Abstract:
An academic library is said to be the heart of an institution. It plays an important role in the teaching and learning process for both faculty and students. The success of one's library is determined by the strength of its library collection and the extent of use made by its clientele. In building the library collection, Acquisition librarians follow specific steps and procedures based on the collection development policy supporting the mission and vision of the institution. The study shows a comparative analysis of the collection development and the usage of JRU library in three years (SY 2004-2007). This study is designed to assess the usefulness of the JRU library collection to an extremely important user group like faculty and students. The purpose of this analysis is to determine the quantity and quality of the collection.
it would be best if you have an index of LIS abstract and a search tool for fast retrieval of searching a specific title. this message pertains to the moderator and not to the researcher of this thesis. thank you.
ReplyDeleteHi, Det that is a very nice suggestion. However, the moderator has very limited time to encode, edit and proofread the gathered abstract. The alternative to your suggestion are the labels which found at the end part of each entry. You can use the labels as the index.
