What is a Reference Book
Dear Forum members
What is the policy to make a REFERENCE COPY in any Academic or other Library?
- Is it the first copy of Title?
- Is it a Costly Book?
- Is it a rare collection?
- Is it a textbook (one book reference)?
- The book cost decided by the library the cost do not below form Rs. 1000/-?
- or any local rules decided by the library?
Can you please give me the right answer.
Thanks
