Abstract: The paper highlights the current issues in acquisition and procurement of printed and digital resources in order to find out challenges and problems in Collection development in the ICT Environment in Engineering College Libraries. Collection Development in the ICT environment is still more challenges are increased due to the extensive information generated in print and digital form in engineering and technology area. There is need to integrate both print and electronic resources and also making changes in collection development practices in Engineering College Libraries. The main key issues are identified for redefining a collection development policy (CDP) include issues like balancing Ownership verses Access and Cooperative efforts and Evaluation.
The main aim of the collection development is to acquire and procurement of print and digital resources in order to provide integrated access to print and e-resources to the users in single window.
