Presentation Abstract
I frequently make decisions about the quantity and types of editions that we need for scores in our collection. Because we serve an unusually large and diverse community, I often acquire multiple copies and multiple editions of the same work in order to meet the demands of users. In my talk, I will focus on several different works that can serve as case studies that illustrate the kinds of questions that I must answer on a regular basis about collection development and management. It is my hope that these case studies will be helpful to other librarians who regularly confront similar situations.
