The distinction usually made is between a Collection Development policy, which
outlines what categories of material the institution collects, why it collects
it, and the internal procedures for acquiring new material and a Collection
Management policy which really takes up where the Collection Development policy
leaves off, describing such procedures as registering objects, documentation
of the collection, inventories, conservation, etc. -- in short, the procedures
for dealing with the collection once it has been acquired.
I hope this helps.
With every good wish,
Steven
