This document discusses important issues in collection development for academic libraries in the 21st century. It outlines the needs of traditional and non-traditional students, challenges related to budget cuts and increasing costs, and the importance of having an updated collection development plan, assessing the existing collection, selecting new materials, weeding outdated items, and cooperating with other libraries and departments. The goal is to develop and maintain a collection that best serves students and meets the library's mission by balancing print and electronic resources and anticipating user needs.
Collection Development (that based on the five laws of S.R.Ranghanathan) is very important part of Collection Management. If we don’t adopt advanced technologies, collection then we can never fulfill the need of advanced users and libraries will become freeze, this is against the 5th law of Ranghanathan that “ Library is a growing organism”.

The Requirement For Worthy Attribute of Library Staff in Tertiary Institution...AJHSSR Journal
: This study focuses on the requirement for worthy attribute of library staff in tertiary institutions’
library services so as to be more relevant in the new information age. This is based on the fact that institutions’
libraries are set up now to extend services beyond their physical walls, provide materials accessible by
electronic means and at the same time to provide unrestricted access to information. Invariably, to effectively
cope with their changing roles in the library system, Librarians need to avail themselves to training and
retraining programmes local, regional and international so as to keep pace with the development in the
Information Communication Technologies in the 21st Century to provide optimum services for library
users/clienteles. The study concludes that individuals must be preparing to make personal sacrifices towards
upgrading themselves. Similarly, tertiary institutions/ organisations should as a matter of obligation develop
people; it has no choice. It either helps them grow or it stunts them. It either forms them or it deforms them as
opine by Drucker, Peter F (1990). This training and retraining programmes is imperative in this new Information
Communication Technology dispensation as far as librarianship is concerned

He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
