The text also includes discussions of intellectual freedom, legal issues in collection development, and collaborative collection development. Timely topics such as diversity, open access, AI, digital preservation, local history, creation spaces, and "libraries of things" bring this comprehensive overview up to date. Engagingly written and easy to understand, chapters rely on feedback from experts working in the field and include many sidebars with practical examples and resources. Designed primarily for students in LIS programs, the text is also a valuable resource for all library workers responsible for collection management.
