Collection development in libraries
It is not usual to find collections development policies in public libraries, although it would be desiderable, due to the importance of creating a quality collection. That is why we should comment on two initiatives carried out in this direction in Catalonia. In one hand, the Servei de Biblioteques de la Diputació de Barcelona has published its collection development policy in a document that can be downloaded from its web. On the other hand, the Servei d’Informació Selectiva, from the Departament de Cultura de la Generalitat de Catalunya, has made a complete selection of what must be the basic fund in a public library. The different selections of documents can be downloaded en PDF fron this service web.
