Background :<br />
Acquisition of library materials is a key process on which effectiveness of the library<br />
depends. A responsive collection is undoubtedly the basic input for any good library,<br />
which is the dynamic instrument for training, education and research. However, as no<br />
library can acquire every document published in the field due to limited resources<br />
selection of relevant document becomes very vital. As a result, it becomes necessary to<br />
develop techniques to ensure that library should acquire a collection which will meet<br />
pressing needs of its users and fulfill their intellectual, informational and recreational<br />
needs.<br />
Selection of documents for library is an objective task. It should be done carefully<br />
keeping in view principle of appropriateness. It also requires .acquaintance with the<br />
literature in the field, current trends, knowledge about reader's needs, existing book stock<br />
and its weaknesses and available books in print..<br />
Library is a prestigious organ of the Academy. To develop it from all angles by giving<br />
justice-to every department and section is the responsibility of all Heads of departments<br />
and all faculty members and staff. With this background a Library Book Selection<br />
Committee is formed with following objectives:<br />
Objectives :<br />
• To select, acquire and add quality documents, books, journals to YASHADA<br />
library.<br />
• To provide equal opportunity to develop collection 0f documents on all topics<br />
related to various departments of the Academy.<br />
