Models of academic libraries are reviewed. The first type is to support completeness of library collection development, the second one is oriented toward acquiring only those publications that are currently demanded by library users. This approach is positioned as “the targeted acquisitions”. The authors focus on this model and emphasize that it does not meet the tasks of academic libraries collection development and rather is to support research projects and programs which is important. This model is examined as a case study of the RAS Library for Natural Sciences.
