crl-14577	Carpenter, Eric	Acquisitions Management and Collection Development in Libraries (Book Review)	1990	3	.pdf	application/pdf	1737	83	46	Introductory chapters, including an overview, policies, and organization of collection development, are followed by chapters on acquisitions: organization, pre-order searching, the order process (single titles), vendor-based order plans, purchasing special types of materials, nonbook materials, serials, gifts and ex­ changes, and a concluding chapter on the evaluation of both collection development and acquisitions activities. Ford's original version of this book was devoted solely to acquisitions, not collection development, and the book remains important for its thorough coverage of policies, proce­ dures, and problems of acquisitions.	cache/crl-14577.pdf	txt/crl-14577.txt
