N2  - This edited volume delves into the assessment strategies used by the various departments in libraries’ technical services. These strategies encompass a variety of options, including approaches, plans, and policies that should be applicable in a department of any size. The sequence of this book's chapters encompasses the technical services life cycle and moves from the selection of materials through their acquisition, their entry into the catalog, and finally to their long-term preservation. -- Preface
