Business information is in strong demand by a wide range of library
patrons. Academic librarians must meet the needs of undergraduates,
graduates, and faculty who require information about businesses for
their coursework and research; school librarians must deal with
sophisticated financial questions from students in a variety of
classes; public librarians must provide investors and job seekers
with information about financial trends, prospective employers, and
particular industries; and special librarians must provide their
users with immediate and current data about clients, competitors,
and markets. Business information is available in various forms,
such as print sources, CD-ROMs, and on-line databases, and is
particularly volatile, with the news of the morning often being
more in demand than the news of the week before. The wide range of
patron needs, product types, and constantly changing data makes
managing business collections a particularly complex and demanding
responsibility. This management guide provides a wealth of
information to assist librarians who are new to managing business
collections. Chapters written by expert contributors survey such
topics as planning, financial and personnel concerns, and
facilities management; the selection, acquisition, cataloging,
classification, processing, and preservation of print and
electronic material; and the provision of access, reference, and
information services to both internal and external user
communities. A selected annotated bibliography concludes the
volume.
