This book, first published in 1990, examines the relationship
between sci-tech materials and trade literature, commonly called
manufacturers' catalogues. Because very little has been published
about the value and nature of trade literature in regard to
sci-tech libraries, this volume is important in informing
librarians about a little-known segment of the larger picture of
sci-tech information sources, thus adding to the value of their
services to their clients. It addresses the problems of handling
sci-tech trade literature in a corporate technical library, a large
public library, and a government library devoted to American
history. Experts offer practical advice on selecting and organizing
trade literature and on managing the growth and extent of a
collection of trade literature. They discuss modern literature and
older publications, which often have great historical value.
Libraries that collect both old and new materials are identified,
as are publishers of trade literature. The book also focuses on how
a publisher of classic trade literature views its role.
