With changes in the economy and in demography, college admissions officers need to target new populations and familiarize themselves with new developments that impact the enrollment pool. This important reference assembles nearly 1,000 citations for literature related to all aspects of undergraduate college admissions in the United States, including admissions to community colleges, four year colleges, and universities. Citations are provided for books, book chapters, journal articles, dissertations, and ERIC microfiche. No time limit was placed on the materials, and older works are included for those interested in historical research. Popular handbooks on how to get into college are omitted.

The work begins with a preface that discusses its scope and organization and an introduction that briefly summarizes the history of college admissions in the United States. The bibliographic entries that follow are arranged in topical chapters devoted to general admissions, marketing and recruitment, admissions offices and officers, and foreign admissions. Nearly every citation is accompanied by a short descriptive annotation. Detailed author and subject indexes conclude the work.

This bibliography brings together in one comprehensive volume citations of books, dissertations, theses, and ERIC microfiche relating to the history of specific institutions of higher education worldwide. All types of postsecondary institutions--two years colleges, liberal arts colleges, seminaries, specialized institutions, and universities--are included. Entries include the following elements when available: author/editor, title, place of publication, publisher, publication date, and number of pages. Citations from 85 countries are included. Entries are by country, dependency, and territory. The United States has been further divided by state. Names of institutions are in English. References are in the language in which they were written. The majority of the citations should be available in a library somewhere in the United States. Obscure sources that may be difficult to obtain have been included because they are often the only citation. All editions of a title as well as older works are included because of their potential value to a researcher. The book should be a part of all college, university, and large public library collections. College of Education faculty members specializing in higher or comparative education will find much of value here.

A duo of university reference librarians compiled this handbook to answer questions such as What are the school colors of the University of New Mexico?' What is the nickname of Syracuse University's athletic teams?' What are the words to the alma mater of Merrimack College?' and What is the title of Baylor University's yearbook?' . . . . When a reference librarian faces a question of the sort posited above, this is the source to turn to. "Wilson Library Bulletin"
