A university is rightly described as a community where scholars and teachers are the head, students are the body and library its heart. If the community is to perform its functions properly and efficiently its heart must then be strong and efficient in its functioning. Collection Development means planning for a systematic and organized erection of general collection. There are two forms for collection development in academic libraries, centralized and decentralized systems. In centralized system the full responsibility of library is of the Central Library and on the other hand in decentralized system the responsibilities of library systems are divided into the departmental academic Libraries.
