The 30th volume of Advances in Librarianship acknowledges changes
in the profession over three and a half decades, while continuing a
tradition of identifying new trends and innovations. The
contributing authors were invited especially to celebrate the
history of the past thirty-six years by reflecting, as appropriate,
on advances made in their topic since the first volume of the
series was published in 1970.
The twelve chapters in this volume can be loosely grouped into four
sections reflecting basic themes in librarianship: tracing issues
in communication: relevance and freedom of expression; focusing on
library services and resources; tailoring services to different
user groups; and educating the profession for the future. Together
these offer a milestone in the retrospective view of advances in
librarianship.
*Examines changes and developments over the past three decades
*Four sections: Tracing issues in communication: Relevance and
Freedom of Expression, Focusing on library services and resources,
Tailoring services to different user groups, and Educating the
profession for the future
Critically acclaimed since its inception, "Advances in
Librarianship" continues to be the essential reference source for
developments in the field of libraries and library science.
Articles published in the serial have won national prizes, such as
the Blackwell North America Scholarship Award for the outstanding
1994 monograph, article, or original paper in the field of
acquisitions, collection, development, and related areas of
resource development. All areas of public, college, university,
primary and secondary schools, and special libraries are given
up-to-date, critical analysis by experts engaged in the practice of
librarianship, in teaching, and in research.
