Abstract

Serials collection management is more challenging for librarians in university libraries. This study covers collection development of commerce and management serials in six general universities of Karnataka state. Due to the limited budget, space, lack of onsite or off site storage, and shortage of staff, it required balanced collection development of scientific serials. This article identifies the year-wise and university wise subscription of Commerce and Management serials. Total 451 (67.7%) of the serial titles in collection were Commerce and they accounted for (67.7%) and for 251 (32.3%) of Management serial titles subscribed to by six university libraries from 2004-2008. This study helped to know how many universities subscribed to common titles and how many universities subscribed uniform serials independently without any duplication.

Keywords : Serial titles; Commerce; Management; Karnataka universities.
