Abstract
This paper provides an evaluation of education and training for library collection development in Ghana. It presents a brief history of education in Ghana with particular reference to library education. The program of the Department of Library and Archival Studies at the University of Ghana is discussed with regard to course levels and course structure. The syllabus for the course in acquisitions/collection development is also discussed, and various problems faced by teachers and students of this course are highlighted. It is concluded that although students find the course interesting and valuable, problems such as lack of audiovisual materials for teaching and inadequate reading materials for the students must be solved in order to increase the usefulness of the course.
