To ensure that the collection created satisfies knowledge needs, the librarian must work in conjunction with faculty and other stakeholders while choosing books for collection development. Therefore, the academic library's responsibility is to acquire, manage, gather, and select relevant and high-quality information sources to satisfy the demands of library users and cover the various fields of knowledge Along with the development of digital technology, electronic information sources are becoming an important component in building library collections. Therefore, academic libraries are now developing their collections using the Evidence-Based Acquisition (EBA) method to guarantee that library collections satisfy user needs and increase the efficiency of material purchases. This modern approach allows academic libraries to build relevant collections, prioritizes user needs, cost-efficient, and makes the acquisition process more efficient and better aligned with academic needs. The main elements of EBA are based on on-demand access, whereby library users can access resources before the library makes a purchase decision. Besides, the library will only purchase materials that are often accessed or utilized. This article discusses the impact of the Evidence-Based Acquisition (EBA) method in UM Library collection development practices. [For the complete proceedings, see ED678749.] |
