crl-11362	Thompson, Lawrence S.	The Dogma of Book Selection in University Libraries	1960-11-01	5	.pdf	application/pdf	3155	147	57	The realistic facts of the problem of book selection in university libraries are: (1) no one person is competent to select individual titles on a broad general basis; (2) the volume of publication is so great that there must be some form of selection; (3) no library has the funds to acquire, the personnel to process, and the space to shelve everything that ap- pears; and (4) who can predict what may be significant for future research in the deluge of preserved information? These are but a few examples of the multiplicity of problems involved in book selection in university libraries.	cache/crl-11362.pdf	txt/crl-11362.txt
