f.1 collection, set, array, assemblage.2 collection.3 collection, array, panoply.* * *1 collection* * *noun f.* * *SF collectiones de colección — Méx it's a collector's item
* * *a) (de sellos, monedas, cuadros) collectionb) (fam) ( gran cantidad)c) (Lit) collectiond) ( de modas) collection* * *= aggregation, collection, congeries, holdings, information store, library, stock, document collection, assemblage, repertory, collection, cache, deposit collection, harvest, picking, collecting, line-up, menagerie.Ex. We should realize that a library is not simply an aggregation of discrete recorded materials; rather, it represents a collection, or more precisely collection of works.Ex. A collection is two or more independent works or parts of works by one or more than one author published together and not written for the same occasion or for the publication in hand = Una colección son dos o más obras o partes de obras independientes de uno o más autores publicadas juntas y que no ha sido escritas para la misma ocasión o para la publicación en cuestión.Ex. To be sure, it still has its congeries of mills and factories, its grimy huddle of frame dwellings and congested tenements, its stark, jagged skyline, but its old face is gradually changing.Ex. A union catalogue then is, a catalogue listing in one sequence the holdings or part of the holdings of two or more libraries.Ex. It is obviously impracticable to search the entire information store in the satisfaction of a particular request for information.Ex. A library is no longer constrained to choose either a classified or a dictionary catalogue.Ex. The second function of the catalogue is concerned with the housekeeping activity of keeping a record of the library stock.Ex. Finally, the tacit assumption so far has been that we are dealing with a single document collection.Ex. Ranganathan illustrates how these Main Subjects have developed by loose assemblage, dissection, denudation, distillation, etc..Ex. Thousands of songs and piano pieces have been published in magazines issued throughout Europe and the Americas, yet an overall history is lacking for this large repertory of music.Ex. While there are a profusion of techniques in existence to gain access to the collections, there is no uniform system.Ex. It is known that there were books made from bamboo and wood during the Shang dynasty (1766-1122 BC) but none remain today except caches of oracle bones.Ex. In many instances it is the ward sister who administers the deposit collection left by the local library.Ex. The article is entitled 'Bountiful harvest: aquaculture and agriculture information services for the Pacific'.Ex.

information store, library, stock, document collection, assemblage, repertory, collection, cache, deposit collection, harvest, picking, collecting, line-up, menagerie.Ex: We should realize that a library is not simply an aggregation of discrete recorded materials; rather, it represents a collection, or more precisely collection of works.
Ex: A collection is two or more independent works or parts of works by one or more than one author published together and not written for the same occasion or for the publication in hand = Una colección son dos o más obras o partes de obras independientes de uno o más autores publicadas juntas y que no ha sido escritas para la misma ocasión o para la publicación en cuestión.Ex: To be sure, it still has its congeries of mills and factories, its grimy huddle of frame dwellings and congested tenements, its stark, jagged skyline, but its old face is gradually changing.Ex: A union catalogue then is, a catalogue listing in one sequence the holdings or part of the holdings of two or more libraries.Ex: It is obviously impracticable to search the entire information store in the satisfaction of a particular request for information.Ex: A library is no longer constrained to choose either a classified or a dictionary catalogue.Ex: The second function of the catalogue is concerned with the housekeeping activity of keeping a record of the library stock.Ex: Finally, the tacit assumption so far has been that we are dealing with a single document collection.Ex: Ranganathan illustrates how these Main Subjects have developed by loose assemblage, dissection, denudation, distillation, etc..Ex: Thousands of songs and piano pieces have been published in magazines issued throughout Europe and the Americas, yet an overall history is lacking for this large repertory of music.Ex: While there are a profusion of techniques in existence to gain access to the collections, there is no uniform system.Ex: It is known that there were books made from bamboo and wood during the Shang dynasty (1766-1122 BC) but none remain today except caches of oracle bones.Ex: In many instances it is the ward sister who administers the deposit collection left by the local library.Ex: The article is entitled 'Bountiful harvest: aquaculture and agriculture information services for the Pacific'.Ex: The most
