“…Prioritizing areas of a collection for growth, or reduction in emphasis, is integral to the collection-planning process (Barreau 2001;Genoni 2004;Myall and Anderson 2007;Picket et al 2011), but how this should be done, and on what parts of a collection it should focus, was almost universally absent from the sampled policies. Similarly, while focusing on user demand-as needs, interests, or popular literature-was acknowledged in all policies, the detail was largely ephemeral; how demand was assessed and how the problem of inferring need from circulation statistics might be countered was not explored.…”

The role that public library collection development policies play in guiding selectors and informing users has been promoted as a pillar of good professional practice. While these policies purport to open up the methods and the criteria used in selection so as to promote transparency and a sense of professional objectivity, how they actually are developed and put into practice has remained largely implicit in the research literature. This analysis revealed that policies tended to focus on local issues and remained heavily materials focused. How collections are developed to support user's information needs and substantive issues associated with topicality are largely unarticulated.Collection policies provide a direction to librarians and users on how their institution has chosen to meet the materials and information needs of its users. This process is a complex mix of factors that involve issues associated with how the library is constituted, managed, and funded; how it is staffed; how staff are trained in the specific roles of materials selection and evaluation; the personal proclivities of the staff-their Weltanschauungen; and the types of materials sought and their range, depth, and availability.Public libraries are faced with a need to make choices and to prioritize based on a set of defined criteria and practical procedures.

“…Further to looking for broad definitions of the repository, there have also been efforts to define some general properties that either define the institutional repository, or are the natural outcome of maintaining one. From the literature available it is possible to define six characteristics without too much difficulty (Crow, 2002;Johnson, 2002;Lynch 2003;Genoni, 2004) :…”
