The terms collection management and collection development can often refer to the same thing (though collection development sometimes focuses on 'selection and aquisition'), selection, acquisition, evaluation, preservation and deselection/weeding (from the Kennedy text).
School Collections need to be relevant to that school. The teacher librarian needs to communicate with staff and students to ensure she obtains what is needed.
The resources need to be up to date with the learning that needs to occur, as well as up to date technologically, and the TL needs to be able to support staff and students in obtaining and using them.
