Library and Information Studies for Arctic Social Sciences and
Humanities serves as a key interdisciplinary title that links the
social sciences and humanities with current issues, trends, and
projects in library, archival, and information sciences within
shared Arctic frameworks and geographies. Including contributions
from professionals and academics working across and on the Arctic,
the book presents recent research, theoretical inquiry, and applied
professional endeavours at academic and public libraries, as well
as archives, museums, government institutions, and other
organisations. Focusing on efforts that further Arctic knowledge
and research, papers present local, regional, and institutional
case studies to conceptually and empirically describe real-life
research in which the authors are engaged. Topics covered include
the complexities of developing and managing multilingual resources;
working in geographically isolated areas; curating combinations of
local, regional, national, and international content collections;
and understanding historical and contemporary colonial-industrial
influences in indigenous knowledge. Library and Information Studies
for Arctic Social Sciences and Humanities will be essential reading
for academics, researchers, and students working the fields of
library, archival, and information or data science, as well as
those working in the humanities and social sciences more generally.
It should also be of great interest to librarians, archivists,
curators, and information or data professionals around the globe.
