Synopsis

The fifth release in the popular ALCTS Papers on Library Technical Services and Collections series sheds light on the impact of technology in collection management and developmental issues. The collection begins with an expansive overview by Paul Mosher; then moves into a discussion in three chapters on administrative issues; spends a couple of chapters on building constituents and stakeholders, followed by a "down in the trenches" treatment of coalition building; looks specifically at the impact of new technology in the next four chapters (Peggy Johnson contributes a chapter featuring a comparison of Internet to video games); contains a chapter by Atkinson on the current hot topic "access and ownership"; and concludes with four papers on the financial aspects of the subject.
