A system for tailoring journal collections to meet institutional needs is described. The approach is based on the view that reference work and collection development are variant and complementary forms of the same library function; both tasks have as their objective a literature response to information problems. Utilizing the tools and procedures of the reference search in response to a specific collection development problem topic, the author created a model ranked list of relevant journals. Finally, by linking the model to certain operational and environmental factors in three different health care organizations, he tailored the collection to meet the institutions' respective information needs.
本文描述了一种为满足机构需求而定制期刊馆藏的系统。该方法基于这样一种观点，即参考工作和馆藏发展是同一图书馆功能的不同但互补的形式；这两项任务的目标都是针对信息问题提供文献回应。作者利用参考检索的工具和程序来应对特定的馆藏发展问题主题，创建了一份相关期刊的模型排名列表。最后，通过将该模型与三个不同医疗保健机构的某些运营和环境因素相联系，他对馆藏进行了定制，以满足各机构各自的信息需求。
