Abstract

Collection management grows more complicated each day. The steady growth of publications, publishers and formats coupled with a corresponding decline in budgets requires that librarians make more judicious purchasing decisions. In addition to traditional selection aids, the Web now offers up‐to‐the‐minute tools such as reviews, publisher catalogs and bibliographies. This article identifies and describes various Web‐based resources that can help librarians make more informed selection decisions.
