White's previously published articles and speeches (most
presented after 1989) identify and address critical issues that
range from library education, funding, and leadership to
technology, ethics, and burnout. Although often delivered with
humor, White's probing and sometimes controversial commentaries on
the opportunities and dangers to the profession are certain to
provoke serious thought. Divided into three sections, the book
covers "Librarians, Their Self-Image, and the Perceptions That
Define Their Preparation"; "Librarians and Their Role, As Defined
by Them and by Others"; and "Librarians in the Cruel World of
Politics and Money." The author introduces each section with
general comments. A must for the library professional shelf and a
useful supplementary text for management and issues courses in
library schools.
