Answer
Correct Answer: addition
Explanation
Given data
- We describe a new item joining a collection (library).
Concept/ApproachAddition = something added to an existing set. Edition = a particular version of a book. Additive = a substance added to something else (chem./food). Adjunction = the act of joining (rare in everyday usage).
Option analysisaddition — correct collocation: “a useful addition to our library.” ✅edition — wrong meaning (version/printing).additive — wrong part of speech/semantic field.adjunction — overly technical; not idiomatic here.
