The Collection Development course was a great fit for me. I work in a library in Brazil, and I needed to update my skills and knowledge in collection development. The course covered a wide range of topics, from collection analysis to vendor relations. I found the course materials to be relevant and useful, and the instructor was knowledgeable and responsive. One thing that stood out to me was the emphasis on community engagement and outreach - it's an area I hadn't considered before, but now I see how important it is for building a strong collection. The course was well-organized, and the online format worked well for me. My only suggestion would be to include more examples from different regions and countries, but overall, I'm happy with the course and would recommend it to others.
