It covers multi-disciplinary subject areas to fulfill the information needs of DRDO scientific community. This paper tries to evaluate the implementation of DRDO e-journals, coverage of publishers and titles, subject-wise distribution of titles among DRDO laboratories, need of e-journal consortium among the labs, and expenditure details along with yearly growth. This is one of the unique consortiums implemented that is based on subscription model.The study also highlights the usage of e- journals publisher-wise in the consortium and would be helpful in efficient collection development policy of e-journals.</p>

The University

Collection development is a core activity that has the task of holding and expanding collections in terms of collections in a library. The purpose of developing a collection is to expand and obtain a up-to-date collection. The University of Gajah Putih Takengon  Aceh Tengah Library is a private university library that functions as an information institution to support the implementation of the Tri Dharma Perguruan Tinggi. In supporting the implementation of the Tri Dharma Perguruan Tinggi and fulfilling the information needs of its users, libraries need to develop collections and formulate collection development policies. This paper examines the stages of the collection development process at the Gajah Putih Takengon University Library  Aceh Tengah regency and the collection development policy. This research uses qualitative methods with a descriptive approach. Data collection obtained through observation, interviews and literature study. The results showed that the stages of the collection development process at the Gajah Putih Takengon University Library Aceh Tengah regency were carried out simply without using a written collection development policy. In addition, the minimum number of librarians and budget is a logical factor for libraries in carrying out collection development activities.

Development Activity

As discussed in the literaturę, more and more transnational corporations (TNCs) were attaching importance to research and development (R&D) activity from the 1970s through the 2000s. This growing involvement of TNCs in R&D resulted in their dominant role in global R&D expenditure. Indeed, a comparative analysis of financial data collected for the group of the 102 largest corporate R&D spenders worldwide in 2007 showed that this group of TNCs accounted for a significant share of the worlds R&D expenditure not only in 2007 alone but also in the period of 2000-2011. Moreover, a similarity between their home countries and the countries being top R&D spenders was found; however, most of these corporations were conducting their R&D at international level. Furthermore, the analysed TNCs operated mostly in technology-intensive industries, for which the foun- dations were provided by a multidisciplinary science and technology basis.
