilation, revision, and implementation of
policies. Many libraries carry out the vital function of collection
development without any form of documented plan. This work provides
such a plan and is divided into three major sections. Part one
focuses on standardized elements most likely to be found in
selection policies, thereby serving as a blueprint for building
library holdings; part two explores the ethical and legal issues
ensuing from the use of digital resources; and part three addresses
digital information within the context of traditional library
operations. Concluding the book are two appendixes, one identifies
the school libraries that provided material serving either as
examples or illustrating the function of various policy statements,
and the other provides a selection of materials from the American
Library Association dealing with intellectual freedom.
