Fundamentals of Collection Development and Management, Fifth Edition
Abstract
In its fifth edition, Fundamentals of Collection Development and Management remains one of the
field’s most comprehensive one-volume works. For this first post-COVID-19 revision, author Peggy
Johnson, a long-respected authority in collection development, now teams up with Mary Beth
Weber, a leader in academic technical services, to present an ambitious and far-reaching survey of
collection practice. The authors clearly state their goal: to provide both a comprehensive guide for new
professionals and a useful reference for experienced selectors and managers. For the most part, the
book succeeds with few limitations
