Abstract
A selection and acquisitions policy is an essential tool for the daily management of an information center or library, especially nowadays when budget limitations have become a major preoccupation of library administrators. This article presents the results obtained by the Collection Evaluation Committee at Intevep's Technical Information Center in drafting such a policy. Guidelines are given for the evaluation of materials by type, formal, time and language, as well as for the deselection (weeding) o f documents, donations and exchange, which are activities often put off in a library.
