The April 1995 _Against the Grain_ includes excellent articles
by Anthony Ferguson of Columbia: "Interesting Problems Encountered
On My Way to Writing an Electronic Information Collection
Development Statement", and Carol Harker of Ebsco: "Collection
Development for Electronic Materials."  These two articles are
the best, concise summary that I have seen of the factors to
be considered.
