The New Mythology: Co-operative Collection Development.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Maass, Barbara – Canadian Library Journal, 1989
Reviews the historical record of cooperative collection development activities and identifies fundamental problems that have hampered these activities. An argument is made for the need to implement a resource network approach which emphasizes short term need and resources as opposed to long range planning. (20 references) (CLB)
