Abstract

The impact of CD-ROM databases, internet and digital libraries on collection development is quite significant. Challenges in this regard are discussed in this paper and argued that it is necessary to conduct a survey of available sources on various networks. Effective techniques are required to search and store the downloaded data. The policy for collection development should take care of recent advances in information technology and its impact.
