Abstract

The author discusses the constraints and criteria for collection development in libraries and information centres, and examines the internet as a world-wide source of information and as scope for electronic collection development. The role of internet as more than just a channel for communication is also discussed. The different roles the Net has to play in the information scenario, specially in connection with collection development, are given.
