Public librarianship is a constantly changing field, and the
direction of its development depends on theoretical and applied
research. This book examines many of the research needs in public
librarianship and discusses appropriate strategies to meet those
needs. The chapters, written by active researchers in the public
library field, reflect a variety of issues and opinions. Included
are chapters on the evaluation of collections, community awareness
of the library as an information source, models for library siting,
and communication between librarians and public library educators.
Recommendations for further investigations provided by the
researchers identify possibilities for increasing knowledge in this
field, and a bibliographic essay organizes and summarizes much of
the work discussed in the text.
