Developing A Concept Of Collection For The Digital Age, Mary F. Casserly

University Libraries Faculty Scholarship

The author describes how the concept of collection, reflecting the profession’s principles, values, and practices as they pertained to print-based (analog) information resources, developed in the pre-World Wide Web environment. She poses five questions related to goals and practices in the analog environment to help libraries develop a concept of the hybrid collection.
