Abstract
This article presents a model for collection development appropriate for libraries whose primary purpose is to support undergraduate education. After a discussion of the organizational prerequisites for client-centered collection development in small and medium-sized academic libraries, a step-by-step approach to the implementation of such a program is sketched. It is argued that academic libraries following this strategy can create a decision-making structure whereby important collection development initiatives are taken by the library with the advice and consent of the teaching faculty.
