%X At the Charleston Library Conference your Insights Editors were intrigued to read a presentation abstract which stated: ¡®¡°A library collection should fit the mission for which it is created. The number of books it holds does not determine its worth.¡± (E J Loveland, 2000). If so, how do we create a national library and how do we build its collection from scratch without making many mistakes?¡¯ We went along to the presentation and were privileged to meet Henry Owino and Katarzyna Dudek, who talked about their involvement in the project to develop a collection for the Qatar National Library (QNL), which is due to be opened shortly. Their presentation focused on their three years¡¯ experience of selection, acquisition and processing of library materials in order to achieve the Opening Day Collection
