Policies
The Collection Development Policy sets out how Donegal Library Service intends to build its collection to provide access to a wide range of quality resources for the entire community. The policy provides guidelines on the procedures and objectives for the selection, acquisition, management, promotion and disposal of stock. The policy ensures a consistent and balanced growth of the collection. It considers changing and emerging needs of communities in line with technological advances and access to services.
