It analyses the most effective mechanisms for establishing a cooperative collection agenda, including making the most economical use of library funds; inadequate delivery mechanisms; and the effects of the Internet on the expectations of library patrons and how interlibrary loans can help. It concludes that a library's collection development future may lie in providing financial subsidies to fund large storehouses of digital records.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45241558466711,"sku":"9780367369484","price":3130.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780367369484.webp?v=1769229096","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/cooperative-collection-development-significant-trends-and-issues-9780367369484","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
