In Korea, more than half of medical libraries are small.sized hospital libraries operated under the single.librarian system, and it is keenly required to establish collection management policies for exchanging resources with other libraries and maintaining consistency. however, it is rare to set up their collection management policies on the web among the domestic medical libraries. Thus, this study purposed to survey cases of collection management policies in domestic and foreign medical libraries and to provide basic information and ideas for Korean medical libraries that are preparing collection management policies. As long as core requirements are satisfied, collection management policies do not have a way. Thus, this case study is expected to provide useful ideas to medical libraries developing their collection management policies. For this purpose, we selected 12 survey items based on previous studies, and investigated one domestic and five foreign medical libraries, and analyzed collected data. Based on the results of analyzing the cases, we suggested 12 guidelines.

If you can not pinpoint the location of a desired item through union catalogs and online databases, the next best thing is to identify a special collection that is likely to have it. Many libraries have many items that are recorded only on their own premises as special collections. This paper describes the value of special collections as important information sources and the guides for determining the existence and location of special collections. Women's collection development by KWIC is introduced as a case study of special collection building in the university libraries in Korea.

Collection development policies(CDP) are becoming increasingly important to libraries of all types and sizes. The paper addresses the elements to develop a collection development policy to guide the librarians for the science and technology information resources. Instead of focusing on how well a given item fits into or supports the collection, the policy gives general guidance on the selection of information resources. The general collection development guidelines for the information resources include relevance and potential use of the information, demand for the information, ease of use of the product, subject and magnitudes, stability of the coverage of the resource, longevity of the information and evaluation mechanism.

In recent years, electronic technologies are rapidly changing the library's approach to collection management. In digital age, collection is a hybrid, that is, a mix of analog materials and digital information resources. But electronic publications are both a blessing and a curse for libraries. And the rapid acceptance of electronic resources raises many misconceptions and myths about their capabilities. This paper analyzes the digital paradox of current collection management from six standpoints : production of digital informations : digital scholarly communication : digital access paradigm : acceptance of e-journal package web collection development : digital archiving. Nowadays the pragmatic view of library is a logical information gateway to its own services and those of other libraries and information providers. Libraries and librarians need a concept and strategies of the hybrid collection management that reflects digital reality.

This study attempted to analyze the collection management process and its requirements for public libraries. The survey was designed to examine the detailed collection management guidelines and to grasp its requirements varying across different types of public libraries. The respondents to the survey were librarians who are responsible for managing collections in public libraries which achieved excellence in the 2008 nationwide library management assessment. The study results indicated that most public libraries do not have organized collection management guidelines covering the whole collection management area. In addition, small libraries such as those in hospitals, armies, and prisons have difficulties in managing collections since they do not have proper collection management guidelines.
