Abstract
Taking into account the objectives and resources available. every library has
to evolve a pragmatic and positive approach for developing its collection to
meet the information needs of its users. The problems encounted by the
libraries in India for this. however. are shrinking budgets. rare and out of
print books. and lack of comprehensive and up-to-date tools for non-book
materials. The author describes the efforts made by INFLIBNET in the area
of library networking and resource sharing and concludes that the collection
building and resources sharing using sophisticated technology will take some
time to set in
