I recently completed the Collection Development and Management course at Stanmore School of Business, and I must say it was a valuable learning experience. The course provided a detailed overview of the collection development process, including needs assessment, collection analysis, and evaluation. I found the course materials to be well-organized and easy to follow, with clear explanations and examples that illustrated key concepts. The course also covered more advanced topics, such as managing digital collections and negotiating with vendors, which were relevant to my work as a collection development librarian. One area for improvement could be the inclusion of more interactive elements, such as discussions or group activities, to enhance the learning experience. Nevertheless, I would recommend this course to others seeking to develop their skills in collection development and management, as it provides a solid foundation for understanding the principles and practices of collection development.
