Dear Prabaharan

What type of details you require about CDP kindly tell me

D.P. Singh

 

 

Mr. Prabaharan,

You can devise your own CDP based on the needs, budget of your institute and the usage pattern of the users of your library.  Say you may have to add books in a particular ratio (1:5 :: user:Books) for text books and a different ratio for Reference. Or say you may want to develop Indian collection in a particular stream or foreign collection in a particular stream (depending upon the ease of usage of the collection by your users).  So the point is CDP for an institute has to be framed only after a thorough research of the parent organization's necessities. Essentially it has to be tailored to suit your institute, but ideas can be borrowed  from others to base the same.

Sir,thank you for the reply.Now I am working in a management college.CDP is a general one or subject based,kindly explain simply.sorry for the disturbance.
