Abstract

Most literature on acquisitions, as well as on other aspects of librarianship, tends to focus on the developed countries. Automation, the application of the latest technologies and skills to library service, and similar issues are exhaustively studied and discussed. Unfortunately, such subjects are hardly of immediate relevance to the countries of the Third World.
