     summary: If w e find many cases like that of the professor just men- tioned, w e may reconsider our decision that the indexes noted for the students w e r e already so familiar to the faculty that they might be omitted f r o m their handbook.

     summary: If the past decade has offered to this imperfect world convincing evidence of the wisdom of the old adage, it is perhaps equally important that we accept as a corollary its reverse and devote ourselves now to the proposition that in time of war we should prepare for peace.

     summary: T h e workshop came into existence in the summer of 1936, when at Ohio State University a group of thirty-five experi- enced teachers met for six weeks for a curriculum in science and mathematics for the high school under the aegis of the Eight-Year Study of the Commission on the Relation of School and College of the Progressive Education Association. T h e workshop method seems most use- ful in two situations, the first being that of the experienced teacher who comes back to college to complete study for a bache- lor's degree or to do graduate work after years in the classroom.

T h e plan is sufficiently flexible to cover the many variations in library organizations which exist even in institutions of com- parable size and function.

The university librarian urged that the funds available for these two positions be utilized to secure one individual to take charge of both dental and pharmacy libraries, that the pharmacy cata- loger assume responsibility for dental library cataloging as well, and that the balance of the money available be used for a clerk- typist to assist the cataloger.

     summary: Unfortunately, this auditorium for the last two years has had to be used for other purposes, but once it is again available, 31 the hope is to resume its use for group meet- ings, for forums, and for other activities of community, public library, and college interest. Several results are immediately apparent: the increase of the available book and periodical collections to include the holdings of the public library; the fact that the public library reading rooms offer additional space; the increase of trained help by public library assistants in securing materials.

     summary: Many libraries indicated that they would like to receive government documents and books but most stated that they were interested primarily in periodicals. The plan de- cided upon was for libraries to exchange periodicals on a piece-by-piece basis, with no definite effort being made to have each library give as much as it received, or v1ce versa.

     summary: When this expected trend of greater use materializes, it will be quickly felt among reference librarians, for there are certain special reasons why readers need technical assistance in finding Russian books in a far larger than normal proportion of cases. The latter solution is in line with our expectation that Russian books will become less and less a special preserve and more and more used for their subject content by persons other than Slavic specialists, but it gives rise to a number of problems. ·.

     summary: Ancient and out-of-date maps will assume a new importance in his concep­ tion of history, and the present world conflict, with its inevitable geographic upheavals, will be seen as merely another chapter in Mr. Wroth's story, which is the very ancient, uni­ versal struggle for world conquest, the history of which can best be understood by means of maps and charts. As the story unfolds we learn how rumor was followed by exploration, which in turn led to maps and charts, crude and distorted at · first, subjects of bitter con­ troversies and disastrous voyages, until grad­ ually the facts were sifted to form the basis of accurate documents on which navigators and potentates could depend.

     summary: Brief reviews of the establishment and mean­ ing of the university centers led quickly to discussions of research work done in the South, the relative strength of supporting university libraries, the wasteful duplication of acquisitions and unwise competition, and, ultimately, the inadequate financial support of college and university libraries within the region. If the South is to build and maintain ade­ quate university libraries for advanced in­ struction and research, it must, as Library Resources and Graduate W or_k recommends, make use of every opportunity for concerted library action, especially on the upper levels.

     summary: Even no~ many books are being pub- lished and many plans are being laid for the immediate resumption of a free and vigorous publishing campaign as soon as postwar conditions will allow it. The British dominions are a magnificent field for British books, but the tour of British publishers through Canada in 1943 showed not only that British editions were difficult-and in many cases impossible-to obtain but that the small type and wartime format forced upon publishers by present conditions had op- erated adversely to England and in favor of books published in the U njted States.

     summary: The duties ·of the lVIicrocard Committee shall be: a. to set a standard size, weight, and quality of cards for microcards, a standard microcard text format, and a standard mi- crocard catalog entry and abstract format b. to establish a standard scheme of mi- crocard catalog author and classification headings and standardized rules for inter- filing them c. to help libraries gradually to work out an allocated coverage of publishing fields in accordance with accepted library classifica- tion practice, in the hope that by such allocation a large number of cooperating libraries (or other publishing agencies) may ultimately assume joint responsibility for microcard reprod'-:lction without overlapping or duplication, so far as copyright may per- mit and scholars and libraries may request such reproduction d. to issue lists of those libraries (or other agencies) volunteering to undertake the publication of microcards for library use; which lists shall, among other things, state the subject fields or materials for which the said libraries volunteer to assume microcard sponsorship e. to seek information concerning, and to report on the value of, microcard ma- terials and equipment offered for library use f. so far as may be within its proper powers, to encourage uniform and equitable methods in the interlibrary interchange of microcards g. to insist, in every way properly pos- sible, upon the bibliographic staQdardiza- tion of the details of microcard text and headings, and of their size, format, etc., to the end that all microcards intended for library use may be immediately inte~filable by any receiving library in one single filing · arrangement, without that library's being burdened with any unnecessary expense of bibliographic adaptation · h. in general, to assist in every proper way in the efficient and orderly develop- ment of microcard issuance for scholarly use. Comment: By definition microcards are catalog cards plus the text cataloged.

     summary: Despite every effort to advance national unity, particularly in the early days of the republic, through the achievement of cultural independence, American life in almost all of its phases, economic, political, and social, has always been fundamentally derivative. Recognizing that such a treatment can have no pretense to finality, the editor of the volume here re- viewed speaks with a disarming candor of his objectives: to seek merely to define the prob- lem, to describe the basic forms of cultural impact and assimilation, to trace something of their history in American life, and to sur- JANUARY, 1946 95 vey or illustrate their more manifest effects (p. vi).

     summary: In this sense, Chapter II, which deals with the theory of general educa- tion, is the most important of the six, since it defines general education as contrasted with special education, describes its nature, and makes clear the function it is to perform in a democratic society. The sugges- tions for Harvard College take the form of definite curricula that require ( i ) the pursuit of a given number of courses in general edu- cation not previously offered and (2) the modification of other courses previously given that will emphasize general education as well as special education, to which they have here- tofore been largely devoted.

     summary: Less emphasis will be placed on library housekeeping functions and more on the professional aspects of the li- brary. This type of building will permit the library to do everything it can think of now and will also, since the interior will be flexible and adapt- able, meet the needs of the university for a long time to come.

     summary: And we cannot expect library school graduates to possess strong subject specialization and real scholarship, even in face of an unfilled de- mand for such people, because the library schools generally do not develop such charac- teristics in their students, in part due to the fact that programs of instruction are insuf- ficiently integrated with the offerings of other departments on the campus. It makes sense to say that we ought to turn to terminal education to provide trained personnel to take care of the routine operations of our libraries, just as we ought to exploit high schools, manual training schools, and filing schools for clerical workers of various kinds.

     summary: Despite the fact that a few innovations in survey technique are observable here, it must be admitted that surveys are very much alike —unless, as already mentioned, one has a particular interest in the library being sur- veyed. The criticism has been advanced that the literature of library surveys, relatively new as it is, has already fallen into a r u t ; that each new survey merely repeats the same old patterns; and that if you have read one, you have read all.

     summary: Of the factors which have set university education back, one, the author states, is the loss to research of many of the more mature faculty members who, misled by a misguided patriot- ism, had entered the armed forces or had engaged in some kind of war work. This has produced the dilemma about which Sigerist feels deeply, for unless a solution is found, the researchers will desert the universities and these, because university education be- comes sterile the moment it is divorced from research, will become educational mills im- parting second-hand knowledge (p. 62).

     summary: 167P. In the fall of 1944 it was anybody's guess whether the boom in book buying would con- tinue after the war, decline gradually, or collapse. Faced with shortages of material and personnel and with the prospect of heavily rising costs, the book industry, in order to protect its heavy investment in plants and organization, needed facts about book reading and book buying upon which to base accurate estimates of future market trends.

Interesting as many of the details are in this section, its ineffective organization and incompleteness make it less important (and useful to librarians) than the latter half of the book, which is given over to a two-part bibliography—the much larger first part to little magazines, the second to the fellow travelers of little magazines—and a first-rate index.

     summary: By main- taining myriads of departmental libraries, fraternity and dormitory libraries, browsing rooms, and instructors' working collections, we earn the same kind of condescending gratitude that faithful servants receive from their employers. It comes from librarians who have left their positions for a year or two to engage in graduate study and research; it comes from instructors in library schools; it comes from professional leaders who have managed to liberate themselves from the administrative details of their work and perhaps have been able to command the assistance of a staff member or two in their productive resean;h; it comes from that small group of inex- haustibles whom no vocational load could prevent from doing sustained intellectual work.

It were as if college librarians did not normally exhaust themselves in setting things up right for the teaching program as well as in helping students complete the teaching process only started in most class- rooms.

We have no thought of attempting to start a new library school, neither do we believe that proposals like ours will make library schools obsolete.

     summary: The clientele of public libraries does not usually include scientists who hope to obtain from such libraries access to special source material of the kind found in current science periodicals, comprehensive encyclo- pedias, and the like.

     summary: If, today, the Depart- ment of State operates American libraries abroad by the score, it is largely because the A.L.A. helped to demonstrate both the need and the means of meeting it. The fact that American library cataloging has encoun- tered a crisis and that there is very wide- spread dissatisfaction with American library schools, does not mean that foreigners can- not profit by learning American methods and enduring American instruction in li- brarianship.

     summary: The use of assistant directors in the Columbia libraries is explained by a desire to keep the span of control for the unified organization within manageable limits and 'the desire, at the same time, to have the strength of the combined staff measure up to the equivalent of the strength of two staffs if they stood separately, one for the libraries and one for the school of library service. The second stage was one when the director of libraries was also the dean of the school of library service and when he was sup- ported on the library sine by a libnrian in direct charge of the daily operations of the libraries.

     summary: Based upon the experience gained through centralized purchasing in connec- tion with the Carnegie Corporation grants to college libraries, it is not too much to hope a cooperative organization of this kind could be highly profitable and, after a period of operation, would be able to give the same schedule of discounts and still have a surplus for bibliographical projects. Howe~r, many libraries now buy through a deafer rather than direct from the publisher.

The fact of the matter is that, although pamphlet material is not primarily reference material, the unit pamphlet may be desig- nated or referred to.

     summary: Although this type of survey has apparently come into fairly common use by administrative officers of large libraries, the reports prepared as a result of these studies are seldom made available in published form, and are not widely known. T h e reports have now been made available because it appeared that many of the problems faced at Columbia are not unlike those to be found in other large university library systems, and hence the solutions proposed by the surveyors for Columbia might be considered to have applications in other institutions.

     summary: Although this type of survey has apparently come into fairly common use by administrative officers of large libraries, the reports prepared as a result of these studies are seldom made available in published form, and are not widely known. These are matters which commend themselves to the graduate library schools, but there is some doubt that libraries can await the neces- sarily slow processes of such agencies.—Donald Coney, University of California Library, Berkeley.

     summary: 2 Last winter the writer made such an ex- amination of acquisition work in ten eastern college libraries to discover what procedures for the book purchasing are cur- rently employed, what results are obtained, what routines may be designated as the most satisfactory, and what differentiation, if any, is made in college libraries between profes- sional and nonprofessional functions of the acquisition department. If the error in esti- mating was comparable in other libraries, there is validity in the suggestion made in the quotation with which this paper opened.

     summary: As a result of the survey, Dr. Kuhlman recommended the organization of the North Texas regional libraries with a coordinator or director ; the mimeographing of a union list of serials; the expansion of the serial resources through planned, cooperative pur- chasing; cooperative acquisition of addi- tional reference and bibliographic tools; a regional program for collection of govern- ment documents, newspapers, and manu- script collections; a union catalog of books; proper financial support; systematic plan- ning for the strengthening of library re- sources; and local coordination of libraries. One of the recommendations which has borne fruit is that calling for greater local cooperation in utilizing library resources.

     summary: The evidence in these reports indicates that standards for junior college libraries need to be raised in other official accreditation regions and in California. According to a Nov. 22, 1947, re- lease from the U. S. Bureau of Labor Sta- tistics, the rise in food prices has brought the food index for September 1947 to 203.5 per cent of the 1935-39 average.10 These conditions are directly responsible for the considerable turnover of staffs in junior college libraries.

     summary: The following are some of the advantages claimed by the inventor as compared with earlier methods of microfilm documenta- tion: (a) the saving of storage space occu- pied by cut film as compared with that required for cinefilm, and the possibility of filing cut film in card drawers and using it in a vertical file; (b) the possibility of binding or framing cut film and of mailing it in letter envelopes; (c) the greater ease of referring to individual pages than is pos- sible on 35mm. cinefilm, and the resulting saving of wear and tear; (d) the great resistance of glass to heat and deteriora- tion, when glass plates, in particular the unbreakable kind, are used in lieu of film; (e) the protection which can be given to color film by keeping it between glass; (f) the simple operation, compactness, and low cost of the reading machine, which ma,ke it suitable for home use. This allows the reproduction of more than I I square feet, corresponding to about I 5 newspaper- pages or I 50 pages of a reference book of customary size, plus extra space for the title, on one piece of cut film.

     summary: It can scarcely be denied that regional uni- versities will tend to minimize the growth of state universities in certain directions, a limitation which will be shared by li- braries. The exact effect of a regional develop- ment on existing state universities depends on the scope and character of new institu- tions.

     summary: From a detailed study of the sug- gestions made by the board at the midwinter meeting and of other points, the committee decided to recommend that the board appro- priate sufficient funds to poll the membership on the question of whether or not they would be willing to pay increased dues so as to receive College and Research Libraries auto- matically as a part of A.C.R.L. membership and that, dependent upon a favorable answer to this question, the board institute the neces- sary proceedings for making changes in the A.L.A. Constitution to allow for such action. Bulletin and issuing divisional quarterlies, the committee refrain from polling A.C.R.L. membership as sug- gested in their report to the board on June 14; that all libraries subscribing to more than one copy receive the additional sub- scriptions at a reduction of fifty cents for each subscription after the first; and that the committee receive an allotment of $6o for the purpose of furthering its work.

     summary: Ours is a democratic society, and from the days when the first white settler put foot on this continent to the present the concepts of human freedom and human betterment and happiness have been the · main roots of American democracy, though at times partially choked by the weeds of selfishness, corruption and crass material- Ism. The liberal arts should be the unifying and central element in higher education for citizenship and a professional career.

     summary: Emphasis should be, to quote once more from President McEwen's letter, on securing for college library staffs more men and women who are themselves edu- cators in some real sense, who are in college library work not because they are librarians, but because it is the library part of the college program which particularly appeals to them. Pres- ident McEwen is certainly correct in say- ing5 that any complete acceptance of college librarians as full colleagues must await proof that the librarians are genuine participants in the shared interests of the faculty in teaching and research.

This system has produced good libraries, but the. nature of their goodness changes.

     summary: In libraries having official catalogs, the alphabetical function of the in-process catalog will be assumed by both the official and public catalogs, for no library can any longer deprive its clientele of books just because they have not been permanently cataloged and classified, or justify the witholding of temporary cards from the public while at the same time providing them for th e use of the staff. Since this temporary card was a carbon copy of the Library of Congress card order it seemed entirely within the realm of possibility to type an extra carbon for filing into the public catalog.

     summary: I have had to reply that the filing of microcards, or for that matter the filing of any sort of catalog cards, was not practicable by any of the punched card systems with which I was familiar, and in the case of most of these letters I tried to explain why. Proponents of the mechanical filing of catalog cards have failed to realize at its full value the fact that all punched card systems were developed to be, and still are, sorting systems, not filing systems.

     summary: Therefore, and this argument is put for- ward by college libraries as well as by public libraries, the provision of much that is second rate and mediocre is necessary in order to lure the reader into the library. It does not rule out, for university libraries, the provision of many second-rate materials needed for research, analysis and compari- son.

     summary: We are indebted to Raymond Swank for a penetrating analysis of the two common ways of preparing a subject approach to library materials. Except for a certain breadth of approach, these two subjects are not as divergent as they might at first appear because analysis of the big problems of reference service indicates that they are directly related to the big problems of ref- erence and research libraries.

For it is true that most university libraries now recognize the tremendous importance of rare books not only for purposes of scholarship but also for their other values and this recognition has led our libraries to provide proper personnel (e.g. Wyllie and Alden) and sound, bibliographical protection for rare books.

     summary: Esp.ecially as library buildings approach their limits of size and manageability such matters grow mo r e and more pressing, and appear with greater persistence upon the door- steps of librarians. After treating broadly various considerations which bear upon the relation of an architect, it stresses skill, imagination, cooperativeness and in- tegrity as the all-important qualifications in an individual or firm , thus rating them above experience and expertness in the construction of library buildings.

It seems to me doubtful whether anyone could build up a coherent, reasonably complete pic- ture of the world of ancient books without consulting the studies of Birt, Sir E. M. Thompson, Sir Frederic G. Kenyon, Schubart, Wattenbach and the many other authorities in the field, and I am sure Mr. Pinner knows their work.

     summary: T h e problem of bibliographic control in the sciences is to make certain that when a scientist needs to know what has already been done and thought regarding any topic whatever, he can be given quickly the per- tinent references, not only those for material in his own library, but also for those appearing in any existing publication. T h e publication under review, however, is one which contains such a mine of information that it merits con- sideration and study.

     summary: Technical librarians soon recognized the gaps in their reference collection: ( 1 ) T h e r e was no com- prehensive meteorological bibliography being published anywhere in the world, and (2) there was no meteorological abstracting serv- ice comparable to those existing in nearly all the other fields of science. T h e first is to gather together and present for the specialist the progress which has been made in a whole subject during a period of time or to review the state of knowledge in a particular branch of a subject.

     summary: These include: T h e stratification of library education (and a correspondent strati- fication of library positions) ; general library education as opposed to specialized library education; preprofessional and postprofes- sional education; the quality and number of library schools; the academic point at which various types of library education should occur, and the length of various types of pro- grams; the relationship of library education to the field of practice; and the role of the Board of Education for Librarianship and other interested bodies. T h e flux of new thinking on library education has pro- vided a theme for innumerable books, pamph- lets, and periodical articles.

T h e problem of subject cataloging is con- siderably more complicated in Europe than it is in America for the average research li- brary simply because of the age of the hold- ings and the nature of the cataloging tradi- tions.

This was done to facilitate the preparation of the final composite evaluation report in which total insurable values have to be given by buildings due to the fact that the insurance rate varies with the degree to which the various structures are fire resistant.

     summary: Although we speak of the study of politics as political science, there is considerable difference of opinion among political scientists as to whether their scholarly discipline has actually reached the status of a science. Whether political science is as yet a full- fledged science or a science-in-the-making does not affect the fact that the reference library is the laboratory of the political scientist.

     summary: There are ideological considerations here which I do not wish to go into , but the reader might be interested in noting that the really tremendous increase in the sale of university press books in the last two decades has been in effect a means of gammg wide public financial support for scholarly publishing. Far too much power, for the public good, is exercised by this particular section of the country-in radio, television, magazines, newspapers, the theater, and book publishing.

     summary: Of special importance to college and reference librarians is the section on Postwar Problems, which is concerned with such matters as the distri- bution of books, the increase in the cost of books, censorship, and problems of reading. The Book in Ame-rica should be a constant source of information for librarians and all others interested in books and their makers.-Maurice F. Tauber, Columbia Uni- versity.

     summary: Such practical experience would make the college teacher aware of the problems which the stu- dents face in the use of library materials and would acquaint him with the problems which librarians and instructors must solve if the educational aims of the college are to be realized satisfactorily. Perhaps the most notable surprise in store for readers of this volume whose introduction to it comes only through its title is the ex- tensive consideration given to the selection of library materials (the 234 pages comprising Units I-III) as contrasted with the compara- tively little consideration given to the use of such materials in teaching (the 55 pages com- prising Units IV and V).

     summary: Working under Francis Wayland, a college president whose library consciousness was of highest order, Jewett traveled widely on book collecting expeditions, visiting libraries and librarians, learning of a great variety of library practice while he built up Brown University's bibliographical re- sources. Still another welcome sign is the growing emphasis on writing library history from broad source materials rather than from a compound of reminiscence as has been too often the woeful approach in this field.

     summary: The experience of most agencies and in- stitutions operating classified report libraries has evolved two successful methods for the administration and housing of a complete library service. Within the limits of restricted and confidential classifications, it could be demonstrated that participation of the university library would advance research and at the same time pro- vide for classified reports stronger security protection than the individual scientist op- erating by himself can give.

In a catalog as extensive as the one under con- sideration it would be helpful to have a measuring scale (in inches only) stamped on the outer right side or along the top edge of that side of each tray, to save the necessity of picking up and positioning a ruler, both in the process of estimating and of apportioning tray contents later.

     summary: EXPERIMENTATION in the Department of Agriculture Library over the last three years in the use of a camera for the perform- ance of clerical routines, such as follow-up on book orders, overdues, or missing issues of periodicals, indicated that this new tech- nique offers possibilities for simplification of library routines, and for improvement of library services through reduction of the amount of time which must be spent on these routines. In order to determine the size of library in which the equipment is justified 303 a small college library has been included as has a State Library Agency, which we hope will be able to test some small public library operations.

     summary: The attitude toward book jackets of private book collectors, who have played such an important role in buildin.g up the resources of libraries, has been fully dis- 1 Kohn, John S. Van E., Some Notes on Dust Jackets, Publishers' Weekly, 132:1732-35, October 30, 1937- cussed by Mr. Kohn. A number of libraries keep a selection of jackets for exhibition purposes, either to call attention to a group of books on a special subject, to an anniversary of a man or an event, or simply to illustrate booJc jacket design.

     summary: 394 COLLEGE AND RESEARCH LIBRARIES From all of this it becomes clear that both the librarians and the scholars are conscious of critical problems affecting research libraries. It is said that libraries will, and should, continue to be _as complete as their individual resources will permit, that they can solve the problem either at the national or regional level through co- operation ·in storage and acquisition, that inter- library loan is not an adequate substitute for immediate access, that the importance of im- mediate access is tangible but quantitatively and qualitatively unknown, that the solution is not one of contraction in collecting and services, but greater public recognition and support, that federal and industrial support of large research libraries may be a partial an- swer, that the relation of collections to bibli- ography-local, regional, national, subject-is important, but imperfectly understood.

     summary: [1948]): (I) what we don't 396 COLLEGE AND RESEARCH LIBRARIES know about professional education in each and all of its aspects far exceeds what we know; (2) the problems and possibly the solutions are not much different as between the profes- sions; ( 3) we may be expecting far too much to happen to a student in one, two or even three years of professional study even though in addition to four years of college; (4) the librarians have done no worse and may well be doing better than average for the profes- sions including those with a longer experience such as Law, Medicine, and Theology; ( 5) meaningful improvements are likely to come slowly and then only if the importance of the task is recognized by the profession as a whole and in terms of substantial time, effort and energy devoted to it.-Richard H. Logsdon, Columbia, University Libraries. This study of social work education was OCTOBER, 1952 done with the assistance of Alice L. Taylor, training consultant, Bureau of Public Assist- ance, Federal Security Agency, and in consul- tation with many others in the field of higher education in general and social work educa- tion in particular.

     summary: By using a Keysort card with double rows of punches on the margins, the library staff was able to code in- formation about the students' reading hab~ts that could later be translated into library reports to ·the faculty and administration as indications of the quality of service the library provided and of the effect of library use on the students' performance in class. Dr. McGaw's expressed in- tention (p.173) is to maintain the point of view that the marginal p~nched card system, wherever installed, should always be regarded as a means to an end-the end not of a nar- rowly-defined economy, but of optimum effi- ciency for the library staff and of optimum service to the library's clientele.

     summary: T h e advantages of the volume for library use, for supplementing geographical research, and in other more general uses, are practically self-apparent when one confronts the volume and need only be listed to be evident to the reader. Neither the annual cumulations nor such a collection as the present can ever supersede in general library usefulness such comprehensive bibliographies as the Cam- bridge Bibliography of English Literature, but scholars have found the annual period bibliog- raphy the most useful guide to recent publica- tion; even when a comprehensive bibliography is new, the period bibliography records (and often assesses) all publications too recent to have been incorporated in the proofs of the larger work.

     summary: The compiling of annual period bibliog- raphies within the field of historical and literary research is a noteworthy phenomenon of the last generation in America. Included in a single alphabet without analysis are page references to the names of scholar-authors of books and articles, the names of eighteenth-century figures dis- cussed, and some references to selected topical entries like Booksellers, Gothic, Plato, Primi- tivism, the Spectator, and Voyages.

     summary: A selection that included nonfiction as well as fiction might result in an average of about 40 books a year read on library time. However, if 40 books are multi- plied by the number of staff members in a given library, it is conceivable that a plan could be worked out whereby all the most noteworthy new books could be read by even a relatively small staff, provided that no two staff members would read the same book on library time.

     summary: As applied to library science the implication is that the small branch collection specializing in a particular science will either need to grow to an unwieldy and expensive size with much duplication of material in the central libraries and other branches or remain small and unsatisfactory. Having an administrator trained in science library work in charge of a university-wide science library service has many advantages.

     summary: Coordinate index terms should be simple. The samples described here were made on cards for manual coordination, divided into ten vertical columns according to the terminal digits of the numbers, a device expected to facilitate the coordination of numbers.3 3 A sixth assumption was this: The distribution of coordinate index terms into categories will facilitate both the cataloging operations and reference use.

     summary: T h e reasons which are JULY, 1953 317 given for this may be listed under headings such as ( i ) improved services, which include a better system of ordering and scheduling of films and improved techniques for keeping faculty informed of materials available; (2) more materials available in a larger number of fields, they can be obtained from nearby sources, quality is improved, the cost is less, and colleges have made more filmstrips and enlarged their slide collections; ( 3 ) physical equipment and facilities—new buildings have audio-visual facilities, equipment is better and there is more of it; (4) administration and faculty are more sympathetic toward the use of audio-visual teaching aids, they are more aware of the wide range available and of their value in instruction; too, more faculty mem- bers are prepared to use them; ( 5 ) more publicity given these materials, for coordina- tors and directors of audio-visual centers and librarians have carried on a continuous cam- paign to increase their use. T h e questionnaire was designed to gather information regarding audio-visual aids used, the subject fields in which used, selection of materials, the handling of those of which the library has charge, the records kept to facili- tate ordering, scheduling, lending of films and other materials, and suggestions for improve- ment of their present programs.

     summary: The strength of this book lies in the newness of the author's approach, his inquisitiveness about the reasons why printed books came into being in England ; what caused them to be written in the first place; how they got selected for publication; what the role of the patron was in this proc- ess; what the author got out of it; what social classes the readers of various types of printed books belonged to and what their education was; whether Church and State hindered or encouraged the booktrade and how and why; and many other related major and minor questions. It is proba- ble that the student of English literature and the bibliographer specializing in English books and printing will hardly miss references to the continental scene.

     summary: R O W E L L The Library Participates in Faculty Day Mrs. Rowell is chief catalog librarian, Brooklyn College Library. The chief catalog librarian, then defined classification and cataloging, and explained why both are necessary; how the materials acquired by Brooklyn College Library are or- ganized and cataloged, listed the steps taken to make the card catalog as responsive as possible to the needs of the undergraduates, and made mention briefly of the cooperative efforts made nationally by catalogers to share the results of their bibliographical research so that all users of the Library, student and faculty alike, are greatly benefited.

     summary: Mountainous as the data seemed when they had all been collected, there is no pretension that they constitute a complete picture of Federal services. Part I is to be devoted to an exposition of the poli- cies governing Federal services to libraries, and Part II (the main section of the book) will consist of an alphabetical listing by sub- ject of the services available to libraries from the government at the time the typescript went to press early in 1954.

If this were nothing more than a handbook of Farmington Plan practice, it would have even greater utility than the modest disclaimer in the Introduction which suggests that it may be of some use to Farmington Plan dealers and their advisers, to the sixty-two participating libraries, to those who wish to locate recent foreign books in order to borrow them or obtain photographic copies, and to others who are interested in library coopera- tion and resources for research.

     summary: It represents the experience of an ex- cellent library staff working in conjunction with a first rate liberal arts faculty in the determination of book selection policy and the actual selection of books. The method of book selection for the La- mont collection is described in some detail in an article entitled The Selection of Books for Lamont, by Edwin E. Williams.2 The subse- quent refinement of the original lists and the limitations and general coverage of the pres- ent Catalogue are briefly but simply set forth in the introduction to the Catalogue.

In other cases, variations from ALA rules and Library of Congress practice are indicated, with suggestions to catalogers in Catholic libraries for bringing these entries into conformity with Catholic usage, as for Biblical and Apocryphal Books of the Bible (though we note here that those Books not included in the Catholic canon would be treated as anonymous classics and entered under accepted names).

     summary: To write library history in terms of a changing pattern of library functions and objectives, and to relate those changes to the forces in our society which produced them would give to the evolution of the library as a social agency a new depth and meaning, but the study here reviewed does not provide the richness that it might have evinced. A Comment Anent Dr. Mortimer Taube's very inform- ative and entertaining review, in the October 1953 issue of C & RL of Henry Evelyn Bliss' Bibliographic Classification, I think it is about time that someone came to the defense of shelf classifications in libraries.

     summary: Li- brary school students equipped with this text, together with Constance Winchell's Guide to Reference Books for reference use, and M a r - garet Hutchins' fine Introduction to Reference Work, cited frequently in the reading lists, for a much more extended treatment of the principles and methods of reference work, are fortunate indeed. An introductory chapter, The Practice of Reference, treats very briefly the place of reference work in library organization, with definitions and explanations of the six com- ponent functions.

     summary: Because a library may be judged as su- perior or mediocre by its success or deficiency in public relations policies, and because the literature on this subject is found only oc- casionally in the form of journal articles or among the closing pages of books on library administration, it is necessary for those seek- ing enlightenment in this vital area to reach out to other fields and to their experts. For those students who find themselves, as many will, in school and small college or public libraries where subject departmentalization exists, if at all, to a very small degree, this introduction to some of the more generally useful reference sources both general and in subject fields, will form an excellent minimum basis or springboard from which to build and extend this knowledge.

     summary: When the author states, for example, that there is a growing relationship between com- pany profitability and understanding, with a subsequent increase in public relations think- ing, the librarian need only substitute In- creased Appropriations for Profitability and add Cooperation to Understanding to feel affected by the discussion of that sub- ject. The error made most frequently is to as- sume that public relations need only be used for matters warranting a newspaper story.

     summary: Since Mohrhardt's list appeared in 1937, and many of its entries are now out of print or out of date, librarians and teach- ers of junior colleges have been requesting a current compilation. Librarians, library school students, and members of li- brary school faculties should find it a most helpful guide.

     summary: Before a library ac- quires and processes an item it must de- termine whether the item is not already in the library, and before the item can be served to a reader it must be found in the catalog by the reader or someone else T h e objective requires a minimum of cataloging and some of those who advo- cate a finding-list catalog have this objec- tive solely in mind. T h e question which the college and university librarian must therefore decide is whether he would con- sider the catalog adequate if a student or member of the faculty looking for a work under a given name and title cited in some source would fail to find that the library has that work, or another edition of it, under another name of the author or under another title.

     summary: Since general books on the subject of cotton in a small library usually cover at least two of these facets, it is better for them to have the subject confined to one class, say 633.5, with the possible exception of straight bo- tanical works, which it probably won't have anyway. T h e Yale Club Library, for one, finds it difficult to use effectively the schedules for Economics of Industry (338.1-338.4).

     summary: Ivonrad Stollreither's Internationale Bib- liographic der juristischen Nachschlagewerke (Frankfurt a. M.: Vittorio Klostermann, 1955) is a bibliography that will have signifi- cance for general reference libraries as well as for law libraries as a result of the broad scope of jurisprudence as an academic dis- cipline in Europe. On the other hand, his list of catalogs of law libraries and his list of legal periodicals offer information not eas- ily obtained for all countries in the world.

     summary: The basic criticism of the Prussian In- structions, which gave rise to the demand for their revision, is that they were designed by grammarians for grammarians and that, whatever their merit may once have been, the principle of grammatical structure which underlies their method of catalog entry is not suited to present-day catalogers, present- day readers, and even present-day books. For aside from interpreting the instructions, Dr. Fuchs dis- cusses throughout the commentary many cataloging issues which every code must con- sider and resolve, and these discussions will benefit all who are interested in the prob- lem of cataloging generally and particularly all who are engaged in the preparation or revision of cataloging codes.

     summary: This doctoral research study is based on an analysis of literature in the field, a survey of current practice, and an experimental pro- gram of audio-visual education at the School of Librarianship of the University of Cali- fornia, and is presented primarily as a report to library schools. While recognizing the reluctance of a seg- ment of the library profession to assume re- sponsibilities in the uncharted waters of A-V, Dr. Lieberman's basic philosophy for academ- ic, public, and school libraries includes as essential the responsibility for acquiring, or- ganizing, administering, and stimulating use of all materials that record man's thought.

     summary: Although this investigation may not offer new information for our librarians who are rare book specialists, this reviewer believes that many of the younger members of the profession, particularly those who have had little experience with special collections and rare books, will find much useful information in Mr. Singer's six exploratory chapters. There have been brief articles on Australiana, Jack Lon- don a~ a Collectible Author, Eleven Ways to Spot a Forgery, Benjamin Franklin: American Book Collector, 1706-1956, and numerous others.

     summary: Ideas are the librarian's true stock-in-trade, and books, as the physical embodiment of ideas, are only incidental. Mr. Singer treats the many aspects of buying and selling rare books at auction and through the antiquarian shops, and pre- pared the study as a thesis in marketing at the University of Pennsylvania Graduate Divi- sion.

     summary: It should be evident, therefore, that unified bibliographical control over this variety of publishing forms is really the _ problem, and the difficulty is not caused by any form of informational freakish- ness which should force librarians or sci- entists to turn to machine storage in order to gain access to the material they need. Discussion as to the relative merits of card catalogs and storage machine fre- quently boils down to two capacities: high subject specificity and multiple sub- ject approach.

     summary: In 1951, pursuant to a recommendation of the Western German Librarians' Com- mittee on Dissertations and Microfilms (Verein Deutscher Bibliothekare, Kom- mission fiir Dissertations- und Mikro- filmfragen; chairman, Dr. Bauhuis), it was decided to change the distribution of the five copies as follows: two copies to the respective university library (one of them for interlibrary loan or for the respective Landesbibliothek), one copy to the Deutsche Bibliothek at Frankfurt/ Main as Western German center, one copy to the Deutsche Biicherei at Leip- zig as bibliographical center of all Ger- man dissertations, and one copy to the University Library at Berlin (East) as the historical collecting point for disser- tations. U nfor- tunately, not all Western German uni- versity libraries follow the recommended distribution, and therefore the Deutsche Bibliothek at Frankfurt/ Main does not receive all German dissertations.

     summary: Hope was strongly expressed that some kind of enduring tie might be formed with scholars of the West and that the ex- change of library materials might in- crease. The number of libraries in the Soviet 217 Union must be numbered in the thou- sands-~50,000, according to the British publication, The World of Learning.l Most of these are comparable to Amer- ican community and county libraries, but there are also large public libraries in each of the Republics, as well as great central repositories in Leningrad and Moscow.

     summary: In the last few years there has been some serious questioning of the expan- sion of university libraries, but at New York University it has been pointed out that un- questionably the over-all instructional pro- gram would be improved if better library fa- cilities were available. It would be unrealistic for this in- stitution to attempt to duplicate the largest libraries, but it is essential that there be suf- ficient books, seating and stack space, and professional library assistance to meet the needs of a varied and sound professional pro- gram.

     summary: Neither could we count on the same amount of initial interest and en- thusiasm, for though many women un- doubtedly give of their best whatever the prospect of matrimony, it would not be reasonable to expect that in the aggregate a group of women would have the same incentive as a group of men whose whole future depended on their efforts. But, alas, our British colleagues take a dim view of women in librarian- ship.

     summary: Its use as a checklist for evaluating and detecting gaps in book collections is outstanding since it contains three times as many titles as the Shaw volumes; furthermore, as Philip J. McNiff, librarian of the La- mont Library, notes in his introduction to it, the Lamont catalog has distinctive value as an actual, working list rather than an ideal, theoretical listing of books. The faculty has been responsible for Lamont book selection.

However, as evi- dence of growing awareness of the im- ' portance of such work, one might cite the following: (1) use of enlarged book budgets to build up holdings of dic- tionaries, encyclopedias, bibliogniphies, handbooks, and the like, and (2) plans to establish reference or reference-circu- lation positions as soon as possible in several libraries now lacking such posts.

     summary: These papers from the Graduate Library School Conference treat the subject of cata- log code revision from various points of view; the historical background (Ruth French Strout and Paul S. Dunkin), gen- eral considerations on the function and con- tent of catalog entries (Richard S. Angell), problems in applying catalog codes (Her- man H. Henkle and Benjamin A. Custer), the cost of cataloging (Raynard C. Swank), developments in other countries (Andrew D. Osborn and Arthur H. Chaplin), and the present state of code revision in the United States (Seymour Lubetzky and Wyllis E. Wright). The papers by Strout and Dunkin trace the history of catalog codes from 2000 B.c. to the present.

In summary, these papers provide a good background for, and review of, the main problems involved in catalog code revisiOn (particularly for the library school student and teacher), as given by recognized experts, although one looks in vain for a detailed consideration of the basic problems in- volved in the finding list vs. reference tool dilemma, a question which still has not been thoroughly discussed.

     summary: Some two pages of ideas for colleges and universities are presented in the Organization Handbook for Na- tional Library Week, reprints of which have been widely distributed. There are, of course, times for caution, but it would seem that the over- all objectives of National Library Week are so closely related to what college and research libraries are out to accomplish that we might safely venture, in larger numbers, to give it active support.

     summary: Approximately 4,030 dissertations on Romance studies from Ger- man universities (including Strassburg to 1918 and Austrian universities from 1938 to 1945) are listed according to a well-designed, detailed subject arrangement and indexed by author and subject. Though the authors do not say co- operate or smother, a credo is enunciated: It is the firm belief of the Subcommittee that many of the library problems of Co- lumbia University are similar to those of other large research libraries, and that local expedients alone will not solve them com- pletely.

     summary: In addition to university Romance publications, the bibliography includes ma- terials in the fields of philosophy, compara- tive literature, English studies, and German studies which contain sections relating to Romance studies. Americans engaged in research on any as- pect of Romance language or literature will find it worthwhile to examine Professor Flasche's Romance Languages and Liter- atures as Presented in German Doctoral Dis- sertations.

     summary: However, most of these find- ings, and the recommendations arising from them, will come as no surprise to those familiar with the results of other studies of catalog users. Other important results of the study: oral citations were the major source of references sought in the catalog; inexperience and un- familiarity with the catalog were frequent causes of difficulty; the number of search failures increased directly with the size of the catalog; divided catalogs failed only about half as often as dictionary catalogs; the subject part of the catalog was more dif- ficult to use, even for librarians, than the author-title parts; and cards under a given subject heading were usually selected by the patron according to date of publication rather than alphabetical position.

     summary: Other weaknesses would include the use of library staff members as interviewers, and having these interviewers consciously select their respondents according to their own in- dividual judgments as to the representative- ness of the sample being obtained. The educational backgrounds of 8,459 persons were examined, 1,491 pretested questionnaires were mailed and replies were received from approximately two-thirds of this group, fifty-one colleges and universities were selected for study, and five major fac- tors were identified which had influenced respondents for certain institutions to enter the library profession.

     summary: A partial answer at least is supplied by comparing three general studies (gen- eral as applying to many institutions and as opposed to the study of a particular library personnel program) included in this A C R L monograph: Gelfand's 1949 survey of library staffs in fifty eastern liberal arts colleges, Lundy's 1951 study of faculty status for li- brarians in thirty-five representative univer- sities, and Downs's 1957 survey, the most recent of its kind, of the current status of library staffs in 115 major universities. Dr. Downs's 1957 survey of librarian status in 115 leading universities shows that 54 per cent of the universities grant faculty status to librarians, with or without specific faculty ranking.

     summary: T h e chapter on the organization of research records is a notable exception in that it is more extensive than anything which has been seen by this reviewer thus far. T h e whole book—though perhaps, it is less a book than a series of papers—makes an eloquent appeal on behalf of the impor- tance of librarianship and its being highly regarded and intelligently rewarded by the institutions whom the librarians serve.

     summary: T h e fundamental problem in this type of approach to the problem of scientific com- munication is that it attempts to derive re- liable data from the consensus of a group that does not include specialists in the field in which they are being queried.

     summary: T h e research library building, consequently, was designed well into the 1930's (and in some instances into the '40's) as both inspiring symbol and cen- ter of bibliographical research activity. Prior to this date there had been avail- able for the use of the undergraduates, apart from the main reading room in the General Library and the numerous branch libraries, three reading rooms seating 489 students in crowded fashion, housing negligible collections of books, and staffed by library science students or other student assistants.

     summary: O W I N G INTEREST in developments within the Soviet Union in the past few years has stimulated unprecedented American desire to gain access to infor- mation printed in Soviet publications. These circumstances combined lead to the following situation: a large propor- tion of all U.S. scientists and engineers are interested in the content of Soviet publication in their fields, but only a small percentage of this large group can read Russian; conversely only a small proportion of social scientists and hu- manists are interested in following So- viet developments in their disciplines, but of those who are interested in get- SEPTEMBER 1959 347 ting at the content of Soviet publications a very high percentage can read Rus- sian.1 Despite the above generalizations which indicate an apparent greater need of natural scientists and engineers for translations from the Russian, there is nevertheless a rather heavy demand for translations on the part of faculty mem- bers and researchers in other fields.

     summary: T h e dean is the most important single factor in developing the collection and rendering reasonably satisfactory service—and this whether the library is autonomous (as most law school libraries are to some ex- tent) or integrated (as some of the largest and best are). This is a most important aspect of law library service, but no problem of organization should be in- volved: In many autonomous libraries the cataloging is farmed out to the gen- eral library.

     summary: McCarthy, director of libraries, Cornell University, and execu- tive secretary of A R L ; Frank B. Rogers, director, National Library of Medicine, Ei- leen Thornton, librarian, Oberlin College; and a representative of faculty interest in library building, to be designated. In a news release from the Council on Library Resources announcing the project, William S. Dix, librarian of Princeton Uni- versity and former executive secretary of A R L comments: Despite the huge sums involved in construction and equipment— a single university library building may cost several to many millions of dollars to build and equip—there is at present no compila- tion which can provide the planners of library buildings with the vast fund of avail- able information which should be brought to bear but which is now scattered.

     summary: T h e only logi- cal attempt at a solution is to concentrate on thoroughness of coverage in the type of material for which the volume will be most consulted (and this comment is only from the point of view of the university librarian) and to include others only in so far as time and expense permit. T h e in- creased interest in Soviet contributions to science, and the growth in the purchases of Russian books and the exchange activities between American and Russian libraries have created a desire for a thorough knowl- edge of the Soviet library system and the demand for a publication presenting a de- tailed and systematic description of Soviet libraries and bibliographic centers.

Part II, (pp. 163-287) consists of thirty-five translations of primary sources pertaining to Soviet libraries—such as ex- cerpts from organizational manuals, statisti- cal tables, classification tables, materials on training in librarianship, activities of the All-Union Book Chamber, and the wages of librarians.

     summary: T h e consultant will need to know how to find out which departments or colleges will use the library and where the center of gravity of this use will be; he will need to find the confluence of student traffic; he will need to study the campus master plan—where growth is to take place and to what extent; and he will need to be certain that the site plan is large enough to permit expansion and that it can be committed to library use. T h e consultant, in writing this part of the program, will try to follow the insti- tution's wishes and ideas if it has any, but more frequently he will be expected to tell the institutions about the best of the new ideas to be found in the newer libraries.

     summary: As a result of the demonstrated value of the published National Union Cata- log which began to appear in 1956 and of the fact that the 1952-1955 imprint file formed a compact, separate union catalog which would readily lend itself to efficient editing and publication, the Subcommittee on the National Union Catalog of the A L A Committee on Re- sources of American Libraries decided in 1959 to sponsor the publication of this 1952-1955 segment as a second step in the hoped-for undertaking which may some day give us the whole vast retro- spective National Union Catalog in con- venient printed form. T h e entries are not being checked for uniformity with the Library of Congress Catalog, though entries which obviously deviate from A L A cata- loging rules or Library of Congress prac- tice are being modified.

At the other end of the scale, Mr. Paradis's statement that Chief librarians of large libraries receive salaries of $7,000 to $12,000 or more is oddly restrained, even as of 1957.

     summary: The realistic facts of the problem of book selection in university libraries are: (1) no one person is competent to select individual titles on a broad general basis; (2) the volume of publication is so great that there must be some form of selection; (3) no library has the funds to acquire, the personnel to process, and the space to shelve everything that ap- pears; and (4) who can predict what may be significant for future research in the deluge of preserved information? These are but a few examples of the multiplicity of problems involved in book selection in university libraries.

     summary: Of Volume I of the Studies~ the chapter on The functional approach to bibliographic organization (reprinted from Shera and Egan, Bibliographic Organization~ NOVEMBER 1960 Chicago, University of Chicago Press, 1951), the chapter by C. D. Gull on Substitutes for the card catalog, and the chapter on Evalu- ation of information systems for report utilization, are still of great interest and usefulness. Among other things, it discusses the important concept of role indicators, which, from one way of looking at it, may be thought of as the coordinate indexing machine system answer to subhead- ings, which of themselves are irrelevant within the context of such systems.

     summary: Later adaptations utilized IBM punched transaction cards to further mech- anize the clearance of the record of books returned. I have the strong feeling, reinforced by the intellectual thrust of books such as those here under review, that we librarians would be well advised to have the vision and the good grace to find ways of admitting some of the lesser documentalist heresies into the body of library canonical doctrine.-Frank B. Rogers, National Library of Medicine.

     summary: The author expresses conviction that division of catalogs may lead to the harmonious shift to printed catalogs for subjects for older portions of the collec- tion; and similarly penetrating observations are made under the other topics discussed. As a consequence, three proposals are made for further study-one a statistical study of entry duplication in divided catalogs of vari- ous sizes; a second to test a three-way split into authors, subjects, and titles; and the third an experiment in the horizontal di- vision of the catalog by date periods.

     summary: M. Porcher associates the development of book painting in the Romanesque period with the state of learning in the monasteries, and in the Gothic period with the patronage of the nobility and a literate laity. The relation between book painting and other arts, such as ivory carving, enamel- ing, and stained glass windows, is presented -for example, the close resemblance be- tween a series of paintings in a 12th century Life of Christ in the Pierpont Morgan Li- brary and a window at Chartres.

Thus, the librarians with separate col- lections for federal documents tended strongly to that other types of documents should also be separate from the library's general collection.

     summary: T h e author has worked in both types of li- braries and believes, for what it is worth, that with respect to reference service also, the divisional system is an im- provement over the impossibly Utopian idea that reference librarians can, so to speak, cover the waterfront of modern knowledge, a waterfront which today extends into areas Lord Bacon never dreamed of. I F T O N B R O C K SA M U E L R O T H S T E I N , in his study en-titled The Development of Reference Services, has provided an admirable sur- vey of reference services as they have evolved in American public, special, and academic libraries.

T h e parochial li- braries organized in the American col- onies by the Rev. Thomas Bray, founder of the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel and the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge, were essentially package libraries, being more or less uniform, selected boxes of books sent over from England for the enlighten- ment of the pioneers in a new land.3 T h e r e was much interest in stimulat- ing the proliferation of social libraries in the last part of the eighteenth cen- tury.

     summary: i o n are t o l e r a n t in i n t e r p r e T h e r e seems little question, at any rate, that the college library, governed by those who are accurately informed of its ecol- ogy, cannot miss playing an increasingly vital role in the process of educating col- lege students.

     summary: T h e r e was a general tour for students in the beginning English course (Rhetoric 102) and, in addition to this basic in- troduction, some departmental librarians serving the various professional colleges provided instruction in library use for their specific fields—occasionally in for- mal courses and upon invitation from specific faculty members, but more often through personally conducted tours of their own special libraries. 2. T h e r e are no technical details which cannot be met by adequately plan- ning the use of this medium.

     summary: T h e r e is no need for a review of the literature, for Bonn has surveyed the literature thoroughly.3 T h e r e is the possibility that the unit on the use of the library is sandwiched in at the most opportune time without regard for the sound educational philosophy of pre- senting the instruction when it will be more beneficial to the students.

     summary: Of course, problem books (for example, books with- out Library of Congress cards, and books requiring special handling because of a conflict in the shelf-list) were shunted off to the regular cataloger who stood by to answer questions and generally supervise the work of the visiting catalogers. Sub- ject headings were brought up to date through the basic list and supplements; the flow of books through cataloging routine was reviewed; decisions written on slips of paper were coordinated, re- viewed and typed in readable form on sheets; sample book cards, pockets, and sets of catalog cards were assembled.

     summary: To suggest that censorship is hardly a rna jor daily problem for the rank and file librarian is not to suggest that there are not difficult problems in book selection and in library policies to be met fre- quently. Even though freedom is not the only cherished value in our society, it is an essential one, and for the librarian it ought to be a fundamental consideration in the formulation of library policies and decisions.

     summary: The distinguished biographer of Robert E. Lee sent Sandburg a reprinted edi- torial from his Richmond News Leader on March 26, 1950, and commented: To Carl Sandburg who may smile at the hexameters hidden in the prose form, but he will understand the sentiment, I know, as surely as he will the affection of Douglas Southall Freeman The late Professor James G. Randall, long an intimate friend of Sandburg, pre- sented a revised version of his Constitu- tional Problems Under Lincoln (1951), and wrote: Dear Carl: In sending a copy of Sixteen Authors to One (1928), one chapter of which deals with Sandburg's work, David Kars- ner wrote: For Carl Sandburg who does things, says things, writes things, and sings things that I like.

The faculty members at both institutions had another opportunity to prac- tice cooperation and working together; as each department head gave up his library, he could see more clearly the advantages of teamwork and of larger units of library re- sources and services.

The term Handbook in the title of the publication may lead some prospective users to expect more substantive information on American library resources than they will find in statistical tables of expenditures, number of acquisitions, distribution of book stocks, or cost estimates for union catalogs.

     summary: Our knowledge of Soviet libraries and library techniques has in the past come from re- ports of touring librarians or from surveys by experts such as Horecky or Gorokhoff. It is apparent that while Soviet librarians, like other Soviet citizens, may refrain from criti- cizing the government or Party, they do freely criticize 'the ideas of fellow bureau- crats and complain of the policies of specific government agencies.

     summary: The characteristics which loosely con- federate the more than forty publishers of higher priced paperback books are these: their dependence upon the organi- zation of an already established cloth- bound publisher; the existence of nu- merous books in an already published backlist for which new demand can be generated by making them available in paperback editions; the possibility of developing an internal reprint program with relatively small investment of ad- ditional editorial and promotional per- sonnel and expense; the availability of already existing mechanics of production and of distribution. I venture to predict that during this year, the num- ber of units sold of paperback books re- tailing at more than $1.00 will once more substantially increase, but the share of the total volume which each publisher will enjoy will again decline, and unit sales of individual titles, advance orders taken by publishers' salesmen, and pub- lishers printing orders will tend to de- crease accordingly.

We are adding to it, under Mr. Shaw's guidance, buying more books as our resources permit, and Mr. Shaw matches what we do with purchases which he immediately adds to his gift.

In an age witnessing an overwhelming pro- liferation of scientific knowledge, with its elaborate structure and complicated system of communication, any attempt on the part of one man to write a history of one phase of this complex, namely the publication of scientific periodicals, would be as Herculean a task as the attempts to develop systematic control of scientific literature have proven to be.

     summary: MEASURING LIBRARY uSE In their efforts to indicate the volume of library use, librarians have tradition- ally reported such statistics as: books loaned for home use, number of refer- ence questions asked, and number of interlibrary loans transacted. In recent years especially, these data have ap- peared less and less meaningful as true measures of library use and usefulness.

     summary: The effective development of academic library book collections, how- ever, is dependent up_on the understand- ing and acceptance of certain larger as- sumptions which fall neither within the category of administrative techniques nor within these critical standards of judgment applicable to the content of the several subject disciplines. growth of academic book collections has, of course, always been subject to some measure of ·rational control.

     summary: In addition to these defects of the law, major problems in school librarian- ship consist in lack of cooperation and the incomplete metamorphosis in the new education system~ For example, there is no cooperative, centralized cata- loging for a group of school libraries in a school district. The American faculty's contributions to the development of Japanese libraries are so noteworthy that I should like to mention their names in the order of their visits: Robert L. Gitler, the found- ing director of the school, from the Uni- versity of Washington, Seattle, and now at New York State University College at Geneseo; Mrs. Frances Cheney, Peabody College; Bertha Frick, Columbia; Han- 3 Takahisa Sawamoto, Education for Librarianship in Japan, in American Libraries, Report of the U.S .

     summary: It is regrettable that the study of li- brary size and library growth rates is hampered by deficiencies in the quality of available library size and growth sta- tistics. However, there has been no per- ceptible slowing down in growth rate for these libraries over the previous pe- riod of fourteen years.

     summary: The publication is to be directed primarily to undergraduate college libraries with book funds of $30,000 or less; it is hoped, however, that it may also be useful in book selection activities of other libraries. Need for a current book selection service for college and other libraries having similar problems has been apparent for some time, and ALA has undertaken a study to determine a rapid and efficient method of disseminating information while it is still current.

     summary: The new edi- tion will be a boon in libraries which have not owned a copy of the first edition ; it is different enough, too, from the earlier edi- tion to be worth having in the libraries which do have the 1954 issue. This revised edition is all the more welcome because of the enforced dep- rivation of the title in many libraries in whose collections it should be.

     summary: The true value of the book consists not in pla intive hopes but in actual accomplishments and these are the translation of library routines into computer programing with vivid awareness of what the computer can and cannot do. At the Miami Beach Conference in 1962, the authors of this book and Gregory P. Williams, their consultant, reported on the project at the University of Illinois Congress Circle campus to study the use of computers in library technical processes.

     summary: An incidental merit to this solution is that it would simplify the placement of secondary works dealing with indi- vidual works in that such works would readily file (or shelve) next to all single presentations of the works with which they deal. Secondary works of the first kind are usually divided into those dealing with individual works, those dealing with groups of an author's works, and those dealing with his works as a whole or nearly so-the distinction be- tween the second and third classes being less usual than the distinction between the first and the others.

     summary: Although note taking methods vary with the individual and sometimes with the type of project, most researchers em- ploy some system involving the use of cards. The advantages of this system are chiefly that no cross referring or dupli- cation of notes is necessary because the cross referring and indexing is done by punching the card according to the pre- determined plan, either as a note is completed or at the end of a period of note taking when all the notes can be punched at once.

     summary: There are two drawbacks to the ~se of such languages, however: (1) there IS no generally accepted single symbolic lan- guage, so that the investigator must at pres- ent learn a number of languages if he is un- certain of the computer he may have to use; (2) since symbolic languages are used in so many ways by so many fields, they tend to grow rather rapidly and to become unman- ageable. The present book represents an at- tempt to solve many of the problems inher- ent in computer languages by an interna- tional symposium.

     summary: Indeed, persons knowing the history of other · academic libraries are bound to en- counter in the Bucknell library story much that is familiar: ambitious beginnings (1848- 59) followed by decline and neglect (1859- 79) ; the rise, fall, and eve ntual merging of student society librari es with the college col- lection; the notable and salutary effort on collegiate library services of student demands nourished (circa 1880's and '90's) by reading student papers of other schools; increasing the hours the library was open from one or a few a week to something like present prac- tice; opening of a reading room; regular employment as librarian of someone other than a full-time professor-custodian (1894) ; the employment of an experienced female assistant librarian to help create a card cata- log (1896); separate study facilities for wom- en students resulting from the unchivalrous objections of their male counterparts (1896/ 97) ; a Carnegie building (1905) to accom- modate growing collections and services; reg- ular annual appropriations for books grow- ing out of acceptance of appropriations for binding (I 906-16), etc. 341 The first analysis marks an important mile- stone in the development of a statistical pic- ture of academic libraries.

     summary: · Special needs of users: Students need direct access to a small and well selected collection of library materials, with a minimum of physical and psychological restraint, conditions which are attrac- tive and conducive to study, long open hours, and a mature and respected pro- fessional staff. Hypothesis: There are three levels of library use in an academic and research institution: (1) college level-the stu- dent's library, for the beginning student engaged in general education and in ac- quiring background for specific disci- plines; (2) university level-the ma- turing scholar's library, for the develop- ing scholar and specialist, emphasizing a subject field or area, providing syn- thesis and an introduction to research; and (3) research level-for the ad- vanced graduate, faculty member, and research staff concerned with the exten- sion or application of knowledge pro- viding the necessary intellectual support for research.

     summary: Also guild conscious library school graduates at work for scien- tists have correctly stressed how unprofes- sional their users have found certain exist- ing samples of technical literature analysis, not to say how nebulous all of us admit most information science now is. Since the decisions as to what programs were to be described were rigorously made, and since their descriptions are by those top individuals who are involved in teaching, this distillation of science information train- ing's trends and achievements in this coun- try is a distinct .contribution to understand- ing the state of the art and to estimating its immediate future.

     summary: For some time the lack of a guide to Latin American libraries-similar to the American Library Directory-has hampered persons needing information about such in- stitutions. A number of library schools long since took pioneering steps in adding to their cur- ricula courses in science and engineering literature and bibliography, as well as in the literature and bibliography of other fields.

Although the compilers have not at- tempted to include all Latin American li- braries, their aim was to present all uni- versity and special libraries, public libraries of more than two thousand volumes, and school libraries of more than one thousand volumes; they recognize that, even with these limits, they have probably missed some in- stitutions.

     summary: The growing masses of students besieg- ing academic institutions, the current trend toward greater library use by stu- dents and the concomitant inability of libraries to keep up with these demands because of budget and staff limitations, are other factors cited which should deter libraries from allowing their books to lie unused and forgotten in faculty mem- bers' bookcases. There is general agreement that fac- ulty members should have extended priv- ileges on library materials.

     summary: This is evident in our lan- guage, where the word service recurs in many phrases: technical services, refer- ence service, reader's advisory service, the Library Services Act, the Columbia University school of library service, etc. Librarians sometimes use the word ser- vice as a synonym for such impersonal words as process or operation, 2 3 Using the word service in the latter sense, Raynard C. Swank wrote, Service is a cardinal principle of Amer- ican librarianship.

     summary: By adhering to a policy of cooperation with other information collecting centers, and by remaining alert to further op- portunities for achieving expanded cov- erage of biological serial literature, it is the expectation that a more comprehen- sive final product will ultimately become available for all who care to use it. Inasmuch as it is not the intention to accumulate publications but rather to ac- cumulate information about them, access to library collections is a prime requisite.

     summary: In such an area, devoid of an art gallery within sev- eral hundred miles, the display and sale of art objects in the library assumes a co- gency that would not be justified in more culturally-endowed urban areas where fa- cilities for the preservation and presenta- tion of art already exist. Fur- thermore, the Mark Osterlin library has become one of the few authorized outlets for Eskimo art in America.

     summary: In due course, following extended con- sultations with the vice-president for aca- demic administration, these criteria were approved, and on July 1, 1963, the change was made, bringing the total number of library positions with full aca- demic status and faculty rank to sixty, 259 including the various department heads. Since department heads do not uni- formly know of all of the outside activi- ties or contributions of individual staff members that should be recognized and considered in recommending salary ad- justments, each academic staff member is asked, on this form, to list such items as his publications, courses taken, commit- tee work, talks given, and other appro- priate activities or special projects he has undertaken during the past year that are relevant to the appraisal of his perform- ance and development.

They believe, per- haps, that public relations is some sort of advertising employed by public libraries to get people to come to the library or to increase circulation statistics, while on the campus the faculty propels students into the library, and the college librarian does not have to waste time on advertis- ing.

     summary: The high cost of original cataloging of identi- cal materials in many libraries and the mounting of backlogs in most catalog de- partments are compelling reasons for urgent action. In libraries that presently follow LC in entry, classification, and subject heading there is ample evidence that the merging of LC · authority with the local authority for entry, interpretation of clas- sification, and application of subject headings produces considerably less than duplication of the LC system, although the aim and rule is to follow LC.

     summary: One passage in his essay certainly deserves quot- ing as setting a goal for CHOICE if that magazine is to be anything more than The Booklist junior grade: What is needed is a weekly periodical devoted to book reviews (and perhaps to film, music, and art chronicles also), and with a circulation well over one hundred thousand across the country. Toward the middle of the book there is a chapter on reference service in which the author offers his Odyssey of reference books.

System development costs will vary from library to library because of differences in record volume and record specifications.

     summary: Howe found much the same picture for D enver graduates (con- centration in private institutions), 6 but Wilson found Illinois students divided evenly between public and private insti- tutions.7 By comparing the percentages of col- leges attended in each state with the per- centage of students attending them, as shown in Table 2, it can be seen that the closer the state is to Philadelphia, the more heavily concentrated were the stu- dents from these colleges. The tables use the same minimum number of Drexel students, three for each college, however, and also omit certain universities which provided more than three students but had a low score in column 4.

     summary: Book cards are prepared on con- tinuous form stock by the computing center from punched card information originating in the circulation and catalog departments. Since faculty members account for some 50 per cent of all loan transactions, it is not difficult to see that, for many of them, it is difficult at the end of a semes- ter to know exactly what library books are charged to them.

     summary: It should be immediately noted that although the separate undergraduate or college library has been adopted as the pattern of library service in a group of institutions, it has either not been con- sidered or it has been rejected by others which provide central library service to the university community in a single building~ The separate undergraduate library has been regarded as a means of im- proving library service to undergrad- uates by giving them their own special facilities, a book and periodical collec- tion chosen to meet their needs and a staff interested in providing library ser- vice to young college students. A major change in library service to undergraduates occurred with the open- ing of the Lamont library at Harvard in January 1949.

     summary: The borderline between what is nonprofessional and what is profes- sional among library duties has become more sharply defined in re~ent years due in part to the shortage of library school graduates and the need to oper- ate libraries as efficiently and econom- ically as possible. If a library is unable to attract competent nonprofessional employees or if the turnover among such employees is ex- cessively high, there is a risk that librar- ians will be forced into the performance of nonprofessional tasks to an excessive extent and thus provide library service that is economically indefensible and detrimental to the wider public accept- ance of librarians as a professional group.

     summary: College and Research Libraries FREDERIC R. HARTZ Freshman Library Orientation: a Need for New Approaches Reevaluation of freshman library orientation programs is suggested with mafor emphasis on: (1) the need for a continuing four or five year orientation program; (2) increased college enrollments; (3) new media of communication; and ( 4) increased emphasis on the individual student. Devised to give library orientation just once dur- ing one's college career, the lectures are burdened with detail and innumer- able reference citations, trying to give the college freshman in one or two hours what librarians have learned in one or more years of formal training.

     summary: Although the general literature per- taining to book selection for university li- braries does not deal individually with religious materials, it does offer a frame- work of general information and ideas within which a philosophy for selecting religious books may be conceived. If the acquisi- tions department has a core of bibliog- raphers engaged in book selection, the concern for general religious materials might be assigned to one or more of these.

     summary: IFLA made a good start in this respect in Rome, where in a ple- nary meeting four experts delivered lee- 394 I College & Research Libraries • September 1965 tures on libraries in newly developing countries and in special meetings where such subjects as reprography and mech- anization were discussed. Proposed as being essential to its continued success are: (1) a broader base for its fiscal support; (2) special conferences for particular groups of librarians; (3) improved annual programing; (4) better com- munication between IFLA and its constituent organizations; and, (5) a more extensive publication program.

     summary: Awareness of the problems of library and bibliographical instruction has so increased, especially since the second World War, that courses in library usage have even been inserted into many college curricula. It is important to observe that in the past much of the work of giving library instruction to students has been done by librarians without the help of college and university administrators, and that the burden it places on other aspects of library work is frequently excessive.

     summary: The value of reference work in maintaining good public relations is recog- nized by everyone, but the complicated re- lationship between the reference function and the other technical processes calls for frequent new definition, and the double- edged responsibility of reference personnel to interpret the administration on one hand, and represent the public on the other, has not yet been sufficiently explored in pro- fessional literature. First, any record of how one univer- sity treats academic problems adds to the understanding of higher education in Amer- ica.

     summary: The report considers rather extensively the regional library concept for the de- velopment of public library resources. Cer- tainly, the facts contained in the report will be useful for a long time to come in plan- ning for improved library services and as arguments for increased library budgets.- Isaac T.

     summary: Since both the total stack footage in the new library and th·e linear feet of books to be moved are known, the li- brarian can arrange the subject classes in descending order of expansion po- tential, as best he is able to determine, and then increase the space allocated beginning with those subjects high on the list, as well as those which will soon be absorbing storage, or other books. While the actual volume of manpower may vary greatly from library to library, depending upon size, distance to be moved, and other factors, it may be offered as a final rule of book moving, that as much manpower as can be effectively utilized should be employed in order to provide a steadily increasing flow of books into the new li- brary; the flow becoming constant when the shelving crews have attained to their maximum efficiency.

Under the conditions in which the study was made-providing a limited number of services in relation to current ongoing courses in the department of English within the period of one aca- demic year-there is no evidence that the application of special library services and techniques to the college library provided more or better service to users than when they were not provided.

     summary: Competent univer- sity librarians evidently found their assign- ment of relating the Warren proposal to library planning a bit sticky for they fre- quently retreated to discussing tangential matters such as the quality of microfilm readers and local applications of computers to library operations. One cannot judge the substance and worth of a conference by its printed pro- ceedings, and the participants in the con- clave may have gained considerable insight into the implications of the Warren proposal for library planning.

     summary: Since university libraries are often used not just as a source of library ma- terials but also as a place where students study their own books and notes, an analysis was made of the materials the students were using at the time of the survey. Library use increased progressively from the freshman through the senior year, and again it was shown that seniors do not spend more hours in the library than members of other classes, but that they are more frequently found there and are more likely to be using library materials.

     summary: College and Research Libraries HERBERT POOLE Teletypewriters in Libraries: A State of the Art Report A literature survey was made of articles indexed in Library Literature and Library Science Abstracts which dealt with teletypewriter applica- tions in all types of libraries. That fifteen libraries or library-related organizations have advantageously and successfully used teletypewriters since 1927 would indicate that this type of communication device is fairly well established in library operations.

This, rather than merely the superior student is the focus of this volume which, briefly, traces the history of the honors movement in America; spells out some of the charac- teristics and needs of the superior student (and inadvertently exposes the precious- ness of some of them) that lead to the de- velopment of honors programs; gives case studies of honors work in such differing academic milieus as liberal arts colleges, private and state universities, and secondary schools; and treats of the differing objectives and methods of departmental and college honors.

For the instructor with little ex- perience or training in teaching methods, student ratings can point out areas on which he must concentrate to increase his effectiveness.

     summary: Therefore, the central problem may be stated in the form of this ques- tion: Is there a difference in the per- centages of men and women who are head librarians of colleges, when the institutions are grouped according to the nature of their financial support and by the size of their enrollments? From the analysis of the information reported by the head librarians the fol- lowing generalizations may be derived: There is very little difference in the percentages of men and women who serve as head librarians in colleges of the United States.

     summary: Some expect very little in the way of library services, while others take it for granted that they will continue to receive the same type of service they ob- tained at home from their library in a large research center of a highly devel- oped country. It is after all not enough merely to offer good library services.

     summary: For years these exercises began with a tour of the university library so that students would know the location of available services. These shortcomings included ( 1) em- phasis on services (microfilm: Readers' Guide to Periodical Literature) which are of comparatively little use to scholars in biology; ( 2) failure to draw attention to certain especially useful items (the Xerox machine, the journals shelved with U.S. government documents); ( 3) in- ability of students at the rear of the group to see and hear; ( 4) lack of op- portunity to handle the items shown and to examine them closely, thus failing to satisfy curiosity at the moment of its provocation by the guide; and ( 5) lack of opportunity to notice and explore items of special interest to individual students.

The extended period of editorial prepara- tion has left a residue of awkwardness, such as that in the section on library cooperation written in 1964, predicting some changes in 1965.

     summary: For this reason it might be better if the pilot comparison effort took place in such libraries rather than in those which do not use LC. The problem is to develop strate- gies and techniques to facilitate not only the conversion of the basic LC file, but also for comparing and adding the new titles and locations for the titles held by each succeeding library as it enters the system and for enabling a library to extract catalog entries for its own hold- ings from the record.

     summary: It has not yet been proven, however, that study carrels represent a sufficiently great ad- vance in library furnishings to occupy, as has been recommended, 60 per cent of library study space. The necessity for providing a variety of study spaces, K/ rather than relying exclusively on study halls, carrels, or stack areas becomes ap- parent, particularly if one considers that the vast majority of studying takes place in the students' own residences.

     summary: ... it is a curious anomaly that reference work, which so many librarians regard as the highest form of library service, should remain the most ill-defined and poorly recorded area of our work and service.1 From history we know that reference service was not the traditional function of the library. The burden of this message might be particularly applicable to the spectrum of our writings on the subject of reference services.

If machines are to be used to their fullest potential in library operations, these oper- ations must be reformulated in terms of interrelated processes.

     summary: There is a dearth of inclusive and cur- rent information, however, with respect to actual percentages of library seating maintained among types of academic in- stitutions, although such information would be extremely helpful for planning purposes. In order to determine the extent of library seating currently provided or ex- pected in the near future in larger uni- versity libraries, the University of Illi- nois library recently queried the thirty- six university libraries in the United States with book collections of one mil- lion or more volumes.

Because one of the major problems facing the profession in general and public library administrators in particular at this period in library history relates to metro- politan and suburban problems, it is es- pecially helpful to have this information so well organized and presented.

     summary: In- deed, for administrators to have so long allowed themselves to be so little aware of the developing theory of library serv- ice as search strategy, even in such di- verse thinkers as Metcalfe and Rangana- than, bespeaks a need for a new invigo- ration of the profession—probably pos- sible only through the library schools. It seems better then to recommend a shift to a wholly new mode of search strategy, than to be dominated by juxtaposition: in a word, the classified catalog.

We have muffed our chance for a code based clearly on principle, we have missed the boat on international cooperation (sig- nificantly, just as the Library of Congress begins a magnificent program of interna- tional cooperation in shared cataloging), we have allowed the problems of a rela- tively few large existing libraries to take precedence over the emerging needs of many more libraries which will be the large existing libraries of the future, and we have ignored the new technology which we know represents what we must use in the future.

     summary: Because of the growing standardization of medical classification being brought about by the rapidly growing number of new medical libraries, the Cunningham and other privately originated medical systems will probably die out except in some of the large research collections (where the cost of reclassification would be prohibi- tive). It has now become the only system other than that of the Na- tional Library of Medicine specifically de- signed for medical libraries and in use among more than a few such libraries.

     summary: Faculty are outright jealous; she has what faculty want most of all and what is rightfully theirs, not hers.8 Said once more, when stated purposes are in agreement and where the physical arrangements predict success, the hy- pothesis that people are at the core of the failure is worthy of pursuit.4 What follows, then, are arguments for the assertion that personal conflicts ex- ist between faculty members and librari- ans.

     summary: It was fitting that one of the very last letters Mrs. Kidder was to receive should come from Claribel Barnett of the U.S. Department of Agriculture library, as had also one of the first, that basic and influential letter of July 21, 1908, to the ambitious and eager novice seeking help. Mrs. Kidder was, at the time of her appointment, fifty-three years old and only two years out of the University of Illinois library school.

     summary: Have these men and their similarly eminent colleagues (among them Victor Scholderer) exhausted the problems of early printing to such an extent that little has been left to following generations or, and this is presumably more correct, have present training and the pres- sure of other duties created conditions which are much less favorable to research in depth than in earlier periods?

     summary: Recent years have seen a healthy increase in the quantity and quality of specific studies within the historical American printing industry—ac- counts of particular printers, or of printing in particular communities or in particular circumstances. It is one of the few attempts thus far made to generalize a comprehensive printing history out of documented scholarly studies and sources, instead of from the reminis- cences and memoirs of old printers which, although interesting, are often inaccurate of fact and sometimes misleading of spirit.

     summary: It was hoped that the undergraduate library could bring together in one place all aspects of library service relating to the undergraduate curriculum, thereby encouraging the student to learn. Second, centralization of services was intended to remove the obstacles which impede the undergraduate in his search for library materials, making the learn- ing process easier and more satisfactory.

     summary: Most of the advice that the nine li- braries would give to other libraries con- sidering the change to LC and/or re- classification has to do with reclassifica- tion. Apparently reclassifi- cation costs are so inextricably bound up in the regular operating budgets of most libraries that it is almost impossible to establish the true unit cost.

     summary: But those more interested in the technical aspects of book production might well gain the most from a reading of The Design of Books. Since Adrian Wilson is himself something of a phenomenon, his book turns out to be, not a how-to-do-it manual, but an ode to the art of book design.

     summary: In an effort to determine the extent to which college libraries were engaged in innovational practices, a questionnaire was sent to 1,193 institutions having liberal arts programs. College libraries have long been producing accessions lists and selective bibliographies, at least for faculty use; some have abandoned these services because of their cost.

     summary: At the Library of Congress the Principal Evaluations Officer, in con- sultation with subject specialists, makes the appraisal; if the material is estimat- ed to be worth more than $1,000, a formal ad hoc evaluation committee, con- sisting of subject and acquisitions spe- cialists, is set up.5 Many libraries indicated that there was a price limit above which they call in an outside agency to do the ap- praisal. It recommended that libraries should not appraise gifts for inheritance or tax purposes except in those cases where only items of comparatively low monetary value are involved.

     summary: Although few librarians have control over maintenance practices, their understanding of the problems associated with them should improve their under- standing of good and bad practices and should enable them to know what results to expect from any specific floor covering. Running through the fabric of the Methodist Publishing House's past are some of the warp threads in the whole fabric of American history: the in- fluence of an expanding frontier; the op- timism and sectionalism which its broad horizons generated; inflation, depression, war, and industrial growth.

     summary: In conclusion, this short volume could be the start of a management literature that will meet an unfilled and obvious need of library administrative staffs and library sci- ence professors and their students. In their more sober moments most library administrators admit that their sophistication with the technical aspects of management probably does not approach that of the man of the house in the days of cottage industry.

The study is a country-by-country description-more com- prehensive as well as more detailed than we have had before-of library problems and activities in a great arc comprising South Korea , the Republic of China ( Tai- wan), the Philippines , South Viet Nam, Laos , Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, and Indonesia.

     summary: Those reporting the largest num- ber of research collections were Duke and the University of North Carolina at Chap- el Hill with eight apiece; they were fol- lowed by Louisiana State University with six. Early in 1967 officers of the Association of Southeastern Research Libraries decided to sponsor publication of a guide to re- search collections in the libraries holding membership in their organization, and Pro- fessor Thomas H. English, scholarly chair- man emeritus of Emory University's De- partment of English, was selected as com- piler and editor.

     summary: Figures 5 and 6 contain .a plot of the last circulation dat~ for the Mount Holy- oke College library circulation as re- corded over a four-month period. Using both curves in Figure 1, it is possible to make such remarks as the following: at the five-year mark on the plot, approximately 7 per cent of the circulation sample had last circulation dates not within five years, or in effect were taken from a subset or portion of the stack population that comprised ap- proximately 40 per cent of the stack holdings; expressed differently, 93 per cent of the circulation came from 60 per cent of the holdings.

     summary: The use of academic dissertations for exchange by American libraries has greatly diminished since University Microfilms expanded its pro- gram for the publication of American dissertations in the early 1950s. As a result, access to American dissertations abroad and to for- eign dissertations in the United States poses many problems.

     summary: College and Research Libraries JOHN M. CHRIST Functional Analysis and Library Science Functional analysis is a tool with significant positive implications for library research because of: (1) its facility for investigating the social system of which the librar.y is an integral part; and (2) its direction towards heuristic considerations and metaphysical theory long neg- lected in library science. The sociological approach to function- al analysis has a greater degree of rele- vance for library research than the mechanistic approach because the meth- od is more closely related to the type of phenomena and social system which comprises the library as an institution.

     summary: Comments seemed to indicate that academic libraries should stay open af- ter 10:00 P.M. only where universities can afford it and where there are enough security officers and student assistants on the library staffs to give adequate supervision. Some of these sev- en libraries allowed students to check out reserve reading materials, while one allowed the books in its three small undergraduate reading rooms to be checked out before midnight.

     summary: There are twen- ty of these essays in all: four deal with the C.L.A./ A.C.B. itself, four with munici- pal and regional libraries, two with uni- versity libraries, two with special libraries, two with services for children and young people, three with bibliography and pub- lishing, two with personnel and library ed- ucation. Often the elegance of the system design seems more important than the people problems associated with accommodating the needs of the library staff and library users.

     summary: In order to review these problems and to discuss pos- sible solutions, several of the leading li- brarians concerned with Latin America met in 1956 and began the first of the annual seminars known as SALALM (Seminar on the Acquisition of Latin American Library Materials) under the aegis of UNESCO and the Pan American Union. It is really a history of the growth of interest in what is being published in Latin America and the growing efforts to acquire these publi- cations.

The problem of dislocation of interest, of course, runs deeper than serial repre- sentation in American libraries-though we like to think that our libraries are on the frontiers of knowledge.

     summary: A single center for the selection, order- ing, cataloging, and processing of at least 90,000 volumes annually has been recommended for these six libraries for the following reasons: ( 1) there ap- peared to be a great deal of duplication of effort, with a negligible amount of unique technical processing being done in the libraries; ( 2) no significant dif- ferences in practices were found; ( 3) a center would cost less to operate than it would cost to expand facilities in the individual libraries and titles could be processed more cheaply; ( 4) profession- al personnel which is now involved in technical services would be free to con- tribute more toward the improvement of service by being released to plan, make policies, provide more guidance in the use of libraries, and actually get in- volved in the substantive aspect of the academic program. Plans for develop- ment include funding a center and the acquisition of additional ma- terials, and encouraging other similar libraries to take advantage of the center's services.

Because of this lack of published in- formation, a comprehensive study and survey of the history of the problem, the present status of slide collections, practical matters (such as equipment and photographic processing) , and more formal library considerations (such as use of classification, source fil es, and authority files) was b egun in 1968.

     summary: In this adaptation of his doctoral disser- tation Mr. Bobinski treats in factual detail the history of Carnegie public library phi- lanthropy in the United States. Primarily in the period between 1902 and 1908 some $4,283,048 was given toward the construc- tion of 108 academic libraries; and, while Bobinski stresses the fact that grants were not made to public libraries for collections, 311 academic libraries, mainly in the 1930s, did receive grants totaling $2,592,800 for library development which, in general, meant the purchase of books.

     summary: This book could be used as a beginning text in a course in library science in the area of library systems analysis. The resulting volume will stand for a long time as the definitive enumeration of early Ore- gon printing, although one can imagine that somewhere the game has probably al- ready begun of reporting a title not in Belknap.

     summary: The ten steps involve: ( 1) provision of funds for the library in the capital funds secured for the new campus, ( 2) appointment of a capable head librarian, ( 3) utilization of a well-qualified library consultant, ( 4) es- tablishment of a code of library policy and procedure, ( 5) priority to be given for pro- vision of library materials, ( 6) considering the library to be a materials resource cen- ter, (7) long-range budgeting, (8) visits to similar libraries, ( 9) writing the specifi- cations for the consultant, and ( 10) estab- lishing cooperative relationships with other libraries. The conclusion of the survey is that North Carolina libraries do not have suffi- cient resources, physical facilities, or staff to provide adequate library service for the state.

Library doctoral students are urged to submit sum- maries of their research; our only requirement is that the topic be of interest to academic librarians and that the manuscript be pruned of deadly dissertationese.

     summary: American university librarians are surely not so foolish as to give up a suc- cessful program just because librarians in other countries cling to an outmoded sys- tem. First, because most European university dissertations are not very good and are not worth the cost of an exchange system; sec- ond, European universities will soon be giving up, as some of them already have, publication requirements for the same rea- sons that American universities gave them up at the end of World War II; and third, the ARL-University Microfilms method of publishing dissertations has ' proved to be a very satisfactory system for making texts available for which the demand is light.

The article, Three Early Academic Li- brary Surveys, by Norman D. Stevens in the N ovem her issue provides an interest- ing and useful footnote to academic li- brary history, and Mr. Stevens is to be congratulated for having dug out two un- published surveys which antedate the sem- inal one of the University of Georgia Li- brary in 1938.

He claims New York Public Library is the only li- brary intending to develop research library status (what about Cleveland, Philadelphia, Boston, Los Angeles, to name a few?) and that home delivery will free the branch li- brary from a certain amount of questions and routine circulation so that library sys- tems might begin to staff branch libraries with competent · professionals all of the time.

     summary: It should be noted that the largest re- sponse category for faculty respondents was to do research for a publishable paper or book ( 21 percent), while more than 50 percent of the faculty came to do research for a publishable paper, read library material for self- improvement, or find and read ma- terial required for a course. The most common response of the graduate students indicated no second- ary reason ( 32 percent), while the three next most common responses were to find and read material required for a course, do homework with own books, and read library material for self-improvement.

     summary: In his tables, Professor Danton indi- cates that there has been an almost unin- terrupted increase in the total number of festschriften (except in the depression and World War II years) . In terms of completeness, a brief checking of the festschrift titles in- cluded in Library Literature from 1958 to 1970 indicates that Professor Danton got all that were eligible for inclusion under his criteria.

     summary: By now, over 40 large U.S. and Canadian universities have separately housed undergraduate libraries in actual operation, under construction or in some stage of planning. Obviously a time for stocktaking is at hand: this year, undergraduate libraries were the top- ic of a major meeting at ALA in Detroit and even a separate summer institute in San Diego.

     summary: It would appear that the best parts of this volume would serve any of the social sciences; in this reviewer's experience, library school doctoral students, let alone library practitioners, need some- thing less advanced and more directly con- cerned with how to proceed.

Tolkien, whose mete- oric rise in popularity in this country fol- lowed the paperback reprinting of his tril- ogy, Lord of the Rings, in 1965. Interest in J. R. R. Tolkien extends far beyond the characters and plot of the Rings trilogy, but there is little doubt that the trilogy has become the focal point for seri- ous discussion of the man and his works.

     summary: Followers of this topic will no doubt be interested to know that Mr. Radford has al- so discovered several college library surveys which, in fact, were done earlier than 1938: one in 1926; and others in 1931, 1932, 1934, 1936, and 1937; the last five by Ran- dall. I hope that when Mr. Radford has completed his investigations, he will give us an article reporting his full findings.

     summary: On the other hand, of the 232 requests in the sample actually received by the Area Library (unit input), 110 ( 47.4 per- cent) were filled by the Area Library. By considering the requests first submitted to the Area Li- brary and those not first submitted to the Area Library as two subsamples, it can be seen that the success rate of the Area Library subsample, when weight- ed by that subsample's proportion of to- tal requests , has a disproportionately positive effect on the total system's ef- fectiveness.

     summary: As the primary argu- ment developed by the largest and most influential professional organization repre- senting academic librarians, during a dec- ade of vigorous growth in libraries and li- brary services, and for a goal toward which some thousands of academic librarians have demonstrated very strong interest, this monograph represents a serious fail- ure not only of intention but also of re- sponsibility. In fact, the most illuminating and thoughtful of these studies (The Status of Librarians in Four Year State Colleges and Universities) draws quite a different conclusion: that only a small minority of academic librarians now have full faculty status, although a majority seem to believe that they do.

The volume states that the necessity of studying and improving on-going systems is necessary in and of itself, and does not necessitate commitment to mechanized or computerized solutions, yet the trend that systems analysis studies will aid in justify-

     summary: The obviously significant factor, the number of holds on a book out in circulation, has been used for duplicate purchasing in small libraries from time immemorial. We re- ported the results of this survey to the fac- ulty, requesting their cooperation in not placing on reserve books that may have lit- tle or no use, pointing out that it would have been better to leave those unused ti- tles in the general collection for possible use by browsers and to save the efforts of both the faculty and library staff.

     summary: College and Research Libraries Library Service to Social Scientists Social scientists and policy-makers thirst for information, but librari- ans sitting passively behind reference desks cannot quench that thirst.

     summary: LooKING BACK over the past two dec- ades, one can see that three n1ajor issues seem to have dominated discussions among academic librarians: ( 1) The relative merits of the Library of Con- gress Classification System as compared with the Dewey Decimal; ( 2) the role of the computer in library operations; and ( 3) blanket approval plans as a means for systematic collection growth. All three have generated considerable amounts of impassioned rhetoric at pro- fessional gatherings and a corpus of polemical writing, but only a relatively small amount of research aimed at eval- uating how the Library of Congress Classification System, the computer, or approval plans have advanced or retard- ed the academic library's progress to- ward its stated educational objectives.

     summary: No one in librarianship has searched longer or more assiduously for answers to good lighting than Keyes Metcalf, and ulti- mately, no one is more baffied by the whole question. If we have high intensity for defective vision and library work areas, 70-80 percent of the reading areas can stay at 30-35 footcandles, which to me means back to the cave.

     summary: S. P. L. Filon's study of Library Coop- eration in Great Britain is less personal and summarizes in a very useful form the history of interlending mainly insofar as the National Central Library was concerned with it. The problem of buildings has now reached a happy solution in the firm decision to go ahead with a building to house both the British Museum Library and the National Reference Library of Science and Inven- tion on the Bloomsbury site, though it will be some years before the actual buildings are ready.

     summary: Probabilistic conclusions sug- gest certain educational activities be under- taken: ( 1) There is no justification to cre- ate a postmasters program to teach basic library techniques and library schools must incorporate skill development within the curriculum or on-the-job training will have to be continued; ( 2) two justifications for internship programs require establishment of programs either to teach students the op- erations of large library systems with an ex- pectation of employment, or to teach stu- dents the application of theoretical knowl- edge in a working environment aimed to- ward a speciality; ( 3) management and planning tasks for libraries cannot be ade- quately taught in a one-year postmasters educational program; and ( 4) the distinc- tive feature of medical librarianship is its environment, and the librarian must com- prehend how biomedical information is generated and used and should attend con- ferences and seminars to gain this knowl- edge. While neither A]YB nor Fraenkel can serve advertisers easily, either is good for most library use and much more comprehensive than The ] ewish Press in A merica.

     summary: Although library literature on the whole is deadening, many of the people who produce it and the issues it reflects are excit- ing and intellectually challenging. I refer to the fact that as yet we have not utilized the medium of television to preserve important aspects of the careers of a relatively small number of leaders of the profession who have played crucial roles in the development of library services at all levels over the past three to four decades.

Regional lists can theoretical- ly provide a greater number of titles for interlibrary loan purposes than a state list.

     summary: The in- cluded citations were identified through a literature search of Library Literature, 1955-1968, several existing bibliographies on library cooperation covering the period 1940-1954, and an announcement which appeared in the major library journals re- questing descriptions of cooperative inter- library projects. Considering the paucity of materials on French libraries that have been published in English, this book is a useful entry into a rather embarrassing void.

While the work is basically a report that provides recommendations for the development of library resources and services, the investiga- tions and careful thinking on the included topics provide several innovative approach- es toward the role of a library in an aca- demic setting.

     summary: To the Editor: Elizabeth A. Storch University of Buffalo Buffalo, New Y ark Corbin's contention, in defense of the computer (CRL 32:316, July 1971) that man being fallible, the machine must be fallible, supports rather than refutes Ma- son's argument against unqualified accept- ance of the computer for library use. It would probably be interesting but exasperating to try to define library use.

     summary: The findings in a survey of faculty use of government documents at Case Western Reserve University indicate ·how document users locate the materials they need, the users' familiarity with standard indexes to public docu- ments, the age of government publications most frequently consult- ed, and other patterns of use. 2 The one factor which appears to be given only minimal consideration in de- termining an appropriate organizational scheme for government publications is the way in which people actually use public documents.

     summary: There are those who would take issue with this, but I think the problem is in the mechanics of par- ticular plans, not the principle.1 An ap- proval plan enables a library to acquire a large part of current book production for inspection, a very useful first step in book selection. Each librarian is assigned a section of the Library of Congress classification as his responsibil- ity for book selection and weeding.

     summary: In view of the author's distinguished career in reference work and bibliogra- phy, this work has been awaited with in- terest by instructors of reference courses: they will find much to applaud, as in the excellent review of statistical sources (including 1970 census data). Because contemporary reviews of American fiction for the period indicat- ed have not previously been accessible through standard reference works, this attempt to direct the researcher to just this type of secondary source material is welcome.

     summary: if en- rollments continue to rise and finance con- tinues to :Bow into higher education, will it be good enough simply to enlarge or multiply institutions without reconsidering their pattern, their curricula, their social purpose? Basically, Ashby's book is a well-written description of some current problems in higher education, including the lack of con- sensus on what should be taught under- graduates, the high attrition rate of fresh- man students, the overemphasis upon the Ph.D. (while recognizing its continuing usefulness for its original narrow purpose), testing, credentials, university administra- tion and governance, and the extent of stu- dent participation in university policy-mak- ing.

     summary: Evaluative mea- sures used include: processing time lags, quality of the product, enterability or compatibility of the processing center prod- uct to previous processing, staffing patterns of member libraries, production considera- tions, and costs of processing. The reviewer was particularly pleased to see the following comment regarding processing time lags and member library complaints: In order to gain a true pic- ture of the additional delay incurred by dealing with a processing center, a library should first have a documented concept of the time it takes a book to clear its own technical processing depa1tment.

Different con- ditions in the different libraries-lighting, available seating, air conditioning, demands of the curriculum, whether users are com- muters (Lubans mentions several more)- all might affect the magnitude of in- or out- of library use.

     summary: Kilson maintains that militant ad- vocates of black studies programs who refute the essentially interdisciplinary na- ture of black studies have little to con- tribute to the formal organization of these programs. It is impossible to predict where black studies will take us, for there is no common blueprint for developing and maintaining black studies programs . !

     summary: Where possible, those research units with change groups were more closely analyzed if they had a library or materials center to more adequately understand the role played by a librarian or information manager. In order to shift to an orienta- tion that seeks to develop new and expanding service programs, the establishment of research groups could do much to improve both the services offered by a library and its role in the academic community.

     summary: 8 Summary In traditional management theory, an administrator exercises his leadership role by means of control and direction whereby important psychologiCal needs of the employee are ignored. A number of recent studies have explained these failures primarily in terms of interpersonal barriers, and organizational structure.

This assumption will, of course, necessitate a very conserva- tive break-even point figure, and any li- brary using the formula to determine whether or not to use proof slips should bear this in mind.

     summary: A theological librarian should at the lowest aim at a thorough knowledge of Theological Encyclopedia, Literary History, and Bibliography, some considerable knowledge of Palaeography, a knowledge of at least ten or a dozen lan- guages, besides the technical matters of li- brary science, collating, keeping stock which involve a good deal of study of typography, art of binding or engraving, etc., etc., etc.l E. C. Richardson remained in Hart- ford until 1890, when he left for Prince- ton as assistant librarian and later, librar- ian, until his retirement in 1925. A graduate of the seminary, Mr. Henry Hopkins Kelsey, class of 1879, was appointed as assistant librarian to Dr. Hartranft to relieve him from routine work; due to the fact that both men were also involved in teaching responsibilities, however, the library was essentially left in the hands of E. C. Rich- ardson, who became assistant librarian in 1882 during his senior year (compare his same position at Amherst), and librarian in 1884, when Dr. Hartranft resigned only to become the president of the in- stitution some four years later.

     summary: It should be stressed again that Professor Saracevic is not alone in defining information science more broadly than he conceives it in practice. Because most of these papers have not previously been collected, and because their general quality is so high, this book should be pur- chased by every library that has even a minimal collection in the area of librarian- ship or information science.

     summary: Because most of these papers have not previously been collected, and because their general quality is so high, this book should be pur- chased by every library that has even a minimal collection in the area of librarian- ship or information science. A very regrettable feature of the volume is that in his general introduction, the edi- tor does not help to clarify what this disci- pline that he calls information science is, but rather perpetuates and further com- pounds the confusion that is rampant in the promotional literature of ASIS, the bulletins of schools of information science, and oth- er publications.

     summary: From its title, if indeed titles nowadays should be somewhat descriptive of a book's content, one would suppose that the major thrust of the work would be in the direction of the actual design of academic libraries. The college teacher and administrator who is unaware of use surveys which have been made in academic libraries over the past forty years should pay considerable at- tention to chapter VII.

     summary: This volume is pertinent to any librarian interested in current library technology and its effects on bibliographic control and pa- tron usage of catalogs, and to any librarian contemplating the use of book catalogs in his library. The primary emphasis of the papers is on the comparison of book catalogs to card catalogs, now that technological develop- ments, particularly the computer, have made the production and updating of book catalogs feasible and economical.

     summary: If Tauber's Technical Services in Libraries is aimed at library school students, Introduction to Technical Services for Library Technicians provides nonprofessionals a close, low- level look at all aspects of technical ser- vices.

     summary: Language has always been one of the easier criteria to apply in selecting books and journals for academic libraries. Despite the low usage in some fields the library should continue to select foreign language materials and the library staff should increase its efforts to promote the use of the available bib- liographical and indexing tools.

     summary: Based on his experience in administering a photoduplication service and in acquiring microforms at both Har- vard and Stanford University libraries, his many previous contributions to library lit- erature regarding library microforms, his activity in ALA and in numerous other professional organizations, and particularly his able chairmanship of the ALA, RTSD Micropublishing Subcommittee for the past six years, Veaner is eminently qualified to author this handbook. The first twenty-two pages are de- voted to a discussion of the micropublish- ing industry, microformats, film size and image legibility, film generations and po- larity, the registration and preservation of master films, locating original material, pro- duction of hard copies, types of film, film stock, film coatings, archival permanence, and use of resolution charts.

     summary: A sampling of our public catalog was carried out last summer to find the amount of filing error; the average error in both the author/title and the subject catalogs was estimated at 1.04 percent, at a confidence level of 95 percent. It was noted, however, that many of the filing errors de- tected were only one card away from the correct location, and, therefore, the prob- ability of such cards being located during a search of the catalog seemed to be high.

While the report re- peatedly states that budgets for new books and periodicals should not be cut, it is clear that other major portions of library expenditures are not so favored.

     summary: If the number of doctoral programs no longer requiring a full-dress dissertation should really increase, one assumes that there would be some lessening of the pressures upon research libraries. That will be a tragedy, in my view, for it will leave undergraduates with fewer oppor- tunities to learn what research really is ( and unlearn some of the popular myths about it) , while leaving univer- sity research libraries in a most a:qom- alous position, bereft of many of their regular users, but called upon to work out cooperative arrangements from afar with burgeoning institutional users out- side the university.

     summary: Although it is quite permissible, and even recom- mended, that disordered records be re- turned through rearrangement to their natural sequence, an archival code states that natural sequence is inviolate. The description of records, therefore, is neither an in- dex, since it is not an alphabetical list- ing or an item-by-item analysis, nor a calendar, since it is not a listing of all documents by date.

Also the lists designed specifically for the selection of government periodicals (the February issue of the Monthly Catalog or Price List No. 36) are more limited in scope and bibliographic detail than Andri- ot's Guide.

     summary: When approval plans first appeared on the library scene in the early 1960s, only libraries with sizeable book budgets could consider having an English-language ap- proval plan. Papers relating the experiences of seven libraries concerning approval plans make up one third of the book: the role of the faculty in book selection (a problem which is relatively independent of the method of book procurement), the mechanics and ra- tionale of ordering additional copies of ti- tles received on approval, and the need for a system of earmarking titles for special col- lections and binding are discussed.

     summary: Corbin seems most comfortable in describing techniques appropriate to public libraries, and is aware of procedures useful to college li- braries of modest aims; the book is of little use to special or school libraries. Since small is nowhere defined, and since col- lege, public, school, and special libraries vary radically in function, size, and popu- lations served, the book manages to fall neatly between several stools.

     summary: Recom- mended for libraries in need of information about other information services (names, addresses, phone numbers, etc.) for refer- ral purposes, but not recommended to any- one in need of an encyclopedia of informa- tion systems and services.-Pauline Ather- ton, Syracuse University. Not only will these flaws frustrate and confuse the user of this book as a directory, but it will limit its usefulness as an analytic tool to study the availability of information systems for given subject areas.

     summary: In colleges and universities where full faculty equivalency means competition on an even basis with high-powered academicians, most librarians stand only to lose. The threat of nontenure, which means for the faculty termination of employroent, hangs over the young like a sword of Damocles, and because of the high percentage of faculty already on tenure, denial of tenure to those coming up has become commonplace.

     summary: Return on library resources can be increased by: (a) increasing continuity of interest (probably at the program level); (b) increasing the number of poten- tial users, by regional availa- bility; ( c) locating the resources for best use, by transfer if need be; (d) encouraging researchers, espe- cially recruits, to explore avail- able but underused resources. Alternatively, we rec- ommend that, so far as possible within the framework of institutional and pro- vincial rights, library resource strengths be relocated to suit the needs of re- search, rather than unnecessarily dupli- cated.

CLARKE Orientation and Instruction of Graduate Students in the Use of the University Library: A Survey A recent questionnaire on instruction of graduate students in the use of the university library~ submitted to twenty-three large university libraries (and returned by twenty), brings up to date a similar survey reported in CRL in 1958. The problem appears perennial and as yet unsolved, though libraries are giving orientation lectures and tours, providing graduate and faculty manuals, utilizing bibliographers and subiect specialists to consult with graduate students or even to conduct formal bibliographic courses, and developing imaginative programs employing new equipment and techniques to interpret the library to this segment of its public.

The unique contribution of the volume would seem to lie in its summary of auto- mation projects in federal libraries since the other material, on system evaluation and on topics peripheral to the primary discus- sion, seems to duplicate what has.

     summary: What Mr. Mason seems to want us to do, as academic librarians, is to meet some kind of undocumented standards which exist only in his mind and govern the typical teaching faculty member. I have been involved with academic libraries over a period of nearly thirty years, and, al- though my actual experience is mostly at this medium-sized university, I think that I have been around sufficiently to be a fair judge of what has gone on and is going on in both our profession and the academic profession.

In this regard, the task of library supervisors is no different from that of management personnel in other types of organizations.

     summary: Upon occasion Mr. Franklin finds a need to take issue with the idea of judging these works by what he once calls the awe of the sale room, yet he himself seems quite af- fected both by book prices and by the names of collectors, and the work concludes with a so-called Bibliography by David Lin- coln whose only real contribution is the fur- nishing of auction prices. Recognizing that accounts of books can be tedious to read, Mr. Franklin concen- trates upon lively sketches of the printers and the general tenor of their production.

     summary: This drawback is partially compensated for by an extensive title and subject index, consisting of useful entries such as Nine- teenth Century, Southwest, and New Deal as well as the names of works included in the main alphabet. Reprinting of older books and journals is a publishing phenomenon which thrived in the United States particularly in the 1960s because of the enormous educational growth, the subsequent need for instant li- braries, and the free and rather indiscrim- inate How and use of funds.

The purpose of the study was to develop a fund of descriptive and prescriptive information about activities of academic library consortia in the United States with the ultimate aim of providing guidance for libraries that are forming or planning to form consortia.

     summary: Another reason for examining the costs of card catalog systems in contrast to computer systems is the cost of de- centralization, where collections are di- vided among a variety of branch li- braries, resulting in increased costs. If the costs of card catalogs continue to rise and eventually meet the declining costs of computer usage, then at some point in this decade, economic pressures and other factors will force libraries to.

     summary: However, it now ap- pears, if the first volume can be considered typical of those to come, that our skepti- cism was unjustified; for Tebbel has writ- ten a clear, well organized, and detailed synthesis of American publishing history to the Civil War, and while the whole project still strikes us as audacious, we feel com- pelled to compliment both the author and publisher for the remarkable success they have achieved with this first volume.

     summary: However, it now ap- pears, if the first volume can be considered typical of those to come, that our skepti- cism was unjustified; for Tebbel has writ- ten a clear, well organized, and detailed synthesis of American publishing history to the Civil War, and while the whole project still strikes us as audacious, we feel com- pelled to compliment both the author and publisher for the remarkable success they have achieved with this first volume. Some scholars will be critical of the lack of a bibliography in this volume, and yet, the recent publication of Tanselle's Guide to the Study of United States Im- prints, really makes such pedantry super- fluous in a work of this kind.

     summary: From the papers and discussion pro- dpced by this institute two conclusions are drawn: ( 1) non print media is not present- ly organized for its intelligent selection and utilization; and (2) professional bibliog- raphers in the Association for Educational Communications and Technology, the Edu- cational Film Library Association, the American Society for Information Science, a11d the American Library Association have failed to establish standards, while com- mercial companies, less constrained by tra- dition; are answering the cries of collectors and . Public library planners for over three decades have functioned with several basic assumptions regarding library facility loca- tion as it relates to maximum effective usage.

     summary: The issues in copyright application and revision are complex and the literature con- cerning them vast, starting in recent times with thirty-five studies commissioned by the Copyright Office in the late 1950s. It is helpful, therefore, to have at least the key facts of copyright_ and of issues in revision affecting libraries brought together in one place.

     summary: The au- thor concludes, can information and li- brary service be superior, or even adequate, without involvement? Liberal arts college libraries certainly are important, but the study would have broad- er values if some state-supported colleges had been included. Since many of them have given sub- stantial support for library buildings and operations over : the years, the answer to that question holds more than academic in- terest for the librarian.-Edward G.

     summary: There are in this context, therefore, two questions for academic librarians to answer. Acquisitions, reference, and interlibrary- loan librarians should give serious consid-. eration to the acquisition of microfilm of the full catalogs of at least the few major librar- ies which they tend to contact most fre- quently for searches, loans, photocopies, or microfilms.

     summary: In 1973, we find Jesse Shera stoically referring to research. I fully agree with both men when they argue that the library profession has been gen- erally uninterested in research, and I am also convinced that we have reached a point where no substantive gains in the quality of library service will be possible without the initiation of a systematic, aggressive, and long- term research effort.

     summary: The evaluation forms showed that the library faculty tended to endorse promotion more favorably than special merit increase: they cast 51.93 percent yes votes for faculty promotion, and 37.53 percent yes votes for special merit increase (which had been null the pre- vious year ) . A five-page faculty evaluation form, developed in 1968-69 was previously used to evaluate library faculty for re- appointment, promotion, special merit increase, and tenure.

     summary: The results of a national sur- vey of the user services offered by med- ical school libraries in the United States revealed that only twenty-one of the ninety-two libraries surveyed provided formal instruction ( defined as re- quired or elective courses) designed to help medical students and faculty make optimal use of information sources and services. Although universities should be en- couraged to offer more courses in the use of information sources and services, the responsibility for training students and faculty in the use of library services can only rest with the library staff itself.

     summary: LOUIS KAPLAN Participation: Some Basic Considerations on· the Theine Of Acadeine In this article three questions are asked: (1) whether faculty status for librarians automatically leads to greater participation in manage- ment; (2) whether the academic department is the best model for li- brarians; and (3) whether lack of skill in introducing participation may not lead to disillusionment. Although for some observers, faculty status for librarians leads naturally to greater and significant participation in the making of academ- ic-management decisions, our evidence indicates that the granting of faculty status will not necessarily bring about significant participation.

     summary: Six institutions were selected from the California sys- tem of state colleges and universities: all had similar academic objectives, sim- ilar levels of resources and formulas for resource allocation, and a similar range of reference services. If the library is to maintain and enlarge services, librarians must be pre- pared and encouraged to exercise initia- tive in using more library resources to promote available services as well as to provide them consistently, competently, and vigorously.

     summary: In seven tightly-organized chapters the author, who is senior lecturer in informa- · tion work at Liverpool Polytechnic, covers the fascinating historical background to the NLL; its staffing, stock, and records; the operational service; and the ancillary activ- ities (translations, courses, etc.) which con- stitute some of the best examples of the NLL' s creative, flexible, and undogmatic approach to modern library service. He antici- pates replacing today's ineffective leader- ship with young people (of whom he is tenderly fond) drawn from the behavioral and social sciences, moved bv an idealism we have long lost, who ~ill somehow, through greater sensitivity and compassion, superior education, and a more demanding society, revolutionize our present concepts of library service.

     summary: How- ever, patrons unfamiliar with library prac- tices cite publications by personal author, going to considerable lengths to identify some individual to whom the book can be attributed, and the resulting citation by personal author is difficult to track down in the subject-oriented index to the Month- ly Catalog. To a limited extent it is possible to find personal names in the Monthly Catalog prior to September 1947, when the reor- ganized Catalog ceased to index authors or other names associated with a specific pub- lication.

     summary: Because nonacademic (e.g., school, public, government, and spe- cial) library positions greatly outnumber those in academic libraries, it would be re- gretful if library schools were to so favor Ph.D. applicants that these highly-educated scholars would culminate their library edu- cation by vying for the privilege of running a circulation desk in a small town library. I believe, however, that the author IS needlessly worried about the ability of and, in fact, the desirability for library schools to respond to his so-called challenge by al- tering curricula and currying Ph.D.s.

     summary: What role will the cataloger, administrator, reference librarian, academic librarian/ specialist, etc. ( or their future counterparts ) have in the proposed national system of library and information centers? The NCLIS should examine how the recommended national library and information system will affect the knowledge workers who will operate it, and whether its social benefits to society will outweigh its social costs.

     summary: Two reasons and their influence on information systems are discussed: a shift in scientific endeavor from basic science to applied, leading to the emer- gence of programmatic research; and the technology of science itself. For the multidisciplinary research teams which participate in program planning on a large scale, communication through a centralized document collection is as es- sential as the rarity of such systems in practice.

     summary: A survey conducted among academic librarians to determine their re- action to the concept of faculty status as expressed by the ACRL Stan- dards showed a general endorsement of these standards by those li- brarians with advanced educational training, with ALAI AC RL mem- bership, and with experience in public or administrative service. Since ACRL is proposing to represent academic librarians, it should be deter- mined whether academic librarians not only support the concept .

     summary: Until the implications of this basic proposition of par- ticipatory management theory are clearly understood and faced up to, the achievement of faculty status and professorial titles will b.e a somewhat hollow victory. Neverthe- less, it is a problem which must be squarely faced if we are to avoid a situ- ation in which the promise inherent in faculty status and a truly profes- sional working environment becomes, in the end, a :rn,ess of pottage.

While there was substantial agreement that they should keep abreast of what is being published in their areas, and communicate this information to the faculty, there was a strong feeling on the part of many faculty members that bibliographers should not be involved in actual book selection, evaluat- ing the collection as it relates to the cur- riculum, weeding the collection, coordinat- ing book selection practices, or participat- ing in faculty meetings.

     summary: Yes, many noises are made about the need for and use of subject specialists in academic libraries, but did Dr. Moffett make a survey to find how many are in charge of subject departments in academic libraries and what they do? As the study for new or revised stan- dards for academic libraries is getting un- derway, it seems to me that the ACRL Standards Committee might well consider the possibility of a research/systems, or R & D, unit as one of the requirements in the standards for the libraries of senior re- search universities, and as a strong recom- mendation for those academic libraries on the tier immediately below the senior insti- tutions, and so on down the line.

     summary: If the ACRL personal membership were to decline to the 8,000 level, the total revenue available to division activities, once publication costs are sub- tracted, would amount to $70,000. Also, if divisional membership declines initially, which is not an unreasonable assumption, the burden on ACRL's budget to support its publications will increase.

     summary: While many of the observations in this paper may be applicable to circumstances in which state contracts cover only a portion of state- supported academic libraries or other cir- cumstances in which libraries retain the option of whether or not to utilize existing state-wide contracts, the focus of the in- vestigation was upon circumstances in which all academic libraries of state-sup- ported institutions are bound by contracts negotiated by the state. As observed by purchasing agents, li- brarians, and library vendors, the li- brary may enjoy equal benefits through individually-negotiated contracts and integration of other sound business practices into acquisition procedures as the state can gain by the collective con- tract.

     summary: Little sys- tem,atic investigation has been undertak- en of library environments and the im- pact of those environments upon the individual library. Analysis of exchange in terms of these organizational characteristics should lead to the development of models for library exchange, which could be used to identify constraints that may be im- posed upon certain types of library ex- change.

     summary: The introductory section on the theory of library cooperation includes the studies of the social, political, and financial aspects of cooperation. Many essays in this collection deal competently with cooperation as an efficient means for achieving the objectives of library service; some of the authors, however, also reflect on the real effect of cooperation on the li- brary user.

The ten papers produced using this formula constitute Part I of Targets for Research in Library Education and are at once infonnative and provocative, and represent required reading for anyone interested in library education.

     summary: Applying the model to a specific example demonstrates its use in providing control over col- lection development and allowing for equitable distribution of book funds among funding units. These disciplines may constitute fund- ing units; in .turn, the general frame- work of funding units should for the most part reflect the academic structure of the university.2 Each funding unit should be assigned a proportion of the total number of li- brary-resource units to be acquired.

     summary: ALA has demonstrated in numerous ways its ability to play a leadership role in professional concerns such as legislation, intellectual freedom, and personnel development.

     summary: In 1967 the American Council of Learned Societies published the follow- ing statement: 'Research libraries may be defined as institutions whose collec- tions are organized primarily to meet the needs of scholars and so to facilitate ef- fective action on the frontier of every field of knowledge, traditional and novel. . . . In a quite different area, the crea- tion and operation at federal expense of one or perhaps several special libraries to which research libraries could turn with confidence for the loan of journal articles, on the model of the British Na- tional Lending Library for Science and Technology, would provide for access by individual libraries to tens of thou- sands of scholarly journals which might otherwise be unavailable to them.

     summary: In addition, editorial project files, like individual scholarly files, are arranged for a specific purpose rather than for general use, and cannot be made avail- able in their entirety to outside scholars without considerable rearrangement and the creation of additional finding aids. Individual academics, of course, feel free to share their photocopies with their friends or not, but editorial projects as organizations feel obliged to set policies, and here a sense of generosity encoun- ters harsh reality.

For an organization with the right kind of man- agement philosophy, MBO holds promise of a bright future but •tcanned MBO by itself can lead to planned failure.

What this book turns out to be is an in- troductory technical manual (based on a 1971 ALA preconference) on some aspects of electronic data use; e.g., document pro- cessing in ERIC, binary numeration, Boo- lean Logic, and weighing.

     summary: We have here a good mix of people, including library systems personnel, senior adminis- trators, and information specialists, chosen specifically for their professional experience with networking at one stage or another- designing, planning, developing, operating, and evaluating. Given the general tenor of the preceding papers, that seems a trifle optimistic.-Pe- ter G. Watson, University Library, Univer- sity of California, Los Angeles.

     summary: Mr. McGrath is correct in that the model does not explain how one originally di- vides the total budget among funding units. However, whether opti- mal or not, by expressing their related dis- tribution in forms of resource units rather than dollars, a clearer impression of col- lection development will result.

     summary: We have thus seen that there are two aspects to good will and con- fidence -readers, with that uncertain feeling, not sure the items they wish will actually be on the shelves or otherwise available, and library staff undertaking programs of information and installing security devices to protect the material under their care. In their article Project Library Ripoff, Clyde Hendrick and Marjorie E. Murfin summarize students' views on the mutilation of library materials.

     summary: In studying library cooperation as a process of exchange, it is possible to approximate its power to affect the ability of libraries to meet their professional obligations. wHEN SAMUEL s. GREEN UNFURLED THE BANNER of library cooperation in 1876, he was expressing two concerns: the need for a single library to provide a level of service which would satisfy its clients, and the concomitant need for a regularity in the means by which the librarian could increase the possibilities of service to a level nearer to the li- brarian's own expectations of what might be satisfactory service.1

     summary: In addition, as Gibb's study notes, an in- crease in group size steadily increases the proportion of group members reporting feelings of threat and less willingness to initiate contributions. Varied attitudes and presuppositions of group members force individual contributors to think out and jus- tify proposed solutions; also, the different perspectives of group members allow them to see ramifi- cations of solutions not identifi- able to a single individual.

     summary: Unfortunately, the authors failed to look for any correlation be- tween teaching methods and usage of reserve material. The difference in actual use between the method which entails one lengthy reading list of reserve materials given out at the beginning of the term, the group one data, and the use of fre- quent short assignments, as illustrated by group two data, is quite marked.

     summary: The communication network that Hayes proposes would use the hardware and some software of an existing time-sharing system to facilitate the trans- mittal of interlibrary loan requests and oth- er ILL messages; to refer requests to bibli- ographic data centers for better citations than appear on the request forms and for location information; to serve as a clearing house for billing and payment of fees; to provide statistical reports on interlibrary loan traffic and workload; and to provide access to on-line data bases. Mter evaluating each of the options and the possible impact of their implementation, the staff recommended that a system of payment be instituted that would allow all participating libraries to re- cover partial cost for interlibrary loans.

     summary: The fact that Dr. Leyh was Germany's leading li- brarian during the critical three-score years following the turn of the century, however, does mean that the work is replete with food for the thought of those who would ponder the politicization of libraries. Dr. Leyh appears to have conceptualized his philosophy of librarianship quite fully during his student days at Munich, Stras- bourg, and Tiibingen between 1896 and 1901; in essence it was that libraries have a high humanistic and scholarly purpose that can and must keep aloof of ideological and political issues.

     summary: Formulas describing these patterns can be applied to libraries to provide a tool for defining library goals and analyzing library be- havior. Whenever librarians gather, be it for a library staff meeting or for a formal conference of a library association, a discussion of library goals or objectives is inevitable.

     summary: It is the intent of this paper to demonstrate, through a survey of some of the recent literature of information science, the extent to which the two fields are mutually sup- porting and to suggest that this mutual support may lead to further progress in both. While there is no generally accepted definition of information science, it is possible to adopt a tentative 'definition by enumeration by referring to the most useful literature survey in the field.

     summary: The conclusions drawn by Baaske, Tol- liver, and Westerberg in a way corroborate the results of my earlier study, that is that overdue notices appear to have an impor- tant reminder effect and improve the return rate of overdue books (p.359). Thus it would seem that a true test of the effect of overdue notices could only be con- ducted in a less contaminated environment, utilizing a more homogeneous group of borrowers, and focusing on book returns in a particular subject area.

     summary: West Chester State College librarians have faculty status; we have had it for about fifty years, but in the last four or five years we have realized the real meaning of the term. West Chester librarians drafted a po- sition statement to West Chester's rep- resentative at the bargaining table: We believe that an academic library is the very core of the college commu- nity, that its teaching and research functions are closely allied with those taking place in the classroom, that its specialized functions complement and support the various academic programs of the college on all levels, and that the vital services provided by dedicat- ed teacher-librarians are in every way as professional and as essential to the academic well being of the college and its students as are those contributed by our colleagues in the classroom.

     summary: Only half the book actually deals with international documents or with libraries' work with these, while the remainder is on international organizations themselves or on their libraries as special libraries, with no particular focus on documents. The articles on documents vary in qual- ity, but have one thing in common: they are relatively old.

     summary: There are discern- ing, appreciative essays on the work of Carl Sandburg, Merrill Moore, Lee Anderson, Oscar Williams, and M. B. Tolson. So hard pressed is the au- thor to justify his bringing these disparate works together in book form that he asserts their common theme is nothing more than that struck inadvertently by the later discovery of Amy Lowell's lines apostro- phizing the Library of Congress, and America-'this vast confused beauty.'

For years it has been our practice to make daily shopping trips to the Tech Coop (the MIT branch of the Harvard Coop) to fill orders by picking books off the shelves.

     summary: Just as it has taken the aerospace industry from 1903 to 1973 to move from Kitty Hawk to a probe of Mars, it is likely we shall see (in some shorter span than that sev- enty years) library technology having the impact and capabilities that its most enthusiastic proponents advocate for it. In critical budget times, answers to the urgent fiscal problems confront- ing administrators and trustees are not likely to come from the presently avail- able hardware and systems convenient- ly described as library technology.

     summary: From a tally of reference desk hours reported, it was found that 33 percent of the total hours the reference desk was staffed was filled by nonprofessionals (reference assistants and student assistants), while 67 percent of the total time was filled by professionals. Sub- stantially more professional librarians work more reference desk hours than do the nonprofessionals in the remain- ing divisions of hours worked per week.

     summary: STUDY OF CIRCULATION STATISTICS Circulation statistics for periods be- fore and after the start of LENDS were analyzed to determine if the avail- ability of LENDS was related to an in- crease in library books circulated to fac- ulty. It can be seen that LENDS had an ef- fect on the three main ways in which faculty obtain library books: ( 1) tele- phone requests increased from 0 to 21.6 percent; ( 2) books obtained by going to the library decreased by 16.4 percent; and ( 3 ) books obtained by sending someone to the library decreased by 7.8 percent.

     summary: First, providing biblio- graphic services is a reference function; and, second, in order to give users fullest advantage of total library services this office should not be separate from, or in competition with, other reference functions of the library. The function of this person (called information services librarian in some institutions) can be broken down into five areas: coordination, promotion, training, searching, and consultation.

Since many students, as a mere func- tion of their age, are inexperienced, they want to know how.

     summary: The major policy tested was the impact of .a one-hour limit on reserve books. As a broad generalization, the full data in Tables 1 through 3 also suggest that to move from virtually complete service with some waiting to virtually complete service without delay would, in general, require about a 60 percent increase in reserve books.

     summary: The chapter on How Books Are Marketed describes the complex and often cumbersome methods by which books are distributed to readers in the United States, and should be of par- ticular interest to acquisitions librarians. The former is presented in a straight- forward fashion giving much useful infor- mation on the historical background of these collections and their achievements, especially in the years following the widely acclaimed Scarbrough Report of 1947 and the Hayter Report of 1961-two national surveys which greatly contributed to the subsequent development of area studies and area libraries in Great Britain.

     summary: The method chosen for the project speci- fied the compilation of the bibliographic records from the title pages of a sample consisting of all pre-1801 books in all Cam- bridge and Oxford libraries cataloged un- der the letter 0, except for three college libraries which were recorded in their en- tirety. Lately in the United States, there has been much discussion of coopera- tive schemes in library development in area studies.

     summary: Aside from its principal objective the project produced a wealth of statistical data about the distribution of materials by date, language, and numbers of copies of works in the various libraries; about the relative merits and costs of various methods in cap- turing bibliographic data for machine-read- able transcription; about the problems in- volved in several methods and devices used in the transcription; and about the prob- lems which arose in computer matching and printing of bibliographic records, rang- ing from identification of data structures to representation of characters in a large array of languages. There is much in the pages of the LOC Report pointing in the direction of a sophisticated simplicity inherent in biblio- graphic data as contrasted with our current- ly prevailing and unquestioned reliance on systematically exhaustive accumulation of interpreted bibliographic data as a basis for future direction of computerized manage- ment of bibliographic records.

     summary: Therefore, the literature of li- brary management was reviewed in or- der to establish what recognition has been given to Theory Y and what use has been made of this concept in the management of library employees. Penalizing errors and inciting defensiveness not only will discourage initiative but also will pro- mote the concealment of mistakes, thereby hindering communication and providing a distorted view of opera- tions.17 Finally, the ultimate expression of Theory Y management may be realized if there are opportunities for an em- ployee to identify his responsibilities with his desire for self -actualization, Maslow's highest level of motivation.

Archivists must also query the curious practice of separating the official correspon- dence generated by union officers from the rest of the records of the United Automo- bile Workers and the designation of such records as private papers.

The major areas for cooperation among libraries at the pres- ent are: cooperative acquisitions based on subject specialization (with particu- lar reference to acquisition of period- icals) among university libraries; com- pilation of a union catalog and union list of serials; development of a storage center for manuscripts and rare books; and the establishment of bibliograph- ical centers at regional levels.

     summary: College and Research Libraries MAURICE B. LINE and ALEXANDER SANDISON Practical Interpretation of Citation and Library Use Studies Most studies of journal citations and library use are of little if any practical use to librarians and information system designers because of inadequate data collection and analysis. Questions such as the validity of citations as indicators of use, size of sample needed (of sources and of actual citations) in view of the wide variability between journals and vol- umes within journals, the relative use- fulness of different sources of citations, the differences between synchronous and diachronous data, and the problems of forecasting future use, have been dis- cussed elsewhere.

     summary: For example, from 1967-69 to 1972 the price of chemistry and physics period- icals rose 186 percent, compared to only 26 percent for art periodicals.2 If each department receives a constant share of the library's budgeted expenditures, there must be a relative reduction in the number of resource units acquired by departments whose price indexes rise more than average. Kohut considers this reduction inappropriate, since the ini- tial division of resource units was pre- sumably optimal.

     summary: Five of the articles in- cluded which were reprinted from Special Libraries have also been reprinted previous- ly (with one additional paper) by Special Libraries Association as Recent Practices in Map Libraries ( 1971 ) , · and were orig- inally presented in June 1969 at a panel on Problems of the Smaller Map Libraries. It is a bit costly, but I recommend it to those students of map librarianship who have already read and digested the previ- ously mentioned material.

     summary: A contrary view, not specifically related to libraries, is expressed by Strauss, who cites four possible dysfunctional aspects of decision making by groups: individuals whose opinions have been rej.ected by the group may be alienated; the ex- pectations aroused by group participa- tion lead to further demands that man- agement cannot always satisfy; the pro- cess of group decision making may prove frustrating to several in the group; though participation niay bring about group cohesiveness, cohesiveness might be turned against, as well as in favor of, management.24 Bundy sees relief from tension through the formation in academic li- braries of departments modeled on those found elsewhere in academic in- stitutions. and decision making must not be .separated, and that at the top of the hierarchy in a heteronomous orga- nization responsibility cannot be shift- ed.

     summary: Repeatedly, this reviewer has been con- cerned with library standards abroad, e.g., when editing the issue of Library Trends, October 1972, on standards and most re- cently in an article on the subject to be published in volume 16 of the Encyclope- dia of Library and Information Science. Asked by Unesco, Withers has prepared a set of standards which might be applied in devel- oping countries, but he recognizes the fact that the level of library service depends not only on the desire but on the capacity of a country to provide the resources needed.

The introduction states that the purpose of the meeting was to examine the problems of acquisition [of Third World publications]; the availability of materials in European libraries both for reference and for lending; and the feasibility of set- ting up a European centre for the collec- tion of such material, to be available for loan.

It is particularly encouraging to note, however, that the seminar placed special emphasis on the need for general availabili- ty as opposed to widespread ownership of these materials, going so far as to suggest the establishment of a European lending library for Third World publications.

     summary: College and Research Libraries 176 I College & Research Libraries • March 1976 search collections and scholarly work of large public libraries as they may relate to his major theme. Davies argues that public libraries, founded by nineteenth-century upper- and middle-class philanthropists convinced of the perfectibility of humankind, eager to uplift the masses, and persuaded that read- ing was intrinsically virtuous and refining, were, like other educational and cultural institutions, started by similar people and for similar re~sons (lyceums, athenaeums, literary and scientific societies, mechanics' institutes), paternalistic and elitist.

     summary: To the Editor: Hans Panofsky' s Bibliography of Africana may be every bit as bad as Peter Duignan says it is (C&RL, November 1975), but at that it is no worse than the judgment of whoever selects the C&RL reviewers (and Mr. Duignan's judgment in accepting the assignment). Is she saying that reviewers should not review books in fields in which they have written?

     summary: In the past, many believed that an effi- ciently operating How of work from receipt to shelf-readiness of materials, with appro- priate bibliographic records prepared and distributed, constituted good management. With revision in attitudes toward work, life-style, and commitment resulting from the realization of the individual's legal and moral rights and psychological needs, the organization of the work-How has become relatively simple in comparison to the com- plications of the human elements to be reckoned with in its accomplishment.

Since he is so widely known as a consultant on aca- demic library building design, one may forget that his most significant contribu- tions have been in personnel develop- ment, financial planning, cooperative cataloging, applications of microfilm, education for librarianship, counsel to the national libraries, and development of cooperative programs.

     summary: Clearly, library management and those not directly involved with some of the basic is- sues of collective bargaining in libraries are curious choices for presenting a fair and complete picture of library unionization. (Available from Publications Office, Graduate School of Library Science, 249 Armory Building, Champaign, IL 61820) (LC 75-25240) (ISBN 0-87845-042-4) The entry of librarians into organized la- bor relations presents a largely misunder- stood challenge to the ethics of librarian- ship, even though it is estimated that in the United States some 33 ·percent of school li- brarians, 20 percent of academic librarians, and 10 percent of public librarians already are represented by collective bargaining.

     summary: As beneficiary of the Astor Library in 1848, New York had been favored by the services of the premier endowed reference library, but by the end of the century its early good fortune clearly was a factor in delaying the establishment of library services suitable to all the people of the com- munity. He claims that staff reaction to management is largely a function of individual personality regard- less of management style whereas Likert claims that individual reactions can be modified by changes in organizational en- vironment, particularly the leadership style.

     summary: If a constant concern of librarians is to establish criteria for weeding books and if physicists and other scientists are less likely to use books than any other mode of information transmission, the implication is that libraries are buying books no one needs. A study of circula- tion records of books purchased be- tween July 1971 and June 1973 also supports other findings that after initial interest the circulation of the majority of new books drops close to zero.

     summary: When Clack studied LC's treatment of black subject headings, she concluded that its subject analysis is not adequate to accommodate black literature in a systemat- ic array as a unique body of literature, that there were inconsistencies between headings listed in the index and those list- ed in the outline, and that use of the sys- tem often fails to lead to the retrieval of relevant documents. As Arthur Spingarn assembled his vast personal li- brary of black literature during the first half of this century, he knew early that bib- liography, like book collecting, is never an end in itself.

     summary: Cave devotes short chapters to discussing the nature of the rare book, acquisitions, processing, care and restoration, housing (custodianship) , organization, publicity and publications (exploitation), and the training of rare book librarians. After all, if one agrees that rare books and special collections constitute a special cate- gory of materials requiring different treat- ment from the mass of library materials as to acquisition, processing, preservation, and exploitation, then problems are seen to emerge which are indigenous to the materi- al, not endemic to ·a geographical point in space and time.

     summary: Be- cause Metcalfe possesses a reasonable un- derstanding of information retrieval as it developed since the mid-twentieth century, Recent Publications I 479 the reader will find the last three of the book's eight chapters most useful. Then there are conclusions which are supported by no evidence at all, such as Metcalfe's be- lief that Herbert Putnam's predecessor as Librarian of Congress, John Young, was more responsible for LC' s existing thought patterns on information retrieval than Put- nam (p.91-92).

     summary: Throughout its ten years of existence, the LTR has offered a number of objective and clearly presented reports and evaluations on many library products, systems, and ser- vices. Simultaneously, close coopera- tion with competent, national laboratories has produced reports with very high tech- nical standards, thus quickly turning the LTR into the librarian's version of the Con- sumer Reports.

     summary: For larger libraries, requiring reliable and most recent information about library equipment, supplies, and services, the bimonthly LTR is almost indispensable, in spite of its $100 subscription tag. A recurrent theme in his article is the cost effectiveness of such systems, and he emphasizes that this subject is the area of great vacuum in the literature.

     summary: Much of the report is con- cerned with development of the Core Bib- liographical System -the virtually com- plete automation of LC processing activ- ities. In his paper on transition, John Rather is candid but optimistic in detailing the problems to be faced and solved before both systems reach full development, ex- pected before the end of the 1970s.

     summary: This study surpasses all others on two major points: it was done on a nation-wide scale, and it encompassed aU types of libraries except school libraries. The ma- terial is far from out-of-date for, as the au- thor advocates, the study of reference books should emphasize the books themselves, their time and place, their history as shown in their prefaces, as well as in the often-re- peated criteria for reference book evalua- tion, and the reader should seek historical perspective and understanding in using this collection.

     summary: The ostensible purpose of the Boston Conference of 1974 was to bring about a greatly increased measure of understanding among those who administer, interpret, and use South Asia library materials. If something is done about it, then the Boston Conference of 197 4 will be regarded in years to come as a landmark meeting that initiated a change in the course of South Asia library development.

For instance, the statement is made that the new low cost of video equip- ment (a portable black-and-white camera- recorder combination available for about $2,000) makes this equipment attractive to many libraries.

     summary: There is no mention of either budgets for acquisition or costs of modern maps, an unfortunate omission as these are major problems in map libraries today. And since the Association of American Library Schools had as its sole interest the educa- tion of librarians and the development of library schools, one wonders why it is not given more detailed and systematic treat- ment.

     summary: In the chapter on the classification of local maps, the author takes on the prob- lems of very small areas within cities and parishes and suggests using the British na- tional topographic series numbering (na- tional grid) at scales up to 1 : 1,250 to break down these areas; this is an obvious solution for a country that has such a de- tailed topographic series. The volume, Function and Organization of a National Documentation Centre in a Developing Country, produced by the FID Developing Country Working Group, under the direction of Harald Schutz, presents a statement of the nation's role in establish- ing and managing national documentation, information, and library systems.

Many times these records are useful in the identifi'- cation of the thieves and thus are valu- able in later prosecution and recovery of stolen items.

     summary: The amount of material available and acquired in microform has increased steadily, although there has been no trend toward the acquisition of books and jour- nals directly in microform. Relying heavily on interviews with students using the library of the U Diversity of Giessen in 1971, as well as on published reports, Wie- gand concludes that students, insofar as they have any understanding of the role of librarians at all, rank them-and their card catalogs-well behind faculty or browsing when selecting books or following a line of inquiry.

The chapter reasoned that the most effective means of present- ing the case for librarians to other fac- ulty and administrators on campus would be to reinforce each position con- cerning a faculty right or responsibility with evidence for the stance in the form of data gathered from institu- tions claiming faculty status for librari- ans.

     summary: The interesting data supplied in this col- lection of quantitative surveys of scientific review sources are from counts made in the early 1970s from journals held by the Countway Library of Medicine at Harvard and the science and engineering libraries at M.I.T. Insight on such variables as extent of coverage, time lag, duplication patterns, length of review, subject orientation, and the relative emphasis on U.S. and British imprints is furnished in successive chapters for general biomedical books, books on clin- ical medicine, general scientific books, and publications in the special disciplines of mathematics, astronomy, physics, chemis- try, geology, and engineering. Few science librarians would deny the repeated assertions that book reviews are a valuable means of keeping abreast of current research and of evaluating and se- lecting new acquisitions.

Formal bibliographic description has been most ably supplied by Thomas Lange, assistant curator of printed books at the Morgan Library, and for that alone the book would be an invaluable tool for li- braries (although fuller descriptions of many of the books are to be found in R. V. Tooley's English Books with Coloured Plates and the catalogs of the color-plate book collection of J. R. Abbey, to which reference is made).

     summary: What emerges from Access is a clear picture of what Canadian libraries are doing to organize and service their govern- ments' publications. Certain trends are dis- cernible: large academic libraries tend towards separate collections, public libraries integrate their documents more than aca- demic libraries, strong provincial docu- ments collections are found wanting in smaller academic and public libraries.

     summary: Several times the author mentions that academic librarians have severe prob- lems in collective bargaining because of their minority position in the bargaining unit, but little comment is made as to how to solve this dilemma. The work concludes with a summary of the prospects for collective bargaining, in- cluding a thoughtful examination of its im- pact on libraries as well as librarians.

     summary: This was accom- plished by means of unobtrusive comput- er searches, whereby the users were sur- prised with search results (either bibliogra- phies or actual documents) based on the users' published course descriptions. Research- ers are more worried about missing relevant papers than they are with seeing irrelevant titles; in other words, most will want searches tailored to emphasize recall rather than precision.

It is contended here that a statement such as: Additions to ARL library collections remained at a generally static level in 1975-76, with forty-seven libraries adding more volumes and forty-one li- braries adding fewer volumes than they did in the previous year.

     summary: Among the articles selected are such classics in Hebrew printing history as Joshua Bloch's Early Hebrew Printing in Spain and Portugal, Venetian Printers of Hebrew Books, Hebrew Printing in Riva di Trento, Hebrew Printing in Naples, and The Library's Roman Hebrew In- cunabula. Not only must the list of places which used Hebrew printing be expanded (it is hardly conceivable that Jewish communities in, let us say, a city of the size and importance of Marseilles have not utilised Hebrew type, even up to 1946 when the gazetteer was first revised and published separately), but also the information furnished can stand correction, sometimes with little effort.

     summary: It was a period of major growth for all aca- demic libraries, reaching its peak with the Parry Report of 1967, giving official sup- port to the need for increasing financial support to university libraries, but coming back rudely to earth less than a decade later with the 1976 report of the Atkinson committee (reviewed in the July 1977 issue of C&RL) with its concept of the self-re- newing library. Few librarians will question the value that intellectual methodology offers library decision makers in selecting among alterna- tive models for library planning.

     summary: In discussing this problem, Roberts records the opportunities librarians missed: University librarians had failed either to establish, or to convey to the world at large, the nature of the relationship between quality of scholarship, research education, and the quality of library collections and services. In the opening contribution, Norman Roberts, University of Sheffield, provides a broad overview of British university librarianship over the past 100 years.

     summary: Wright correctly states that the importance of private research libraries will loom more important as the strength of the university research libraries dwindles. Apart from the observations that librar- ies, publishers, and authors should be subsi- dized, probably by the federal government, and that continuing research be conducted to establish continuing dialog, the reviewer found little to indicate that the authors had developed the data into proposed joint ac- tions.

Wright correctly states that the importance of private research libraries will loom more important as the strength of the university research libraries dwindles.

     summary: The policies selected for reprinting are in three categories: public library policies, academic library policies, and partial li- brary policies by category. The German handbook's essay on library instruction draws on American models; al- though it does little more than summarize current thinking in German libraries on this important topic, I found this straight- forward overview preferable to the article in the Encyclopedia, which is flawed with trendy social science jargon.

     summary: The policies selected for reprinting are in three categories: public library policies, academic library policies, and partial li- brary policies by category. In the words of the editor, The academic and public library questionnaire survey answers, although certainly not conclusive of any trends, do provide some interesting com- mentary on what happens in the practical world of library acquisitions.

     summary: If one doubts the need for this new collection, it should be remembered that many libraries do not have acquisition policies. · Part V, the last quarter of the book, treats explicitly information services as they are to affect librarianship now or in the near future.

     summary: The essays raise a number of interesting issues: the contrast in purpose and point of view between subject bibliography, as con- ceived by the academic community, and li- brary cataloging (essay 1); the scholarly contribution of book reviews and distortion of their scientific function by evaluative perspectives imported from literary and art criticism (essay 4); ways in which conven- tional bibliographic styles and standards suppress scientifically valuable data about books (essay 7) ; the potential of biblio- graphic organization for shaping the char- acter of a field of study (essay 8) and for illuminating trends in a subject's develop- ment (essays 9, 10, 13). These editorials, some of which have been reprinted previously in journals, are here collected in book form under the editorship of two of the principal collab- orators on MHBRI.

     summary: To concentrate on academic libraries: Did you know that a one-time expenditure of $1.5 billion would buy us all the books we are missing and that we would only also have to increase our annual expenditure by about a third, from $300 million to $400 million a year, and we could keep steady? Yet did you also know that, in total, collec- tions in academic libraries are 99 percent adequate but that two-year colleges are 50 percent adequate and public four-year col- leges are exactly 100 percent adequate; that private universities are 177 percent adequate, while public universities are only 111 percent adequate?

     summary: It is true that, barring catastrophe, there are demographic certainties ahead-for example, a startling reduction in· the number of eighteen-year-olds over the next decade-that have profound implications for higher education. Let me suggest, first of all, some patterns and developments in higher education that will be as viable in the 1980s as they have been in the past.

     summary: One statistic alone may reveal more of the future of academic library service than any other: The average freshman enrolling in college today comes with an experience of 15,000 hours of television viewing. Most elements of academic library service have been designed for the traditional resi- dential campus.

     summary: Libraries are in an excellent position to offer potential for self-actualization and fulfillment of employees' needs at both the professional and the support level because library work is socially significant and can easily be restructured to achieve individual and organizational compatibility. In contrast to most other studies on library job descriptions, which are usually descriptions of general and rather vague duties, their task analysis is specific and spells out in detail the exact functions and duties of librarians, techni- cians, and clerical workers for various li- brary subsystems.

     summary: The matter has been further confused by the wishes of a number of university libraries that such collections primarily for undergraduate use not be called undergraduate libraries. However, the 1960s were boom years for undergraduate libraries, and by 1972 there were forty-nine collections in· the country.

     summary: The study's purpose is to reduce the dangers of arbitrary cuts and restrictions on the operation of academic libraries and to foster their continued health. It was inspired by the shrinkage of construction funds plaguing British academic libraries and the concurrent coming of age of national library services that have prompted the revisionist concept of the self-contained library ( cf., review of Capital Provision for University Libraries in C&RL, July 1977).

     summary: Cogent suggestions accompany the stimulating analyses and reviews of each type of library, with the most urgent needs for development seeming to be in the health sciences and public libraries. Two aspects of this survey are of particu- lar interest: the surveyors' acknowledgment of the wide use of public library resources by college students (with good ·supporting data) and the division and integration of the surveyors' responsibilities.

It is not, however, written at an elementary or superficial level and will perhaps find its greatest usefulness as a standard reference for researchers and for practicing librarians who take an objective, evaluative approach to library services and programs.

     summary: Frank L. Schiek' s years of experience with library statistics makes his brief paper on problems in comparative library science a solid con- tribution. Including D. J. Foskett's analysis of comparative studies in other fields is an excellent idea and helps to draw parallels between theoretical problems in comparative studies in such fields as educa- tion, history, and linguistics.

Second, bound vol- umes of engineering journals occupy 55 percent of available space in the engineer- ing collection, but they account for only 13 percent of circulation despite a liberal policy that allows journals to circulate for two weeks just as any other book.

     summary: Data and information were gathered from faculty, student, and library sur- veys, interviews, and by task forces in the areas of management and structural processes, human resources, library resources and services, and technology and facilities. Academic libraries in England have fallen on hard times indeed : Norman Roberts, writing in the November 1977 C& RL, touched upon some of the dire fiscal realities now facing English college and uni- versity libraries and enumerated several steps they are taking to curtail spending; the controversial Atkinson Report (reviewed in the July 1977 C&RL) , recommended a self-renewing library of limited size (a Ia Daniel Gore) as the government-imposed model for future academic library develop- ment.

     summary: Because each institution has established its own patterns of organization and criteria for rarity and special status, it is impossible, and probably unnecessary, to obtain agreement on universal and standard criteria for Japanese rare books. Perhaps the most important bibliography of Japanese rare books in the United States is now being corvpiled by Andrew Kuroda of the Orientalia Division of the Library of Congress.

     summary: College and Research Libraries HERBERT S. WHITE and KAREN MOMENEE Impact of the Increase in Library Doctorates A questionnaire was mailed to recipients of library doctoral degrees between 1930 and 1975 to determine the present and preferred areas of activity, evaluations of the doctoral degree as a factor in obtaining and performing present duties, and self-assessments of involvement in library research. The second is a survey of pre- sent holders of library doctorate degrees to determine how they perceive the impor- tance of the degree to the performance of their tasks and to attempt a ·relationship be- tween their academic credentials and their research scholarship.

     summary: The underlying assumption of both forms of Bradford is the same: If items are ranked by productivity from high to low, there is a relationship between cumulative (and there- fore relative) productivity and the logarithm of cumulative items and thus the rank. Nls = 17.624 To obtain the actual productivity, in transactions, for any most productive frac- tion x of items, it is necessary to multiply 107,152, the total items population count, by the fraction, then look at table 1, inter- polating as necessary, for the actual number of transactions produced by xN items, e.g.: Let x = 0.10, then xN = 10,715.

     summary: Beyond this introduc- tion, the librarian can make use of detailed reports dealing with five basic topics: the deacidification of paper, the salvage of water-damaged library materials, the man- ufacturing of permanent paper, the causes of paper deterioration, and the establishing of paper testing methods. In the study of the causes of paper deterioration and the means to pre- dict paper stability, one conclusion is outstanding-the paper in books must be preserved rather than rescued.

Martin , Pennsyl- vania State University, University Park .

There is a smattering of other articles on such topics as women in academic libraries, bibliographic standards, collection develop- ment, and instructional technology that show a workmanlike approach to the prob- lems but suffer that common failure of arti- cles in festchriften-they are a little too contrived and a little too lackluster.

     summary: No moving of materials was required, and no additional circulation stations are provided, keeping the budget oriented toward collection development, not toward maintaining cumbersome reserve operations. In collection development, as in all practical affairs, the crying need is always for the in- sight and judgment of the competent man, and the implications of this for university li- braries should not remain without emphasis.-Paul Schuchman, C!ltalog Li- brarian, St. John's University, Jamaica, New York.

     summary: It is likely that pub- lic libraries, . which comprised almost 30 percent of the NELINET sample, are more likely to borrow in-state, especially through the medium of state library systems, than academic libraries. The survey data results about public library activity support the conclusion of Rolland Stevens that academic libraries are only a part of the total ILL picture.

     summary: College and Research Libraries Angus Snead Macdonald, who advanced the development of library stacks and was an early proponent of the modular plan of li- brary construction; Richard Rogers Bowker, who was a major figure in library publishing for some sixty years; Frederick Winthrop Faxon, who promoted subscription and re- lated library services; Halsey William Wil- son, who devoted more than half a century to compiling and issuing library indexes and abstract journals; and Hans Peter Luhn, whose work at IBM led to information re- trieval programs, the early concept of the key-word-in-context (KWIC) index, and programs for the selective dissemination of information (SDI). Notable in the latter category is Joseph Cummings Rowell, who headed the Univer- sity of California library at Berkeley for forty-four years (1875-1919); was a founder and first president of the Library Associa- tion of Central California (later to become the California Library Association); served as vice-president of the American Library Association; initiated interlibrary loan ser- vices on the west coast; compiled the first union list of periodical holdings in the San Francisco Bay area and made other con- tributions in the areas of classification, peri- odical indexing, and library building plan- ning; and was successful in acquiring for the university the Hubert Howe Bancroft li- brary of Californiana and western American history.

     summary: Collections are measured in thousands, annual expenditures for books might well be less than $2,500, and the size of the staff might range from a total of one to five or six persons. In India, however, where all too many li- brarians are still held personally accountable for book losses and where the professor- in-charge is still the nominal if not actual head of the college library, the librarian's struggle for recognition as a professional and for a significant measure of authority tends to compound these problems.

     summary: The chapter on theft problems of journal, nonprint, and special collections is slightly less satisfying, perhaps because the work done in these areas is less complete and theft problems less easily evaluated. The author argues that if the in- ventory is considered as a tool to achieve other valuable ends, for example, weeding, preservation, etc., in addition to calculating book losses, it may be a cost-effective pro- cedure.

     summary: I doubt that this work could serve its primary purpose, i.e., as a textbook, in the U.S., but it may be of interest to specialists in, and teachers of, on-line systems for its comparative approach.-Peter G. Watson, California State University, Chico. While a number of the studies have important implications for academic librar- ians, not least because scientific and techni- cal acquisitions are swallowing an increasing portion of the materials budget, the em- phasis is on improved productivity and efficiency of industrial information systems.

     summary: The nature and extent of the revisions are of interest because these revisions allow us to watch the evolution of Katz' ideas about the fundamental questions facing reference librarians. The evalua- tive comments on reference tools are suc- cinct, informative, and laudably readable.

     summary: With the author's emphasis on solicitation for university libraries, this work will appeal most to that audience. The title of this book is misleading, for what we really have here are suggestions on how to solicit special collections materials.

     summary: These two works explore the use of slide/ tapes or tape-slides for library instruction in academic libraries from American and British viewpoints. Indeed the book will be, by its compre- hensiveness, the standard bibliography in its field, going as it does beyond books, pam- phlets, and periodical articles to encompass the numerous master's and doctoral theses in library history and parts of larger works such as festschriften.

     summary: This is very unlikely , since many university libraries located in urban settings have always rendered a very high level of reference services to residents of the community and neighboring colleges. The pro- grams of many libraries can be enriched, collections more fully exploited, and service enhanced if ways are found to properly use this talent.

     summary: INDIFFERENCE AND IGNORANCE At the outset, I must say that a number of college librarians whom one might have expected to be concerned about the national network and national policy questions seem, for whatever reasons, to be to all appear- ances quite contentedly asleep-and maybe even dead. College and Research Libraries WILLIAM A. MOFFETT TOWARD THE WHITE HOUSE CONFERENCE AND BEYOND College Libraries and a National Information Policy: Whistling in the Graveyard An informal survey of college librarians on a national information policy in- dicated a variety of responses, ranging from lack of knowledge, indif- ference, and confusion to enthusiasm.

     summary: In short, the last several years have wit- nessed a significant thrust in the direction of enlarging the area of public records and public control over the documentary evi- dence of doing the public's business. If they are in fact public records, they belong to the public, and public ar- chivists have a responsibility to ensure the preservation and availability of those public records .

Since students in the course write reports based on library research, li- brary orie~tation is a regular part of the curriculum and had previously been hand- led by having them take conventional lec- ture tours.

     summary: College and Research Libraries KEITH GREEN An Evaluation of Citation-Return on Reprints A ten-year retrospective study of reprint distribution and their subsequent citation was undertaken, which indicated that the citation-return on re- prints is low, although distribution of reprints may have aided in increasing the citation rate. Reprints are purchased for distribution often at high cost to either the author in- stitutions or federal and state agencies; in addition, the cost of mailing reprint request cards and reprints increases as postal costs rise.

This text should supersede many of the earlier (and poorer) articles in the field and should be basic reading, for some time, for North American map librarians, whether experienced or beginners, and for nonmap librarians who want to know what is hap- penging in the field.-joan Winearls, Uni- versity of Toronto .

     summary: I 81 and narrow arguments among librarians, publishers, and authors that have sur- rounded the emergence of the Copyright Act of 1976, but rather with analyzing the constitutional and theoretical foundations of copyright and with formulating an intellec- tually sound framework for the continuing public policy debate on the proper limits of copyright protection. Seltzer examines the possible impact of the 1976 Copyright Act on the workings of copyright in the U.S., especially on the areas of exempted use and fair use, and concludes that the new law does nothing to resolve the old problems in these areas and has furthermore introduced troublesome new problems.

     summary: A highlight of the book is the discussion of the evaluation of user education programs. This book has a great deal to offer those interested in library instruction-especially those who might be setting up or reevaluating their own library instruction programs.

     summary: Probably the weakest sections of the book are those dealing with in-depth descriptions of existing instruction programs-at the Univer:. sity of Sussex (England), Chalmers University of Technology (Sweden), Roskilde University Centre (Denmark)-and a general overview of programs in the United Kingdom, Scan- dinavia, and the U.S.A. If you are already in- volved in instruction programs, you might be bored by variations of the same theme; the authors become bogged down in detail ofhow we do it good in our library. A highlight of the book is the discussion of the evaluation of user education programs.

     summary: We call our program Concerned Service and it pays off for academic libraries through- out the U.S.A. Let us show youl For a'ny book in print (U.S. and Canada), send your orders to the Book House. From a practical vantage point, the most important part of this book is chapter 4, where selection techniques and sources (primarily British) are identified; cataloging, classifica- tion, and indexing are explored (the authors support for NBM the use of the same standard cataloging principles as used for books); and a manual of practice highlights the variations between cataloging books and nonbook mate- rials.

     summary: While slanted toward geographic themes, the chap- ter on library use could be read with profit by anyone unfamiliar with library practices. Section 3, Making It Work, presents is- sues to be analyzed by colleges when entering into a program for older Americans , such as the content and structure of the curriculum , the preparation of teachers, the need to plan programs with older students rather than for them, and the resulting intergenerational student mix.

     summary: Considering the importance of indexes for the use of newspaper titles, one would be inclined to purchase only indexed titles.

     summary: In summary, this text does a very nice job of outlining design and efficiency con- siderations for information data bases and retrieval systems.-Eleanor Montague , Uni- versity of California, Riverside . The author has two stated purposes: first, to introduce the student of computer sci- ence to the basic concepts of the retrieval of alphabetic information and to describe tech- niques for developing suitable computer programs for retrieval and, second, to de- scribe the general structure of data bases and computer programs so that librarians, information scientists, and others without a computer science background can under- stand and appreciate basic design considera- tions of information retrieval systems.

     summary: This example, the record of an Australian conference on library use instruction (termed BI for bibliographic instruction in this country and formal reader educa- tion in Australia) qualifies as a uniformly thoughtful and helpful contribution to the literature in this ever-expanding area. Academic librar- ies and large public libraries who could af- ford this set ($11,432 prepublication price) would have access -to many more titles cov- ering a greater geographic area and a much longer period of time.

     summary: Comparing the library to any of the classic mass media, they point to a reversal of the mass com- munication process, for, instead of having the source (librarian) communicating to a receiver (library user), the library user be- comes the communicator and the librarian becomes the receiver. He draws implications for a persuasive rhetoric and teaching methods from the parallel between library instruction and the teaching of composition.

     summary: According to its chairman, Professor Donald Stokes of Princeton, the latest study differs from its predecessors in considering the limitations as well as the potentialities of social research for governmental purposes; in encompassing all aspects of knowledge production and application (including, for example, collection of social statistics) in addition to research and development as conventionally defined; and in including nonfederal users and uses in calculating the benefits of federal knowledge-promoting ac- tivities. Among the study group's recommen- dations are that federal research sponsorship be more -systematically planned, as well as increased; that research users outside gov- ernment be involved in planning; that dis- semination activities include periodic syntheses of the knowledge gained from re- search (a propos.al that recalls the Weinberg Report of 1963); and that the role of knowl- edge brokers-officials whose job is to iden- tify and elucidate for government and the scientific community their opportunities for mutual betterment-be enlarged.

     summary: A cost accounting system specifically lim- ited to library labor costs in time and dpllars developed, implemented, and continuing in the libraries of California State University, Northridge, is carefully described in Cost Analysis of Library Functions in an at- tempt to provide a . model for libraries to Recent Publications I 369 produce their own set of labor cost data from which sound management decisions can be made and, eventually, from which relevant and meaningful staffing farmulas can be developed (p .2). A concise and cogent discussi9n of the methods used includes, in addition to defi- nition and description, consideration of some of the problems and pitfalls met, such as staff resistance, the discovery that actual library jobs are performed at variance with stated procedures , and the frustration at- tendant on the definition of activities , tasks, and functions to produce valid results-so much so that the authors conclude that in- stalling major data systems is a slow painful process that requires unending revision and rethinking (p.43).

     summary: Written clearly with a minimum of jargon and based on meaningful research, Getting Books to Children is recommended not only to all active in- children's librar- ianship but also to other librarians, espe- cially those concerned with book selection. In Getting Books to Children , Joseph Turow, assistant profes- sor of communication at Purdue University, applies the perspective of mass communica- tions research to children's publishing in a way that bears upon fundamental concerns of librarians, the consideration of quality in books selected for a library collection, and the desire to satisfy the needs and wishes of readers.

As a professional long dedicated to serv- ing the needs of handicapped individuals and helping others to recognize the impor- tance of library service to the handicapped, Kieth Wright has been an eloquent spokes- man for the rights and requirements of that largely overlooked minority in our society.

     summary: Three modes of information transfer are considered in historical order: discipline-based, mission-based, and problem-based. Questionable to many in a democratic so- ciety will be the marketplace philosophy applied to information access, leading, as it will, to the rich getting richer and the poor poorer.

     summary: The great advantage of such a detailed survey approach to library computer sys- tems is that the librarian or library manager can acquire the background needed to begin shopping. Stressing the point that the second edition, like the first, is based upon a set of condi- tions rather than cases, but also that media in libraries have proliferated since 1967, Hunter demonstrates the application of the principles of description to an art re- production, a sound recording, a chair, a film, etc.

     summary: Garfield carefully shows the advantages of the citation index over conventional subject indexes for indexing and for bibliographic searching; these include the lack of need for intellectual analysis in citation indexing, the objectivity of citation indexing, the increase in potential productivity and efficiency in searching, the avoidance of semantic prob- lems and the need for vocabulary standardi- zation in citation indexes, the lack of need-at least at the indexing stage-to worry about the variety of human languages in which papers are published, the precision of the citation index over time, and the abil- ity of the citation index to identify relevant papers across disciplines. These are mighty advantages, leading this reader to become aware of'his underuse of citation indexes for his personal literature searching needs.

However, although the study is limited to nontraditional programs of continuing education, the procedures and methodology used in collecting data for the project provide information relevant to questions and issues that may also arise re- garding recognition for more traditional types of continuing education programs.

     summary: The objective of the system was to increase efficiency by means of three major components: (1) the use of OCLC as the principal locator source with telefacsimile machines to relay requests directly from borrow- ing to lending library; (2) the use of a central re- source library (Cleveland Public) to screen all re- quests for which OCLC did not provide a poten- tial lending library; and (3) the use of referral cir- cuit utilizing telefacsimile to route the remaining unfilled requests among member libraries. To state the obvious, thi~ work belongs in map libraries and in the libraries of schools of librarianship.

In general, this volume should probably be recommended as supplemental reading material for students of world library history and Chinese studies.

     summary: IMPLEMENTING THE MARKETING PROGRAM Once the marketing concept has been established among the staff of the organiza- tion-and that is not an easy task to accom- plish-the next step is to analyze the cur- rent situation, assess the strengths and shortcomings in the library's current pro- grams and policies, determine the goals that a program of marketing library services should accomplish, and determine the spe- cific methods by which those goals can be achieved. These aren't the only reasons for engag- ing in the marketing of library services but are among the most important and should be sufficient reason for librarians to consider the possibilities offered by the marketing of library services.

     summary: In the first edition, the directory of slide libraries listed 240 collections in the United States, Can- ada, and several miscellaneous foreign coun- tries.

     summary: The readings for Issue II, government re- lations, examine past trends toward various levels of government funding for various types of libraries, together with a strong plea for an integrated national library plan. The final Issue VII, changing boundaries of librarianship, ranges from Vannevar Bush's rather technical World War II pre- dictions of the future course of information retrieval to Karl Nyren's mid-1970s iden- tification of libraries as low energy proces- ses to which society will never devote more than a minor fraction of its resources.

     summary: We may have good ideas as concerns the big picture, but flounder a bit when it comes down to the little nitty-gritty details; and that is where a great many of the author's suggestions are directed. This small volume presents a number of complex issues as they relate to human rela- tions in library environments, including in- trapersonal and interpersonal communica- tion, working relationships, transactional analysis, role expectations and strain, group norms and dynamics, sources of power, assertive and aggressive behavior, and be- havioral integrity.

The author, who has a library science background, has taught book production for nineteen years and has written extensively, including Reprography for Librarians (Bingley, 1975) and Education for Librar- ianship (Bingley, 1978), is, to say the least, well qualified for his task.

     summary: Yet, this volume does not even summa- rize in any coherent fashion the current issues related to library effectiveness. All in all, although individual authors make some good points concerning aspects of library effectiveness (particularly Webster and Bonus), the overall treatment of effec- tiveness is rudimentary.

For example, there are two widely sepa- rated chapters that discuss the needs of us- ers of information retrieval systems.

     summary: From recent ads it appears that the PND will be supplemented in usual Gale fashion by New Pseudonyms and Nicknames, thus increasing its usefulness especially for cur- rent figures. The Pseudonyms and Nicknames Dictio- nary (PND) will not replace any works a li- brary already has on pseudonyms and nick- names but it will supplement them.

     summary: Among the impressions that will be left with a careful reader of this essay is that the problem is, in fact, an apparently infinite complex of many discrete problems-of physical chemistry, of lighting design, of environmental pollution and con- trol, of engineering, and so forth. Given our success as a profession in shaping the technology of comput- ing (hardware and software) to resolve problems of bibliographic control, one wonders if we can assemble a different but equally diverse array of resources and skills to address conservation, for it will surely require as sustained an effort to preserve the twentieth century's bibliography for the twenty-first.

     summary: Levine's model is ambitious and extraor- dinary: ambitious because it attempts to ex- plain both the failure and the success of accepted innovation, and extraordinary be- cause it seeks to account not for the initial implementation of innovation but for its ultimate fate, a fate that must occupy some point on a continuum ranging from complete institutionalization to final ter- mination. The boundaries of institutional personality could be expanded to embrace the idiosyn- cratic personalities of the experimental col- leges and to allow those personalities to pervade the parent institution; the bound- aries could be expanded just enough to ex- tend hospitality to the colleges as enclaves of the larger structure; they could be mod- estly contracted so as to coerce the colleges to conform to those academic traditions that were transcended at the trial creation of the colleges; or the boundaries could be severely contracted to induce such radical incongruence between the institutional per- sonality founded on hard-core academic val- ues and the more daring personality of the collegiate system as to result in the exter- mination of innovation.

     summary: Often too much emphasis has been placed by the library science curriculum and by practicing reference librarians on the nature and refer- ence qualities of specific reference titles, and too little emphasis on understanding how these qualities come into play in the process of reference work. Unlike the heavily ~ubject-oriented approach followed by authors like Lunin and Morton, this volume is divided into two general sections-bibliographic sources and information sources.

     summary: This collection of papers, presented at the Twenty-Third Midwest Academic Librar- ians' Conference (Ball State University, May 1978), attempts to analyze the symbiotic re- lationship between the faculty development and library instruction movements. But, as Ray Suput writes in the foreword, the specific focuses of faculty development and library instruction are mismatched-the former is faculty-oriented and the latter is student-oriented.

     summary: The present volume, despite its nearly identical title, is very different in intent and arrange- ment and should be welcomed by everyone in the field of academic library instruction, whether veteran or novice. Renford and Hendrickson have organized their work according to the principal modes of BI with chapters on planning, orienta- tion, the printed word, course-related in- struction, library skills workbooks, credit courses, computer-assisted instruction, and AV materials and equipment generally.

The survey sample, selected on a random basis from actual catalog users, included a representative group of undergraduates, graduates, faculty, library staff, others, and a cross section of the various disciplines within the ·humanities, social sciences, and sciences.

     summary: In part this is because library education is simply not demanding enough, not tough enough (whatever its length), and in part because we are having to hire those who are not librarians (and pay them more, I might note) to get the work done that is now necessary in academic libraries. It was but a tentative first step, and as the Council on Li- brary Resources, and the Association of Re- search Libraries become increasingly con- cerned about library education, as they are, we may at last develop the kind of symbiotic relationship we need between academic li- braries and the library schools that, to date, has at best' existed only in form, not sub- stance.

His study likewise shows that the number of students who entered schools of library science with Ph.D.s in hand ap- proximately doubled between 1972 and 1974, and that there is a preference in the current job market for librarians with subject expertise at the Ph.D. level.

     summary: Here the most comprehensive current bibliography in American history, America: History and Life (AHL), is relegated to the end of the list of tools considered, a weakness made more noticeable by the absence of the AH L Index to Book Reviews from the discus- sion of book review indexes and the omission of the AHL American History Bibliography from the earlier section on history indexes. The list of basic reference sources inexplica- bly begins, following its initial outline, with- out even a heading or generous space divi- sion, in the last two inches of the inside column of a verso page.

     summary: Among the fifteen essays, three might be regarded as history but the majority can only be regarded as perceptive observations of the growth of academic libraries in the United States and Great Britain from the twenties to the present, with great emphasis upon the emer- gence of the academic library as a large com- plex organization of relatively recent origin. Two other essays warrant careful reading by the American academic librarian: Geof- frey Briggs on university library development in Canada and a superb essay by Harrison Bryan on university library development in Australia and New Zealand with accompa- nying statistical tables, (p.306-14).

     summary: Nonetheless, as the editor notes, the best evi- dence that university libraries will maintain the advances made in the last few decades may well be the record of their achieve- ments in the face of past adversity. One gathers that prior to World War II, U.K. university libraries were well-selected, carefully targeted research col- lections primarily for use by faculty scholars.

     summary: Since so many schools have introduced or reintro- duced the internship into their programs and increasing numbers of educators and librar- ians are involved, the material presented should be of interest to a larger audience than library school faculty.

     summary: There is also general agreement, both by middle managers and top adminis- trators, that library schools are doing a poor job in teaching management and administra- tion. In summarizing the information on middle managers in academic libraries, Bailey re- ports that there is little consensus on the var- ious levels of middle management.

     summary: As library budgets decline in real dollars and as· both faculty interests and the range of potentially useful material continue to broaden, the art of collection development has come into its own. The essays group into five categories: (1) collection management, which includes or- ganization, personnel, budgetary allocation, and other matters; (2) the selection processes themselves, including blanket orders, Latin American and European acquisitions, out- of-print buying, and preservation; (3) the use of quantitative methods such as citation and circulation analysis to guide development; (4) special problems arising from format (mi- croforms, media) or sources (government documents); and (5) new directions, which includes such diverse subjects as education for collection development (Charles B. Os- burn) and creativity, collection manage- ment, and development.

     summary: FINDINGS To determine the effectiveness of the inter- active feature on improving immediate recall of library information, we ran three t-tests on student scores: one (A in table 1) on the scores for all questions; one (Bin table 1) on scores for questions about just those points covered by the interactive feature; one (C in table 1) on scores for questions about points not in- cluded in the interactive feature. Our findings from a year-long study demonstrate conclusively that this kind of in- teractive feature does improve immediate re- call of library information.

     summary: A second document that must be consid- ered required reading for those involved with or interested in the question of utility linkage is C. Lee Jones's discussion of the Battelle re- port. The first deals with the ef- fects of linking on libraries and their users, and examines issues such as whether there is sufficient reason to link bibliographic utilities and, if so, the possible benefits in three areas of service: shared cataloging, interlibrary loan, and reference searching.

     summary: A few idiosyncrasies are bothersome: internal prepositions are disregarded in alphabetizing multi-word entries, and acronyms are inter- filed with other entries (e.g., CB after Ca- zenovia, N.Y.). Given the particularly good coverage of contemporary authors, however, the absence of entries for Kenneth Koch, Charles Bukowski, Robert Coover, and Stephen King is surprising.

Private colleges will suffer, and the~r ltbrartes wlll suffer particularly.

     summary: However, some colleges and universi- ties have persons on their staffs designated as professional librarians by virtue of having earned a bachelor's degree in library science, or because they have gained many years of library and/or other experience that uniquely qualifies them for professional positions. In the second stage the directors of the ran- domly selected libraries were sent a brief questionnaire designed to determine the number of professional librarians on their staffs.

     summary: From that premise, the author expands on the development of the debate of theory versus practice in library education, and then goes on to describe alternative teaching-learning processes that could be used to help resolve the continuing dilemma. This volume brings together most if not all of the arguments pertaining to the discussion of theory versus practice in library education, and in that sense serves a useful function.

Principal credit for the dogged persistence and occasional resort to subter- fuge and artful stratagem-without which the enterprise could never have succeeded- goes to Sir Edward Bond, principal librarian (i.e., director) of the British Museum, and Richard Garnett, keeper of printed books and general editor of the catalog.

     summary: On the basis of the data and the statistical analysis in this study, one should conclude that there is Research Notes I 345 no significant correlation between the num- ber of card catalog access points per title and its recorded use in an academic library for a specified period of time. The distribution of catalog access points for the 100 sample titles studied ap- pears as follows: No. of author (corporate or personal) main entries: 90 No. of title main entries: 10 No. of subject-added entries: 159 No. of added entries for editors, compilers, etc.: 12 No. of joint author-added entries: 34 No. of series-added entries: 10 No. of title-added entries: 90 In the above distribution, it is interesting to note that the average number of subject- added entries per title is 1.59, which is slightly higher than the national average of 1.3 subject-added entries per title as estab- lished by McClure in 1973.

     summary: In table 4 the general trend in the narrowing of spread of instructional faculty salaries is reflected in a narrowing of librarian salaries. Not necessarily to be ex- pected, though, is that by comparison of ta- ble 4 and table 3 it can be seen that narrower spreads of instructional faculty salaries are directly related to library salaries being in lower groups.

     summary: It may be clear to some that these realities cry out for innovative, if not revolutionary, approaches to the organization of academic libraries. Martin, in quoting Brunelle, points out that academic libraries seem better prepared to provide stability than to initiate change.

     summary: In the epilogue, the author states: The goal of personnel management is to match personnel resources with programs. Collective bargaining, con- tract negotiation, and grievance resolution, which have become key factors in the admin- istration of library personnel, are ably cov- ered in this volume.

     summary: One wonders whether, governed by the market, library services and collections may then come to reflect the plastic shopping mall quality we find in those segments of our lives already controlled by market mech- anisms. James Dodd's piece on information brokers highlights the paradoxical nature of the rela- tionship 'between information brokers and public libraries.

     summary: The eight professions are examined for current racial composition, the peculiar problems that entry into each presents for minority-group members, and whatever reasons might account for the ups and downs of black enrollments during the decade. In a separate chapter on the production of black doctorates during the 1970s, he dem- onstrates that a situation similar to that of the professions existed in every field and in every state.

     summary: The authors and I agree that statistical techniques often have an important role to play in evaluation, including the evaluation of bibliographic instruction . Thus even if one agrees with the authors that the three years between 1977 and 1980 con- stitute a reasonable definition of long-term retention, apparently only a minority of the 230 analyzed responses were individuals who had instruction only as freshmen, and there- fore are the only respondents who can be le- gitimately analyzed for long-term retention.

     summary: Not only do English teachers re- quire more research papers than most teach- ers in other departments, but the responsibil- ity for research paper instruction, per se, has most often devolved upon the English de- partment. The results of a recently completed national sur- vey on research paper instruction in the un- dergraduate writing curriculum, conducted by this author and Dennis R. Perry in the winter of 1981 , suggest that library use in- struction efforts should be primarily com- mitted to the English department writing program in most institutions.

The author, who describes herself as nei- ther advocate nor detractor of zero-base budgeting (ZBB), has addressed her work to library managers who seek information about this recently heralded theory/process, to decide whether ZBB can be a meaningful and suitable process for them in planning, budgeting, evaluation, and control.

     summary: Slote devotes scant attention to the diffi- culties of weeding a large academic collec- tion (one page) or special libraries (one-half page) although, in the literature discussed, he does include a review of work done in uni- versity collections that support shelf-time pe- riod as the best predictor of future use. He does not address the fact that special libraries, which are character- ized by in-depth collections in a narrow sub- ject field or format, can often find little to weed, and that what is weeded must most of- ten be discarded, rather than stored.

     summary: This comparison of the results of two surveys of library instruction programs in California ac- ademic libraries, conducted in 1974 and in 1980 by the California Clearinghouse on Library In- struction, includes discussions of the number of survey returns by library type; teaching methods used for library instruction; materials used to teach course-related instruction, formal credit courses, self-paced cre(iit instruction, and noncredit instruction; libraries by type in 1980 reporting instructional activities such as self-guided tours and library handbooks; and use of audiovisual media by library type. The planning of library stack areas for books is a topic that has been studied with increasingly serious attention, but never before has there been published a techni- cal report devoted to the planning of new or expanded music library stacks.

     summary: Each of the institute libraries was sent multiple copies of the questionnaire, and library personnel at the reference desk were requested to fill out one copy each time a research scientist made a demand for a publication during a period of six months. Professional librarians in Nigerian research libraries could make positive efforts to achieve this aim by deploying professional staff in ref- erence services.

     summary: Although Caldwell and Livingston 4 state that 'citation indexes provide a way to determine how highly valued and widely read the research pro- duced by your faculty is,' we caution that the process is not as simple as running an online search, as these authors imply. The searcher should inform the patron that a library staff member, knowledge- able in the use of citation indexes, is avail- able to discuss the search results and inter- pret the results and other techniques which should be considered in order to obtain as complete information as possible on citations to the work of the individual being evaluated.

     summary: Thirty-three percent of those involved with reference believed that library school had been most important in preparing them for their ref- erence responsibilities. A small percentage of the librarians indicated that library school had prepared them for evaluating and su- pervising personnel, original cataloging of special formats, copy cataloging, explain- ing policies and procedures, and acting as liaison with faculty.

     summary: Fortunately, how- ever, one of the easily apprehensible fea- tures included in both the reviews and the slips is the name of the publisher, and once a bibliographer recognizes that cer- tain publishers produce more OAB titles than others, monitoring the reviews or slips becomes a much easier task. Certainly the OAB titles, as well as the much larger number of total titles from any given pub- lisher, fluctuates from one year to the next so that some publishers of quality may not be represented (especially when, like Addison-Wesley, they neglect to report total titles in Literary Market Place).

     summary: This book should be read not only by those interested in re- search on information needs and informa- tion seeking, but also by all those seriously interested in the future role of libraries as information providers.-Peter ]. While these data suggest that further re- search into work-related information seeking might yield important data for li- brary planning, the authors also discuss seven action areas which might improve the market share of libraries among com- peting information providers: informa- tion services to special populations, ex- panding services, technology, marketing, public relations, alternate funding sources, and future studies.

     summary: To us of a not-so-tender age (I was born one month before the U.S. entered the war in 1917, and I served under Mr. Wheeler at EPFL before World War II), this record will be fascinating for its reve- lation of half a lifetime (ALA's and mine) of concern with librarianship. An- other volume may be needed to answer these two questions; the author provides his answers: new horizons of profes- sionalism and service were the enduring legacies of the American Library Associa- tion's participation in World War I (p.99).'

     summary: The hypothesis used by the author is: Librarians handle their identity, as be- stowed on them by the stereotype, in the manner of a minority group; their re- sponse is similar to that made by members of minority groups in response to minority status. The methodology used was adapted from a study of minority groups and con- sisted of a quantitative content analysis of journal articles, chapters in books, and news reports written about the stereotype of librarians by members of the library profession during the period 1921-April 1978.

     summary: That 50.6 percent found the computer catalog easier for journal searches, while only 7.1 per- cent preferred the card .catalog, may be due to an aversion to searching through the large number of cards frequently en- countered in card catalogs for the works of corporate authors or for periodicals with common titles. The preference for title searching over author searching is consistent with Norden and Lawrence's findings, even though they report that us- ers of card catalogs prefer the author ap- proach.

     summary: Busha's introduction paints a broad pic- ture of intellectual freedom issues (most of it said before) and successfully encapsu- lates the essence of the articles that follow. With intellectual freedom and access to information ranking as two of ALA's top priorities for the 1980s, a careful re- view of Defending Intellectual Freedom and Censorship in the Eighties seems most appropriate.

Union catalogs and union lists have no- ble traditions in library services, but as the introduction to one of these volumes states, they are no longer a simple merger of card catalog-oriented records. The participants in the Inter- national Symposium on the Future of the Union Catalogue, University of Toronto, May 21-22, 1981, were able to look at the past and present of union catalogs, assess the problems imposed by advancing tech- nology and conflicting standards, and present some interesting directions, in some cases, alternatives, for union catalog development.

Indeed, every librarian will find much of interest in these pages; any academic li- brarian who feels overwhelmed, under- staffed, and undervalued should read the account of staffing and hours during the early days at Leipzig University Library, or the noxious results of juxtaposing the university library and the medical school operating theater at the University of Halle.

     summary: Based upon the questions given in the foreword as examples of the types of que- ries that Fiction is capable of answering, Bowker apparently expects this book to be a kind of one-stop authority for reference questions dealing with the U.S. publica- tion of fiction editions . Many editions published in the fifties, sixties, and seventies by major firms such as Knopf, Pantheon, Harper, Viking, and Little, Brown, and which have appeared in Books in Print, are not to be found in Fiction.

     summary: However, while the unique needs of users of special collections are better served, the special collections repository, as a result of its independence, has been isolated from the mainstream of library development.

     summary: Moreover, the proliferation of types of materials found in special collections, the growing awareness of the concept of intrinsic value, and the importance of involving special collections staff in cooper- ative collection development programs point to the importance of identifying integrated man- agement structures for special collections departments. Another factor that can lead to integra- tion of special collections units is that there has been a proliferation of materials in special collections beyond those of rare books, pamphlets, newspapers, and man- uscripts.

     summary: -of this brave and thoughtful book, Stephen Bulick summarizes the questions he has asked and the conclu- sions he has drawn: 'The two themes mainly in the author's mind during the course of this work were the sociology of knowledge and the development and maintenance of library collections. The second section of the book, which is almost exactly half of the total work, deals with library applications of automation, with separate chapters on computerized circulation control systems, automated cataloging, automated reference service, and automated acquisitions and serials control.

     summary: From the preface, where that statement appears, and contin- uing throughout the work, the reader is constantly reminded of the difficulties fac- ing women in our (numerically) female- dominated profession. We too often think of the latter as received from above, but Bulick reminds us that in its developmental stages, LC was an emerging commentary on and at- tempt to organize emerging disciplines.

     summary: John Richardson looks at the nature of research in government publications by analyzing theses and dissertations com- pleted since 1928. In my opinion, this book does nothing to bring about an effective and compre- hensive system of bibliographic control for government publications, but it is ef- fective in setting out the dimensions of the problem and in describing the approaches some librarians have taken to cope with them.

     summary: The author clearly states that this book is intended for use in introductory first courses on book selection in library schools, and as such it is useful. The first one hundred thirty pages give an overview of the principles and basic means and aspects of selection in a concise manner which serves well as an introduc- tion to: the role and nature of selection in different types of libraries; the fundamen- tal principles of selection; the role of use studies and citation analysis; the structure of the publishing industry; how to judge a 522 College & ·Research Libraries book for content and physical quality; the use of guides to recommended books; and book reviews.

     summary: More than any other factor, this promises the survival of book libraries and shelf-classified collections.' The workshop was structured so that there were 'three separate but inter- related seminars, to cover broadly the themes of national library and information service development, the influence of so- cial and technological change on library and information services (LIS), and edu- cation in libraries.

     summary: And I am shocked to think that there can be professional librarians who measure costs in relative terms of dollars per page against the substantive content of any worthy publication. Thus it was important for us to find out about the subgroup of academic librarians who had al- ready received tenure at large university libraries.

     summary: Local surveys and library self-studies of users often conclude that reference librarians have been admirably successful in meeting campus needs. I have come to the conclusion that, as professionals, we have abdicated a basic responsibility to establish the systematic conditions upon which to evaluate our own performance as reference librarians.

     summary: Most librarians believe that journal use is an extremely important factor in the re- tention decision but realize that use stud- ies are difficult to design and fairly expen- sive to conduct. In a study of chemical journals, Rice also found a high correlation between library use and JCR rank.

     summary: It would be inter- esting to study the stability of rank lists of periodicals in order of use in a few aca- demic or special libraries; my guess is that stability would be little if any better than at the British Library Lending Division, since the clientele changes, and subject inter- ests and emphases of existing users change (my personal rank list of periodi- cals in order of use changes from year to year). While citation rank lists may not correlate badly with local use of all periodicals held, the correlation grows weaker as one goes further down the lists.

     summary: While the approach can only serve as a rough guide, convenience of use and low cost make citation analysis an appropriate technique with which to search for periodical titles to cancel.

     summary: The most significant chapters may well be the concluding three, which deal with the philosophy behind support for special programs for women, the responsibilities of senior women administrators to other women, and an analysis of emerging is- s?es and reco~ended strategies. While the efforts have been substantial, and have certainly resulted in individual advancement for many women, it is less clear, as the editors point out, that commitment to advance- ment of women and minorities has been ins~tutionalized by American higher edu- cation.

     summary: While it is noble to give 'conscientious and congenial consider- ation of articles and research papers which either by their length or their nature would find other publication sources un- receptive' (B. Kreissman's introduction), it makes it difficult for the reviewer to rec- ommend this volume to any but those whose collections of library literature are truly comprehensive. It should be of special interest to any librar- ian or system designer considering the place of classification in the future of li- braries and library catalogs, both as secu- rity considerations inspire flirtation with closed stacks, and as computer capabili- ties allow reconsideration of the possibili- ties for providing library users with en- hanced access to information via subject.-Janet Swan Hill, Northwestern University, Evanston, Illinois.

     summary: Spe- cific reasons that contributed to colleges and universities sustaining the viability of residence hall libraries included adequate funding for the purchase of current mate- rials, adequate staff, and the security of materials in the libraries. Although residence hall libraries have existed for more than fifty-five years, little has been published about them.

     summary: In be- tween are essays on library instruction to develop critical thinking skills and the teaching of search strategy, an interesting essay on Alternatives to the Term Pa- March 1985 per,' a survey of bibliographic instruction programs, and a description of the LOEX program. Three other papers by Beverley Labbett, Elaine Martin, and Ralph Tab- berer report on three different projects de- signed to investigate information and its use among students; their conclusions- even allowing for differences in the British and American educational systems- merit serious scrutiny by anyone involved in designing library instruction programs for undergraduates.

     summary: Or again, the chapter on education sources begins with this useful advice: Librari- ans should be wary of investing large amounts in sources that will become quickly dated, and care should be taken to update sources regularly, especially direc- tories and catalogs. For example, chapter 12 includes a com- pletely revised list of sources relating to computer science.

     summary: Since the use of nonprofessionals at the Reference Desk seems to be acceptable to many library directors, we have shifted responsibility for that function completely to non- professionals. I would suggest that library administrators are their own worst enemies for allowing themselves to be bullied into agreeing to architectural and design concepts which they, of all people, should know will not work.

     summary: This process has unusual implica- tions for our current bureaucracies since knowledge work requires that we set aside time- honored professional constraints that provide narrow limits on what we will do for our users. According to Veaner, the broad and general removal of production/manufacturing work from academic librarians is the most important change and the most valuable opportunity now before the ACRL community.

     summary: If, as many Center members feel, the most ef- fective use of the Center can be made if it serves as repository for and collector of unique items, there should be little over- lap between the Center's holdings and those of other libraries. Interdisci- plinary Topics in Gerontology (93 libraries); Byzantine Studies (69 libraries); Applied Er- gonomics (91libraries); and Family Therapy (98 libraries) are but a few examples of CRL titles held by multiple institutions.

     summary: Eighty-one (58 percent) of all there- spondents reported tenure track status for most or aM of their librarian positions, yet only 38 of these institutions require evi- dence of research and publication before granting tenure to librarians. This scenario suggests that librarians with faculty status may find it difficult to earn promotion and tenure when their re- search and publication standards are simi- lar to those that their colleagues on the in- structional faculty must meet.

     summary: The most common approach is simply to summarize, serially, studies that seem to have some relationship to the new study being undertaken. Second, disagreements among studies, far from suggesting despair, ought to be considered opportunities for understand- ing; that different findings appear in stud- ies carried out in different places, for ex- ample, may suggest locales and their cultural components as promising vari- ables for further investigation.

     summary: I would ar- gue, as I suspect would Magrill and Hickey, quite the opposite: it is precisely because of this difficult process of institu- tional soul-searching and analysis that li- brarians have been forced to work still harder to establish meaningful priorities and to devise careful collection policies. Acquisi- tions work has become more complex since Ford's book appeared, and Hickey and Magrillleave no stone unturned in de- scribing and reviewing the ways in which this aspect of library work can be man- aged.

     summary: Likewise, there have been no good studies demonstrating that three or four hours of library instruction spread over four years of undergraduate education really suffice to impart library skills; that the average college graduate could pass a library skills test six months after graduating from college; that the average college graduate, no matter how heavily exposed to library skills in schoot will ever be more than an occasional or sporadic user of the library in later life; or that librarians, who I suppose do possess such skills, are any better educated, better informed, or more knowledgeable than millions of other middle-class people successfully plying their trades as diplomats, politicians, businessmen, accountants, college professors, nurses, engineers, or architects. She implies that the library's mission is to teach library skills because all educated people need such skills in our 'information society.

     summary: She notes, how- ever, that school libraries are tradition- ally the last type of library to be included in any multi-type cooperative (although there are some indications, as in New Jer- sey and New York, that this condition is changing). Sullivan makes special men- tion of the fact that two stereotypes still ex- ist and continue to delay the incorporation of school libraries into networks: the no- July 1985 tions that all 'school library collections are alike so they won't have much to offer, and school libraries are self-sufficient be- cause of the limited demands made upon them.

     summary: Tanner's descriptions of the various edi- tions of Water's writings are as scrupulous and meticulous as any connoisseur of de- scriptive bibliography could wish them to be and cover his subject thoroughly from two pieces of juvenilia that appeared in a Colorado grade school literary magazine through all the author's books, pam- phlets, periodical contributions (including the numerous pieces written for the award-winning Southwestern weekly newspaper El Crepusculo, which Waters edited for two years), to Waters' contribu- tions to books and articles written by oth- ers, and even book jacket blurbs for his own and others' books. They range widely from Phyllis Parkins' history of the professional climate in the 1950s to Dale Baker's contrast of information systems in the USSR and the USA, to Frederick Kil- gour's comparison of cooperation in li- brary book cataloging and the abstracting and indexing industry, to Donald King's diagnosis of the crisis in the information community.

     summary: There must be-in studies like this and in tenure and promotion decisions-a better distinction made between truly general journals (e.g., Library Quarterly, Library Trends, Library Journal), which deans and directors can judge as well as anyone else, and those journals specialized by librarian function (e.g., RQ, Reference Seroices Review, and Reference Librarian) or subject area (e.g., Notes, BMLA, Sci- ence and Technology Libraries) best judged by instructors and practitioners in those special- ties. However, its treatment of specialty journals (e.g., excluding Notes and BMLA but including Law Library Journal and School Library Media Quarterly) is confusing.

     summary: So far the majority of African literary works studied outside Af- rica have fallen into categories of Anglophone, Francophone, and lu- sophone African literatures, but the pro- duction of works in African literatures is becoming increasingly hard to ignore . It is also somehow a harbinger of future develop- ments in African literatures that can be culled out of the strong feelings expressed by the few African participants in favor of an Afro-centric, historical and social use of African literary works on their own terms, as opposed to the aesthetic and abstractly universal epistemological approach to which these works have been subjected by non-African idealist critics.

     summary: There is no reason why libraries can't be vitally important in this role, and as the librarian's training is upgraded to doctoral status, librarians should become avid competitors for scholars-in-residence positions at other libraries. I've not stressed relations with other libraries, but they are important.

     summary: That many university administrators think of academic libraries as 'bottomless pits (academic computer centers, for which even simple funding formulas do not exist, are often considered voracious first cousins to libraries) arises from an awareness that they are more complex than the traditional measures would im- ply, but without a better understanding of the forces that are changing academic li- braries these same administrators are without the tools needed to justify a differ- ent approach to the funding issue. As academic libraries approach this next major technological change, they may find a natural and knowledgeable partner in the academic computer center (the other bottomless pit for many uni- versity administrators).

What existed, in the late 1960s, as a female profession ad- ministratively dominated by men, by 1984 had become a profession whose majority of women were substantially represented in the administrative ranks.

     summary: Joan M. Bechtel Criticized for their isolation from the central mission of the college or university and, at the same time, struggling to accommodate the tremendous growth of information and technology, academic librarians need a new paradigm for library service that will effectively direct and in- form planning for the future. As a paradigm for library service it pro- vides no clues to the services needed in the university, nor does it help to clarify the role of librarians in the educational process.

Since instructional formulas are driven by enrollment, library funding is vulnerable to enrollment declines in both methods.

     summary: In fact, network designation as resource con- sultants, as approved revisers (e.g., Proj- ect Enhance), as buddies for new or wayward cataloging departments, pro- vides new cataloging peer groups with na- tionwide influence, power, and prestige. Network affiliated libraries and network quality control personnel thus become participants in evaluating each cataloger's work.

     summary: The intrinsic differences between the two types of plans are discussed, and the publishing industries of North America and Eu- rope are reviewed for their impact on approval plans covering various countries. It is common for academic libraries which accept the notion of approval plans to have at least two different types of plan: a subject-based plan and a university press plan.

     summary: Further, the limited ways in which online searches have been evaluated have hindered a full under- standing of the organic nature of the on- line process. While his prediction is undeniably correct, the idea that online searches integral to the research process must operate accord- ing to a logic-in-use seems related less to who performs a search than to how well a search is performed.

     summary: DISCUSSION Pagell and Lusk suggested in the 1984 study that faculty sponsorship seemed likely to increase the response rate for M.B.A.'s.u Results of the present survey indicate that sponsorship alone does not determine response rate, suggesting there is an interactive effect between sponsor- ship of a survey and use of the services of the sponsoring organization. Doob and Peterson both found that university sponsorship increased response rate over business firm sponsorship by 10 and 13 percent, respectively .

     summary: Professional peer review is customary among fac- ulty, and many faculty librarians also use this evaluation technique, even though a supervi- sory review might be more expedient. The premise upon which the authors based their claim that librarians do not deserve faculty status is erroneous because it fails to see library faculty as any different from other faculty, teaching or nonteaching.

     summary: Moreover, if one considers that the es- sence of service to library clientele is not merely the hours of operation or the avail- ability of a book on the shelf, but also the degree of professional service a user re- ceives, then costing of library services be- comes even more difficult to quantify. Stephen A. Roberts notes that the prac- tice of costing library and information op- erations is a weak area in the repertoire of library management.

     summary: In the history of art libraries, vertical files and various forms of periodical index- ing arose to fill the same need: access to published information outside of books. The one written in 1908 by Jane Wright, then librarian of the Cincin- nati Art Museum, describes why art librar- ianship was different from other branches at a time when art libraries were growing rapidly and developing, or finding the need for, some of the bibliographical ap- paratus we now take as standard: indexes of periodical articles and reproductions, such as the Periodical Index of the Ryerson Library of the Art Institute of Chicago or the H. W. Wilson Company's Art Index; in- dividualized thesauri for local collections, such as the A very collection at Columbia University; and picture and vertical files whose value has been proven by the sub- sequent generations of researchers.

     summary: The one written in 1908 by Jane Wright, then librarian of the Cincin- nati Art Museum, describes why art librar- ianship was different from other branches at a time when art libraries were growing rapidly and developing, or finding the need for, some of the bibliographical ap- paratus we now take as standard: indexes of periodical articles and reproductions, such as the Periodical Index of the Ryerson Library of the Art Institute of Chicago or the H. W. Wilson Company's Art Index; in- dividualized thesauri for local collections, such as the A very collection at Columbia University; and picture and vertical files whose value has been proven by the sub- sequent generations of researchers. The final section reviews the movement toward national and international cooper- ation among art librarians.

     summary: Yet the majority of this work is given to book pub- lishing with all of its problems and pitfalls and how, with knowledge and fore- thought, you might avoid them. There is some discussion of motiva- tion; of what a progression in a libra- rian/writer's career might be, idealized to some extent by Kathleen Heim; and of manuscript preparation, with useful sources both discussed in the text and ref- erenced at the end of several chapters, as well as an annotated bibliography on where to go for more information on pub- lishing a journal article or book.

Many librarians have administrative responsibilities, and with the general trend toward automa- tion, management is likely to become in- creasingly more important.

Eisenstein's Print- ing Press as an Agent of Change (Cambridge, 1979). Within this broad context, the Glaswe- gian linguist and lexicographer looks most specifically at the history of the study of language and at what he regards as there- lated creation of reference books, mainly lexicographic but also encyclopedic.

     summary: (3) Ford suggests some decentralization of reference service within refer- ence areas: assuming that this is desirable and on thew hole feasible, may not there still be a need for inquiry points or switching centers, e.g., places to go to ask for particular places of software, to pick up handouts, and to make appointments to see reference librarians? She is also right in observing that conventional reference desks are unsuitable for extended consultation; and while I don't mind reference librarians being desk-linked I certainly do not want them desk-bound.

     summary: The changing orientation of academic li­ braries has also worked against the contin­ uing development of special collections. In order to develop a rationale for the continuing support of special collections within the context of limited resources available to academic libraries today, we must look at the elements required to en­ sure their operation and use, as well as the preservation of materials.

     summary: If the percentage of the uni- versity budget dedicated to library costs increased fast enough to maintain a con- stant level of library acquisitions, the li- brary budget would consume 5.2 percent of the total university budget after ten years; 9 percent after twenty years, and 27 percent after forty years. 3 Once the less-used titles in a journal collection have been identified, the stage is set for area libraries to join together to maximize resources available to researchers.

     summary: Although the Oxford English Dictionary shows the word created appearing as early as 1393, creative in the sense of imaginative does not show up until 1745, creativeness in 1820, and creativity in 1875. Creativity in arenas other than the arts appears to be an even more contemporary notion.

     summary: Much of Douglas' analysis is devoted to refuting various theoretical efforts to bal- ance the books of social exchange in an at- tempt to redeem informed self-interest as the exclusive motor of social action. Her eclecticism in finding the strands of her argument in Mancur Olson's classic Logic of Collective Action (which brilliantly draws the limits of col- lective action), in examples drawn from social psychology and from the history of science, and even in the nomenclature used by California vintners, makes this short book a stimulating, but also a diffi- cult, adventure in the history of modern thought.

ROTH Science & Engineering Libraries California Institute of Technology Emily Werrel and Laura Sullivan's review article ('Faculty Status for Librarians,' C&RL 48:95-103[Mar. 1987]) indicated, to me, that the current issue is not so much should aca- demic librarians have faculty status, but what does it mean when they do. I suggest that academic librarians should be able to claim some credit for these publications, at least to the extent that, through their bibliographic acumen, they participated signifi- cantly in the scholarly process.

The major portion of the book is a thorough, comprehensive anno- tated bibliography that should have broad appeal for both those in library schools and working librarians.

     summary: Any conclusions about timeliness of review journals in 1981 are almost certainly worthless to anyone using these journals in 1987. The question of descriptive versus analytical reviews is also extremely misleading as Rehman defines it.

     summary: the inference that the change in writ- ing material from papyrus to parchment led to the change from roll to codex form, and 2. the assumption that the physical shortcomings of the roll led to the over- throw of papyrus as the scribes' chosen material (see figure 1). Taken as a body, Christian biblical writ- ings before the year 400 are almost invari- ably in codex form.

     summary: 2 American educators have responded to the special needs of ESL students by pro- viding support through offices and pro- grams, international student advisers, and specialized language classes, particu- larly on campuses where more than 5 per- cent of the student body is foreign. Often ESL students are a little older and more mature than the average college freshmen to whom similar introductions would be made; they have chosen to travel to a dis- tant country in order to further their edu- cation and their self-development; they have, in doing so, made emotional and fi- nancial sacrifices; they have accepted re- sponsibility for themselves.

In addition to clear reporting lines, the mention of collection development duties in a librarian's job description and assign- ment of a percentage of a person's time or work load to collection development may be a good idea.

Quantitative methods have es- tablished an apparently permanent place in academic library research but will ap- parently not become the sole acceptable means of supporting arguments.

     summary: Although the reasons for considering the implementation of these services varies from library to library most of the institutions are motivated by one of the following factors: a desire to bring ad- ditional monies into the library by charg- ing for special services to nonuniversity clientele, an opportunity to raise the pro- file and improve the image of the library on the campus and in the community, and finally, a chance to provide information services to other nonuniversity users without negatively affecting service to pri- mary clientele. Other papers include a discussion of permissible activities under United States copyright law, a view on information bro- kerage from the private sector, and contri- butions on financial and policy issues re- lated to fee-based services.

     summary: That experi- ence led us in 1959 to adopt in ACRL' s first set of college library standards the figure of 50,000 as the minimum number of vol- umes that every college library should own. A paper reporting their deliberations was published in CRL in 1965, and for a quarter of a century that paper has played a semi- nal role in our thinking regarding quanti- tative standards for academic libraries.

A position on the national agenda for education with recog- nition of the potential role of libraries in all levels of education may provide leverage locally.

     summary: Concerning application of the law of diminishing marginal returns to the creation of cataloging copy, the relevant input is cataloging staff time; the output we should be concerned with is not mere cataloging copy, which is after all a means and not an end in itself, but rather with that end, that is, with useful and sought access points. The input we are considering, cataloging staff time, is measured along the horizontal axis, and the output, useful and sought access points, along the vertical.

     summary: All of these 'public' collections along with academic library collections form a stronger framework on which truly de- tailed, thorough scholarship necessarily depends. The sheer size of the book world must be seriously reckoned with-it is arbitrary to consider simply col- lege and university libraries without tak- ing into account independent research li- braries such as the Newberry or the Huntington, museum library collections, natural history, technology, art, or early American historical society collections, great and humble.

     summary: Dennis Carrigan, summarizing the po- litical economy' of academic librarians in an article published here in July 1988, reminded us that the administrators who control the institutional resources upon which the library depends are traditionally not major consumers of library services and can't be counted on to understand those services or to assess competently their quality or their importance. The writer goes on to describe in detail the organization of technical services and ob- serves that since most of the work of processing goes on behind the scenes, it attracts little notice from the majority of library users who concentrate their attention 'on the per- son at the desk.

Concerned about the infre­ quent references to libraries in many of the recent reports on educational reform, Breivik, director of the Auraria Library of the University of Colorado at Denver, and Gee, president of the University of Colo­ rado, suggest a wide range of possible roles for the library and librarians on cam­ pus .

     summary: Becher distinguishes at the outset be- tween academic disciplines and the fac- ulty engaged in their pursuit; he then sets out to show how the activities, per- ceptions, and relationships of faculty in different disciplines are directly affected by a variety of qualities particular to those disciplines. The chapter on communication, which contains a well-reasoned and highly informative discussion of such topics as collaboration, competition, and the speed and length of publications in different disciplines and specialities, will no doubt be the section of the book of most interest to academic librarians.

     summary: If an agenda is at work here, then it is decidedly democratic, antitechnocratic (not antitechnical), antimilitaristic, and highly skeptical of highfalutin claims, particularly when these are offered as social solutions or make extravagant de- .mands on the public purse. The subtitle describes precisely the au- thorial strategy: to bring together in one place a list of facts, anecdotes, study re- sults, and surveys that pertain to a gen- eral theme, such as computer crimes, and to let these then define the landscape for discussion.

Harris' applica- tion of recent studies of contemporary and early-modern societies to the prob- lems of ancient literacy is interesting.

     summary: College and Research Libraries Equity and Entitlement: Internal Barriers to Improving the Pay of Academic Librarians Janice J. Kirkland Academic librarians, because of their education and abilities, deserve higher salaries, yet the disparity between the high requirements and low pay in the profession has not led to widespread pay equity campaigns. The satisfaction with lower pay that women often display may also be par- tially attributed to their selection of other groups with which to compare their sal- aries.

     summary: While the monograph describes the results of a survey of academic librar- ies in the United States and Canada, it also contains a well-researched historical overview of academic libraries, followed by a description of the organizational envi- ronment of libraries. Peggy Johnson has provided an excel- lent summary of state-of-the-art manage- ment of research libraries that have undergone or are in the process of under- taking a transition to automated sys- tems.

     summary: In this section, he outlines the possibility of introducing new types of variables and statistical analysis, and new research questions related to the de- mographics of scholarly communication (e.g., patterns of team research, number of active authors by discipline). The invisible college, for example, is widely accepted as a model of scholarly communication, but is typ- ically examined through measuring doc- uments and professional memberships.

     summary: Hernon divides LIS research into basic research, 588 the discovery of knowledge and theory · building; applied research, which in- cludes the testing, confirmation, revision, and refutation of knowledge; and action research, the investigation of a problem as an aid for local decision making. Between Hernon and Lynch, we are presented with a variety of viewpoints on factors affecting LIS research, includ- ing national agendas and international aspects, ideology, LIS education, the role of different agencies and interest groups, and the function of research in different types of libraries.

     summary: It presents the thesis that American social science developed under the influence of a na- tional ideology of uniqueness, or ex- ceptionalism, exaggerated to the point of claiming that this country was exempt from the vicissitudes of European his- tory. In part two, covering the thirty years after the Civil War, Ross focuses on the crisis in exceptionalist ideology and the formation of social science disciplines, particularly economics, political science, and sociology, which she regards as the core disciplines.

     summary: Within fifteen years, space pressure in the main library began to spin off a number of branch libraries, two of which were driven back into the main library by legislative pressures in the 1970s, and three of which are now being united into a science library. My experience with branch libraries indicates that collections are much more heavily used when they are in the same building as the offices and classrooms of their specialties.

     summary: We might: • review research-based books produced in other professions and disciplines, noting the omission of important LIS procedural studies and coverage of the types of evaluations encountered in complex organizations, such as libraries and information centers; • conduct procedural and other types of research with investigators from other professions and disciplines, thereby altering the self-contained paradigm noted by Gatten; • expect more LIS faculty directing doc- toral students, and the students them- selves, to be well versed and experienced in the conduct of different types of re- search and the use of various theoret- ical frameworks; • offer special awards and prizes for such research; and • attend sessions of professional associ- ations in which researchers present procedural studies. College and Research Libraries Editorial LIS Extends to the Research Frontier Advancements in research procedures (research designs and methodologies) and in the development of reliability and validity indicators occur on a cross-dis- ciplinary and interdisciplinary basis.

Carrying no news or advertising, this journal also avoids footnotes, academic jargon, book reviews, and single-theme issues, although contrasting views on a subject are occasionally juxtaposed in one issue (the second issue for 1991 in- cludes two articles on the Net Book Agreement, for example).

The lesson to be learned is that electronic serials, even when physically unprepossessing and produced on shoestring budgets, can be highly visible and powerful.

     summary: The implementation of information technologies could not have happened at a worse time for academic librarians. Both the increase in the amount of infor- mation being produced and the im- plementation of information technology have occurred at a time when higher edu- cation institutions are rethinking the economic model for academic library fund- · ing.

     summary: RESEARCH METHOD The present study set out to learn if circumstances have changed sufficiently in the 1990s to permit constructing a method for estimating preliminarily the amount of media space needed. This paper explores possibilities for remedying the perceived lack of methods for predicting the amount of floor area likely to be required for media services in four-year college and university libraries.

     summary: It is not an in-depth treatment of case precedent nor a manual of copyright law, but an explana- tion of the underlying constitutional premises of copyright. They feel that the 1976 Copyright Act clearly expresses the intent of Congress to establish copyright on the statutory-grant theory, but that copyright owners and the courts have continued to view copyright as a prop- erty right rather than a limited monopoly.

     summary: Bolter accepts that cultural unity is a thing of the past, but expects that computer texts and computer networks will allow like- minded people to come together and find some sense of communal purpose. Bolter contends that hypertext frees the text from this hierarchy and can blur the distinctions between author, text, and reader.

     summary: The first, 'The Economics of Journal Publishing: The Librarian's View, provides, uniquely in this conference, the conceptual frame- work as well as the supporting statistics for the fiscal dilemma confronting librar- ies as STM journal costs continue to exceed both the general inflation rates of the publishing industry and the ability of research library budgets to support subscriptions in the breadth and depth once thought desirable. Meadows does not point out all the motivations for scientists to publish papers, missing the July 1992 crucial one of creating a paper record of research for promotion and to support grant applications.

     summary: But ultimately, selection of the best candidate, at a given salary, is an administrative decision based on consultation with library faculty. My informal research indicates that library faculty have only very foggy ideas about the amount of money availa- ble for such discretionary items as travel, equipment, and supplies even in those in- stitutions with full disclosure.

     summary: Since it is the ultimate function of academic libraries to support and promote scholarly communication across space and time, academic librari- ans need to learn as much as possible about the methods, conventions, and limitations of academic discourse- starting with some insight into just what academic discourse is and why it is an issue of such current interest in the social sciences and humanities. Useful and insightful comments are cer- tainly made along the way, but one mis- ses any effort to pull all of these varied ideas into any kind of meaningful whole or vision that would provide some over- view of the current state of the study of academic discourse.

     summary: In all these areas, and ·in many, many more instances, the author documents his view that the arrival of book technology swept away the chief ideological underpinnings of medieval and classical thought and paved the way for the rise of modern social, economic, and political structures in Europe. Although the title Cataloging Heresy might suggest that this book proposes radically different ways of looking at cat- aloging and bibliographic control, it is in- stead a rather useful overview of some of the problems with uniform titles, subject headings, classification, and the descrip- tion of special types of library materials.

     summary: Although timeliness is extremely im- portant in collection development, Zielinska and Bell's article on the selection of foreign- language materials for public libraries, for example, was originally published in 1980 and is updated only by a sh<?rt addendum. The impact of technology upon collection development is simply too profound to ignore.

     summary: I suppose we're just lucky that law librarians aren't being required to make courtroom presentations, medical librarians aren't required to perform surgery, bank librarians aren't required to approve loans .... Why, then, are some librarians who are employed by colleges and universities- not as library school faculty, but as practicing librarians-expected to do so?

     summary: One need only consider journals such as American His- torical Review, Contemporary Sociology, Con- temporary Psychology or Notes-all pub- lished by professional associations-to see how book reviews can help articulate and shape the best thinking in a discip- line. Since, at present, publishing on the Inter- net avoids many of the direct production and distribution costs of conventional journals, book reviews would seem to be prime candidates for an online journal.

If this book is any indication of the wisdom and facility with which libraries are prepar- ing for the advent of the online age, then the future of library services is indeed dim.-Ross Atkinson, Cornell University, Ithaca, New York.

     summary: In a brief introductory paragraph, she dismisses out of hand obtrusive techniques of data gathering such as sur- veys and interviews, and makes vague and undocumented references to inter- nal debates about the nature of 'library feminism' and defensiveness among library women in an effort to justify her design of an empirical, unobtrusive study. She proposes to test the impact of various kinds of feminism in three ways: 1) content analysis of literature about library women by American li- brary women published during this pe- riod (some 250 books and articles); 2) citation analysis of this literature with an aim to classify the feminist authors out- side librarianship who have been cited by library women; and 3) content analy- sis of all programs devoted to women's issues at the American Library Associa- tion annual meetings during these same two decades.

Such a program would address the need for mass deacidification, de- monstrate a market for these services, encourage the nascent industry, test cooperative selection, and push libraries to develop recurring budgets for this form of preservation.

It is good to read that strategic planning is going well in academic libraries (Meredith Butler and Hiram Davis, Strategic Planning as a Catalyst for Change in the 1990s, College & Research Libraries, 53:393-403, Sept. 1992), but not so good that some early pioneers are still being overlooked in the current literature of library planning.

Stieg does not do that, and so cannot seriously address the question of the place of LIS programs or schools in research universities; nor can she answer the questions she poses of what a good LIS school is and what a school's re- sponsibilities are.

     summary: As one of the leading advocates of critical pedagogy, Giroux struggles to formalize theory that draws inspiration from many ideologies and rejects rigid- ity: Any pedagogy that acts in the serv- ice of only one outcome generally constitutes a form of terrorism. In Border Crossings, Giroux de- scribes the use of this term as an example of the politics of erasure in which all manner of problems are no longer addressed in serious terms; instead, it has become commonplace to deflect or mask one's complicity with these practices by labelling those who argue against them ideological tyrants.

     summary: This timely report on the present sta- tus of scholarly communication is a joint effort of the Mellon Foundation, which has demonstrated considerable interest in academic libraries for at least the past five years, and the Association of Re- search Libraries (ARL). As a comprehensive yet succinct statement of the conditions sur- rounding scholarly communication and the evolving role of the academic re- search.library, the Mellon study offers a welcome opportunity to take stock, re- flect, and place very rapidly moving developments in a useful perspective.

     summary: It concerns it- self not with single authors or presses, nor regional publishing, nor reviews, how-to-books, vanity or subsidy publish- ing, or fine presses. The problem is that there has been a culture shift, and what Glazier chooses finally to call small press, numbering about 700 at the beginning of his period, has been overwhelmed by small, independent publishers of New Age books, cookbooks, and self-help books.

     summary: Considering the role of librarians in the production of this volume, this expenditure of library re- sources for the duplication and redupli- cation of conference papers of uneven quality is ironic. A third issue, quite separate from the quality of the proceedings, is whether it is necessary to republish them after prior publication as volume 15 (1992) of the journal Collection Management.

     summary: Many librarians and academics see the low marginal cost of disseminating a copy of an electronic article and the fact that few electronic journals charge a fee as evidence that electronic journals will solve the current problem of serials price escalation. The simplest economic model of electronic journals is identical to a model of high- priced print journals that are not sold at a lower price to individual subscribers.

     summary: Librarian managers need to communi- cate the nature of their special organiza- tional contributions more clearly, as Larry R. Oberg has noted in his work on paraprofessionals.2 Working to prepare a finished recommendation on reorgani- zation, the Penn State Libraries' Human Resources Manager Nancy Slaybaugh, the university's specialist on organiza- tional design Anita Schmidt, and I de- cided to initiate team management by asking the order librarians, receiving librarian, and approval plan librarian to form an Acquisitions Management Team that would assume the duties of the chief for acquisitions. If three librarians who had adopted an every-woman-for-herself approach to the interim period could forge a team, the remainder of the acquisitions depart- ment would realize that they, too, could make a transition to team management.

     summary: Peters found that remote use was heaviest on week- day afternoons, and that there was com- paratively little use of remote access in the evenings and on weekends. As at Penn State, remote access to the OPAC at Kansas City was not avail- able when the library was closed.4 Two other studies treat the time pat- terns of remote use only in passing.

Subsequent conferences focusing on social science data sponsored by the National Science Foundation (NSF) and the American Association for the Ad- vancement of Science in 1988 and 1989 inspired much of the work in this volume.

     summary: After Farber's introductory paper, in which he rehearses the familiar argu- ments for library instruction and the development of the Earlham program, the volume reproduces papers that de- scribe departmental instructional ration- ales and goals, specific assignments, and instructional techniques. and testi- monials cover the librarian's role in course and assignment design and the role of library instruction in the ex- perience of students, faculty, and admin- istration; the volume concludes with a helpful annotated bibliography of major works in the library instruction field from 1980 to 1992.

     summary: That being the case, what would happen, one wonders, if at a certain point academic libraries began to suspect that commercial ven- dors were developing a capacity to pro- vide better service at a distance than libraries were able to provide on site? To begin with, academic libraries need to acknowledge and to prepare for a situation in the not- too-distant future in which they will enter into a very real and strenuous com- petition with commercial scholarly pub- lishers and other vendors to become the dominant information service providers for students and faculty users.

     summary: It is both synthesis and commentary, in- tended to provide a background against which students and practitioners can make intelligent decisions about the fu- ture of library and information service in these changing times. But, as Harris and Hannah also point out, something very real is happening to contemporary society as a result of the emergence of information technology, yet we re- main uncertain as to what it is. F. W. Lancaster, foremost advocate of the paperless library, is introduced as Bell's counterpart within the library pro- fession.

The editors throw together such diverse computational and analytical areas as Internet-accessible catalogs, document retrieval, text management software, textual analysis, and critical editions, making it difficult to find one's way in a sea of irrelevant noise.

     summary: what was forecast decades ago was confirmed, that there has been significant growth in all three scales in almost all nations, that the richer nations are more advanced and advancing faster than poor nations with undereducated populations, and that the United States and Japan are closest to being information societies, al- though they fall short of expectations in many ways. It has nothing to say about the application of information technologies in the scien- tific or academic realms.

The determinists have erred when communication messages were thought to have the effect of a hypodermic needle; they erred when development communication was treated as a panacea to problems in Third World nations; and we believe they are wrong today .when information technologies are portrayed as the panacea for equitable world economic growth.

     summary: Almost 500 articles, many with illustrations and tables, cover three areas: library services in the countries of the world and international organiza- tions, biographies of eminent librarians, and broadly conceived articles on librar- ies, librarianship, and their relation to society. The most obvious new feature of this edition is the inclusion of articles and sixteen pages of color pictures on five great libraries.

As if fundamental shifts in the finan- cial base of research universities were not enough, higher education is also beset with an epistemological crisis and with deeply conflicting promptings on diversity.

     summary: [Nov. 1993): 458-60), Ross Atkinson predicts that the needs of primary academic library users will · eventually be met either by specialty scholarly publisher or by libraries. • Even though libraries have often ranked themselves as if they were warehouses, library associations must develop new, relevant standards.

     summary: Three central themes emerge from the initial issues of JIE: (1) the philosophical basis of information ethics, (2) censor- ship, and (3) electronic information and its consequences. Practicing librari- ans draw on these principles to make pragmatic decisions about such matters as access to information, censorship, pri- vacy, conflict of interest, and intellectual property.

     summary: At one point in the book we have a discussion of Karl Popper's world 3 theory as it relates to information science, while at another we get a discussion of online versus manual database searching infused with neolo- gisms such as BIBBLE: To BIBBLE is to look for a bibliography already pre- pared, before launching into the effort of preparing one. If a librarian, upon completing formal training in the library and information science, has little need for the research of library and information science, then what is its purpose?

     summary: For then and there-during the forging of stand- ard nonstandard processing practices in American libraries; during the growth of a plantation mentality by and toward library workers; during the debate on the proper training for librarians; during the calcification of the LC-ALA-ARL minuet-is the story of how our profes- sion got to be the way we were, and are. [LC] became the center of a virtual network of American libraries and librarians.

     summary: The application of these principles to a con- flict situation, such as that involving centralized versus regional networks, is supposed to result in a formulation of cooperative, rather than competing, re- lationships. What emerges from the analysis, however, are a few basic and understandable conclu- sions: (1) that a centralized structure such as OCLC can be most effective in dealing with subordinate organizations, such as regional networks, if it attains a decentralized structure of authority; (2) that competitive forces should be openly acknowledged and reduced to levels that will not destroy networking goals; (3) that good communications are of ut- most importance; and (4) that policy for- mulations and role definitions should be clearly expressed and communicated.

     summary: Staff, the technical infrastructure, and information resources are the building blocks of research libraries now and will be integral parts of the research library of the future, whatever form it takes. Yet the very quotation from my book that precedes and is apparently intended to support Franklin's statement notes that research libraries conserve not only the record of scholarship (the written, printed, and now electronically encoded information generated by the schol- arly process) but also other information of immediate or potential value to research.

     summary: Whitlatch urges in- trospection of reference librarians about the reference process so that they may examine and identify variables that help explain quality service while they wait for more sophisticated studies that use a greater variety of evaluation methods.4 One area that merits closer examina- tion involves the assumptions of refer- ence service. As illus- trated above in the reference setting, reference librarians are dealing with a set consisting of the range of satisfac- tory.

     summary: Beginning in 1989 and running through 1990, the authors first held dis- cussions with women faculty at eight library schools in various regions of the United States, conducted telephone in- terviews with one hundred women (out of the 236 full-time female faculty in ac- credited U.S. library schools and pro- grams), and presented preliminary findings at the 1990 annual conference of ALISE (Association for Library and Information Science Education) in Chicago. Carefully and conscientiously, the authors document from their sample the benefits many women faculty have de- rived from mentoring and being men- tored.

     summary: The essays are ostensibly tied together by a preface and an epi- logue, which obliquely suggest what may be the author's taking-off point: Chartier's restating of the complex, subtle, shifting relationships between books and their readers in earlier times as a paradigm for his uneasy coming to terms with the world of electronic texts. In the essays, originally published in French in 1992, Chartier questions, elu- cidates, and theorizes about ideas put forth by himself and others on such sub- jects as the relationships between text, print, and reader; changing perceptions of the connection between author and text, literary property, and censorship; and the various meanings of library (bib- · liotheque) as space, compilation/ conden- sation, or book catalog.

     summary: In three sections, each supported by ex- planatory essays, the catalog focuses on the works of early monastic libraries (I Libri del Silenzio); the collections of manuscripts and printed volumes of the great Renaissance libraries, such as the Medicea Laurenziana of Florence and Modena's Estense (I Libri del Decoro); and treasures from the libraries of Italy's cardinals (I Libri del Porporo). This new journal was conceived to redress the perceived marginalization of college libraries and their concerns in the professional litera- ture.

     summary: Hallmark selected nineteen journals from which to take the sample of articles, journals recommended by scientists and chosen through independent evaluations; the evaluations are attributed to Katz's Magazines for Libraries, 1989, which is general and dated. Hallmark has already restricted her research to cited journal articles; with monographs, conferences and patents excluded this formula is more restrictive still.

     summary: Birdsall does not deal directly with academic libraries, except to note that they have been moving increasingly closer on the continuum to the special library model. In a discussion of politics and libraries, for example, he observes that far from be- ing a radical break from the past, an electronic revolution, the myth of the electronic library represents an effort to incorporate social change into a neo-con- servative framework.

     summary: Because this process and its results are so important for the membership of ACRL, I want to describe briefly the level of involvement of the membership, the techniques that have been used to gather information and feedback from ACRL members and leaders, and to give you a sense of the documents as they currently stand. In addition tore- sponding to the membership survey of 1992 (a sample-not the entire member- ship-was surveyed), these sessions have identified key ACRL values, oppor- tunities, and threats; they have focused on issues of communication, member services, and the role of ACRL in the national higher education community; they have identified diversity and the 11graying of academic librarianship as human resources issues of concern to the association on behalf of its membership.

Factors that helped to shape library policy were: (1) the reality that distribution of the alt.fan.karla.homolka usergroup was in violation of the court order, (2) the vari- ety of institutional responses received from directors of Canadian libraries, (3) the complexity of screening informa- tion as it arrived in libraries, (4) the va- riety of formats in which information was available, and most significantly, (5) the librarians' value system as ex- pressed in the statement of the Canadian Association of Research Libraries and in discussion with McGill librarians.

     summary: Scholarly information: Stanley Chod- orow, provost of the University of Penn- sylvania, predicted the continuation of print for a long, long time, but the end of an era when scholarly text was fixed. The digital library may cede its place in the geographical center of campus but specialist librarians should not cede their place at the center of the production and interpretation of scholarly information.

     summary: One reason for this trend is the massification (i.e., massive growth) of higher education following World War II (pp. 70-89). But these political initiatives were many years in the making, and by 1993 the editors of this volume had al- ready detected a crisis of legitimacy in higher education, as in other public in- stitutions.

     summary: Dow maintains that the library Editorial 7 as a philosophical construct, whose in- trinsic worth on campus is mandated by its very existence, is impractical and out of step with the operating environment of higher education at the end of the 20th century. Meanwhile, we must in- vent ways to make our vision of the ben- efits of higher education as powerful to the public as the vision of incarcerated 8 College & Research Libraries criminals.

     summary: As one of my philosophy teach- ers used to say, Maybe yes, maybe no.) Charles Newman asserts that the posi- tion of academic library director as we know it today is quickly becoming ex- tinct, a fact borne out by the number of library deans and directors who have re- cently been appointed as heads of infor- mation units overseeing computing cen- ters, telecommunications, and even the university press, in addition to the library. This ambitious volume calls upon a cadre of international specialists, ranging from scholars to practitioners, to inform the reader about the past and future status of book publishing.

     summary: Susan Hockey offers a succinct histori- cal overview of electronic texts in the humanities since the 1940s, emphasizing the necessity of descriptive markup that recognizes the structural components of texts and demonstrating the ways in which some of the lessons learned have been applied to digital imaging. This book, which publishes the papers presented at the 1994 Clinic on Library Applications of Data Processing, focuses on fairly recent developments in the area of electronic texts.

     summary: Librarians have a lot to offer, but that potential will come to naught unless librarians can act in unity within states, unless we can work in part- nership among our state and regional chapters and ACRL, and unless we can get other nonlibrarian advocates to cham- pion our cause. The respect, or lack thereof, that is accorded to school and public librarians has everything to do with how academic librarians are per- ceived and even more to do with how the information needs of people are met.

     summary: A four-page con- cluding chapter abruptly suggests that the force of new information technologies will make librarians redefine their work; that the term librarian has become anach- ronistic; and that what may be needed is a new type of information professional who is expert in the new information technologies and educated in a new sort of professional school of information studies or communication and informa- tion systems, which would result from library education joining forces with edu- cators in (unspecified) information and communication fields. Many books on library issues these days are obsolete before they appear in print.

     summary: Mary Niles Maack, in Women As Vision- aries, Mentors, and Agents of Change, outlines the dismal regression of women library school faculty from the age of missionaries and mentors (1887-1923) through a transitional period of professionalization that began to exclude women (1923-1950) to the era of the mas- culine professoriate (1951-present). Another kind of missionary zeal char- acterizes Women, Information, and the Fu- ture: to empower women by organizing and disseminating information on legal rights, health, employment, politics, and the environment.

A Call to Arms Bonnie Juergens For this respondent, the bottom line in commenting on Choosing Our Futures is the answer to two questions: (1) How accurate are Stoffle, Renaud, and Veldof in defining the current academic library environment and explicating the need for change in academic libraries?

     summary: In thinking about ways to encourage the teaching of library instruction skills in library schools, com- mittee members realized that investigat- ing attitudes of employers toward library instruction might yield data lending fur- ther support to the idea of formal educa- tion in library instruction for library school· students. Thus, the literature search shed some light on ways in which practicing librar- ians feel they could best be prepared to do library instruction, as well as on rea- sons why library instruction is usually not formally taught in library schools.

     summary: 7-9 Recent literature focuses on the stress placed on library directors as a result of their middle-management status, but there is another factor that relates to stress: the presence or absence of faculty status for professional library staff mem- bers. The findings were that there did, in fact, seem to be a positive rela- tionship between job satisfaction and faculty status.

     summary: The fifteen chapters cover the full array of reference service components, for example, library users and reference pa- trons, reference environment, electronic databases and reference assistance, refer- ence training, costs and outcomes, and reference effectiveness. Since we know so little as yet about the ways in which the Internet, electronic reference tools, or ex- pert systems will affect the reference trans- action and its assessment, it seems prema- ture to assume that what has been tested and used effectively in a paper-based world will be entirely valid and usefulas is or with minimal change in the emerg- ing electronic and networked world.

     summary: One of the most significant findings in Metz' s study was the dramatic increase in the representation of women authors in C& RL since 1979. John and Jane Olsgaard' s study of five major library sci- ence journals in the 1970s revealed that men were more highly represented than women in each of the journals.7 Martha C. Adamson and Gloria J. Zamora ap- plied the Olsgaards' methodology to an examination of authorship in five journals of interest to special librarians during the 1970s.8 Although male authors were still predominate, accounting for 56.3 percent of all articles published, in two of the jour- nals women authors were actually in the majority.

     summary: An interdisciplinary review of the literature shows that few authors have devoted attention to library security in higher educa- tion. Sugges- tions include: written emergency procedures, security equipment, and crime prevention staff training, along with safer building design, staff work area rearrangement, more campus involvement in library security, and improved employee/patron communication to ensure a safe, friendly, and pro-library environment.

     summary: Now more than ever, libraries need to position them- selves in the best economic light in such a way as to illuminate the intellectual richness of library resources and to counter the negative impression fostered by the high costs of library materials. Because library users will be able to access information through an in- creasing variety of ways, librarians will need to mediate the transfer of informa- tion.

     summary: Janes provides a useful classification scheme that organizes all the current Internet search services into three categories: vir- tual libraries (topical directories of se- lected resources), Internet directories (topical directories of all known re- sources), and search tools (search en- gines), which provide keyword search- ing capability. The remaining three chapters focus on the three types of search services: virtual libraries, Internet directories, and search tools.

Prob- ably not, but it deals with fundamental issues of importance to faculties of schools of information studies as they prepare their students for work in the coming decades, as well as for those members of the profession who have an orientation not toward the library as an institution but, rather, toward meeting the challenges of providing accurate, timely, and relevant information in an uncertain future.

Fifteen years ago, H. William Axford wrote that there was every reason to believe that the long-term collection use study will become widespread and that it will result in fundamental changes in the way library collections are managed Some respondents lamented the nonavailability of needed programs and the inability to persuade the appropriate persons that the programs should be developed.

Wiebe's Self-Rule: A Cultural History of American Democracy (1995) and Lawrence K. Grossman's The Electronic Republic: Reshaping Democracy in the Information Age (1995). Certainly if education is presumed to be vital to an informed and responsible citizenry, it would appear that the current lack of reform in American education augurs ill for the future.

(Cu- riously, experts who go unmentioned in this and the other chapters have demon- strated the worth of simple principles for improving nonacademic writing; e.g., Anthony Trollope, working to improve the reports written by officials of the postal system a century ago, brought about significant changes in the clarity of, and time invested in, administrative writing.)

     summary: This fifth publication from the Comparative Research Programme on Poverty (CROP) compiles a prodigious amount of information on alternative poverty conceptualizations, theories, September 1996 policies, and research, although it is not a handbook in the customary sense of the term nor strictly a comparative treatise on methodologies of poverty research, as the title might suggest. Individual chapters vary in comprehensiveness based on the history and volume of poverty research in a country.

     summary: Herbert Schiller's critique of the domi- nance of market criteria and corporate self-interest in information development, and of class inequalities in access to in- formation, gets a very sympathetic ex- position. In Webster's view, the accounts of postindustrial society, postmodernism, and the information city (actually the in- formation mode of development that figures in Castells's theory) support the idea of a new type of society resulting from information developments, where- as others, especially Schiller, Giddens, and Habermas, favor the claim that there has been no sharp break but, rather, de- velopment continuous with the past.

Wilder, assistant dean for technical and financial services at Louisiana State University Libraries, the purpose of the report is to: (1) corn- pare the age demographics of academic librarians to the age demographics of members of comparable professions, (2) examine the dramatic increase in age of librarians between 1990 and 1994, and (3) project the retirement rates of academic li- brarians over the next twenty-five years. Additionally, the author wanted to explore the possible explanations for, and impli- cations of, his discovery that academic li- brarians tend to be older than their coun- terparts in comparable professions.

     summary: The fundamental steps in cocitation are the selection of documents or authors for analysis; retrieval of cocitation frequencies, usually by searching the Science Citation Index (SCI) or the Social Sciences Citation Index (SSCI); compilation of a raw cocitation matrix; conversion of the raw data matrix to a correlation matrix; analysis of the correla- tion matrix through nonrnetric multidimen- sional scaling (MDS); and finally, interpre- tation and validation of the results.4 Some of the problems inherent in coci- tation studies are similar to those in other ci- tation methodologies, such as a lack of con- sistency in name authority of cited authors and selection of prominent documents or authors within a given field. Conversely, lower correla- tions indicate that citing authors perceive the two authors to be less related because of either research interest or some other factor, such as research methodology.

Lanham is long on promise and enthusi- asm but short on specifics, to some ex- tent understandably so because much is yet to be discovered about how the com- puter will influence Western education.

Thus, as knowledge for Mantovani is not simply processed information, so, too, are technologies not neutral forces for progress; rather, their cultural dimensions require that we ask the political questions about who uses them and to what ends.

     summary: He cau- tions that RSI is not to be taken lightly and that CTS is costly, thus prevention is far better and cheaper than the cure.9 In 1990, James M. Kusack surveyed fifty-eight large public libraries to find out whether public library employees were affected with CTS as much as news- paper or telephone company employees were.10 Of the thirty-eight libraries re- sponding to his survey, seventeen re- ported one or more employees with CTS (one of which reported nine cases) and twenty-one said they were unaware of any injured employees in their libraries. A further implication of the study is that other library tasks, including the handling of materials, photocopying, and outside activities may contribute to CTS.

     summary: Although ISI has enough computer power and expertise to undertake that, the fact that it did not release a single such report indicates that other considerations were involved�one of those doubtless being the realization that large-scale uncitedness was not sim- ply a matter of �great interest� but also constituted a controversial and trouble- some area. Although mea- surement of uncitedness at the major- discipline level was technically fea- sible, it generated findings that had only limited meaning, were misinter- preted, and would be challenged by anyone�s �reality check� of a few se- lect journals.

     summary: Only one title from this list (New England Journal of Medicine) is on the list of journals students cited, and three appear on the list of jour- nals retrieved from InfoTrac (Nature, Sci- ence, and Lancet). Because faculty members are less likely than students to rely on an index to find journal articles, and certainly less likely to consult a general, multidis-ciplinary index, the authors could not rely on a rep- lication of the Expanded Academic Index strategy that gave insight into student searches.3 Instead, to measure faculty journal use, they followed the examples of Stephanie C. Haas and Kate Lee4, and Keith Swigger and Adeline Wilkes5 by examining the journal titles in which WIU faculty published their research and the titles they cited in these publications.

     summary: Peterson argues: (1) The decline in reading and its complement, an increase in oral intake, will mean that users will be less patient than ever with �slow sequential written finding aids� and will want faster computer or screen access; (2) the decline in writing will mean an increase in oral inquiries, with attendant imprecision; archival staffs will have to devote more time to clarifying and defining the object of a patron search because it will be less structured or logical thoughtout; (3) the decline in arithmetical skills will have a direct impact on users� ability to structure a database search successfully. Put another way, how do archivists �trans- late� users� queries into terms that can be searched in archival-finding aids?18 Both approaches imply that reference ar- chivists will have to train users.

     summary: Methodology To research the issue of quality in aca- demic library publishing, the authors of this study surveyed both journal editors and journal authors to examine both sides of the publishing equation. Do we attempt to gauge quality when we judge our peers during personnel reviews, or is the quan- tity of published articles the primary fac- tor by which we judge? Reasons for Study The attainment of faculty status for librar- ians at the University of Toledo (UT) fol- lowed a course similar to that at other in- stitutions.

     summary: Beginning with the human capacity for speech and its transformation into communities held together by orality, Lacy traces the history of communication in European and Anglo-American cultures along a single line: from oral to written culture, and from writing to printing, and the emergence of new media in the late 1800s through the twentieth century. First, toward the end of the book Lacy expresses grave concerns over the “in- formation disenfranchised,” arguing a widely held belief that many people— even whole societies—are information poor because they lack access to avail- able information within the mainstream of communication systems.

The book trade in Phila- delphia, the republic’s capitol during the 1790s, is known for its variety of output during the 18th century, and abundant specific evidence survives in the form of correspondence, account books, city directories, and the books themselves.

     summary: Librarians have lately begun to debate the merits of corporate funding of librar- ies—witness the brouhaha two years back over materials developed in a joint ALA-McDonalds venture to promote family reading that were imprinted with the “golden arches.” He writes of the “culture of greed” taking root in our nation’s col- leges and universities as they become more dependent on corporate funding: huge salaries and luxurious “perks” for university CEOs; “savings” realized through cuts in payrolls from the re- placement of full-time faculty with tem- porary, part-time adjuncts; the hiring of ever greater numbers of administrators who have little or no direct contact with students; hefty increases in tuition with- out decreases in faculty/student ratios.

Several factors can influence the pres- tige rankings of graduate programs when those rankings are based on the ratings of deans, top administrators, and senior faculty.

     summary: What about the invention of writing it- self, which threatened to replace oral forms of cultural transmission, or the replacement of the scroll with the codex, which permitted “random access” to text? James J. O’Donnell (“The Prag- matics of the New: Trithemius, McLuhan, Cassiodorus”) iden- tifies three periods of crisis: (1) late antiquity, when the authority of writ- ten texts was established; (2) the fif- teenth century, a period of considerable resistance to printed books; and (3) the age of Marshall McLuhan’s prophecies about the medium and the message. As a matter of fact, digiti- zation makes book publishing easier.

Although the focus of the volume is on academic libraries, issues such as shrinking budgets and new technologies are ones that all libraries face as they try to adapt to an ever-changing and complex environment.

     summary: Although each Book Reviews 283 case seeks to analyze higher education in light of the way knowledge and aca- demic work are created in a national context, the cases are not easily com- pared. A chapter on higher education in Chile by Figueroa and Valle is less insightful because it becomes entangled in a discussion of academic decentrali- zation in a world of political centraliza- tion.

     summary: This type of organization recognizes that continuous improvement requires a demonstrated commitment to learn- ing.1 The concept of the academic library as a learning organization is not new; library staff have depended on one an- other and the collective learning envi- ronment of the library and its closely associated constituencies for many years. We are witnessing more people working among various units in the li- brary; thus, we have a greater interde- pendence among library staff.

     summary: With this term the my- thology of the �free� library is dispelled, and a more accurate metaphor for ser- vice is substituted.�8 Weingand provides little, if any, evidence for the rhetoric of customer service being a more accurate description of the relationship between the library and its community. There are some problems, which are discussed in detail, with the popularly held notions of library users as customers and of library services as commodities.

     summary: Daniel Ream has argued that objective evaluation of book review journals has been relatively neglected in “An Evaluation of Four Book Review Journals,” Research Quarterly 19 (winter 1979): 149. 3. However, despite the widely acknowledged importance of book reviewing, researchers have indicated the need for more critical evaluations of re- views.2 The authors examined this subject by conducting a comparative analysis of Ameri- can history book reviews in three highly regarded journals.

     summary: The essays following those of Mont- gomery and Lewontin illustrate the manner in which Cold War influence on the production of knowledge through the elaboration, justification, and mys- tification of Cold War ideology at uni- versities wormed its way through the academic disciplines. Three essays, those of David Mont- gomery (Yale), R. C. Lewontin (Harvard), and Noam Chomsky (M.I.T.), describe the forces that generated a climate in which the prevailing Cold War ideology shaped the development of academic departments, curriculum, re- search priorities, and the hiring (and fir- ing!)

     summary: However, scholars expressed widespread satis- faction with library services, including computerized resources. The respon- dents were asked for opinions on ac- cess to book and journal collections, if the collections were up to date, status of library services, use of electronic re- sources, and how changes in library collections and services affected re- search.

     summary: The author reminds readers that the present curriculum that critics of today lament was denounced as trivial and anti-intellectual in the past; that the Western Civilization requirement which many regard as the heart and soul of the curriculum did not come into being until a government program instituted it after World War I to ensure that American values were being taught; and that the recent debate over the American-centered literary canon is unfortunately dominated by an un- founded fear that the canon is finite, and to add (e.g., ethnic and gender studies) to it would mean the elimination of something else. The Adman in the Parlor may be read for fun and profit by any librarian who makes purchases, reads magazines, or thinks about American culture.

     summary: In addition to receiving manuscripts authored by two or more librarians, I am seeing more manuscripts authored by a practicing librarian and a library/infor- mation school faculty member. Unlike a couple of other journals I have edited for which I had to actively solicit manuscripts, C&RL re- ceives far more manuscripts than it can carry.

     summary: In any case, only a few of the documents compiled are con- cerned with department head positions and are able to provide a snapshot of library department head responsibilities in the libraries surveyed. As the reengineering process evolved, it became obvious that proposals from the teams would cross the traditional cataloging and acquisitions department lines, that other library departments and offices would become deeply involved, and that a lot of responsibility and power was vested in the reengineering teams.

Findings and Implications Libraries use a variety of recruitment methods to a�ract new professionals to residency programs, including traditional employment tools such as position an- nouncements in professional publica- tions, as well as brochures distributed to graduate library education programs.

     summary: Although there is some variation in its suggested content, there is agreement that a résumé is an important component of the application for academic library openings.12 Despite a�empts to guide individuals to the appropriate construction and con- tent of a résumé, the authors do not know whether academic library applicants actually consult such resources when pre- paring an application. In an a�empt to survey librarians who are rela- tively new to the profession (whom the authors defined as those who have held professional academic library positions for five years or less), people with obvi- ous administrative appointments such as deans, directors, assistant directors or deans, department heads, etc., were eliminated from consideration.

     summary: This corresponds to numerous studies which have shown that workers across a variety of occupations o�en pre- fer to use sources that are close at hand (referred to informally as the “arm’s- length rule”), even though there may be be�er sources available elsewhere.1 Libraries do not figure very promi- nently as information sources for univer- sity professional staff. The question that then arises is how to make them aware of the library system’s resources (including both mate- rials and personnel) at the time they are engaged in intensive research and writing and do need to make use of a wider range of information sources.

     summary: In a mere one hundred and twelve pages, Kenneth Megill summa- rizes the contributions of the three in- terrelated fields of records manage- ment, special librarianship, and ar- chives to the management of corporate information systems; and he charts a new course for information systems in the face of shifting technological and managerial patterns. He argues convincingly that the existing system fails to validate the two basic philosophical justifications for granting intellectual property rights: “first, that these rights encourage production and dissemination of artistic and intellectual creativity through pecuniary rewards to actual creators; and second, that they stimulate dissemination of this work to the benefit of society as a whole.”

     summary: Admittedly, the ability to access Internet “knowl- edge” (or more to the point, to differen- tiate between online trash and treasure) may make some slight contribution to career success in the years to come, but the strategic value of Internet access surely pales before the real determi- nants of class differentiation in Western society (class, race, and differential ac- cess to high-quality education). Sardar’s argument is likely to find its most welcome reception among fundamental- ist and totalitarian third-world regimes, considering their palpable fear that Internet connectivity will undermine to- talitarian control.

     summary: According to the authors, the potential utility of compar­ ing collection purchases with collection usage, departmental profiles, and stu­ dent course enrollment has been little ex­ plored, in part because “many libraries seem unconvinced of the value of the data.” Continued budgetary stringency in many libraries, combined with the need to look for ways to compress or move some library collections to storage, make this an extremely valuable chapter.

     summary: Roughly 80 percent of science serials have a cost per use in the hundreds of dollars, so it would be eco­ nomically rational to cancel the greater part of the science collection.12 For a balanced outcome, the low-use criterion comes into play—and that turns the analysis around, with about 20 percent of the science col­ lection then being targeted. If all 296 low-use, high-cost-per-use serials had been shifted from ownershipto access the previous year, total document delivery charges would have been about $3,000, less than two percent of total costs of $215,000. average for low- use, high-cost-per­ use titles ($537) or the subset of ex­ tremely low-use titles ($605).13 With nearly 300 titles in this pool of poten­ tial cost savings, the library could well afford to let the academic de­ partments pick and majority of science serials conceivably could be cut on strictly economic grounds.

Rubens The ACRL Women’s Studies Section Technical Services Committee in­ vestigated the assignment of subject headings to core works in women’s studies. More than one au­ thor has pointed out sexist language and limited concepts reflected in the LCSH.1 Sanford Berman’s book on LC subject headings for people documents sexism throughout LCSH; Joan K. Marshall’s On Equal Terms documented extensive prob­ lems with subject headings about women.2–3 According to Judith Hudson and Victoria A. Mills, ALCSH reflects a white male bias in its representation of the world: Men are the norm and women, the exception.

     summary: Patents theoretically encourage public disclo­ sure of novel information in exchange for a limited monopoly (fair or exces­ sive) on specific product designs. Exclu­ sive of adequate patents, free markets would tend to overproduce redundancy and underproduce novelty precisely because trade secrecy impedes the free flow of ideas from which subse­ quent innovations derive.

Although participation in the Tenure Support Group is not mandatory, it is rec­ ommended by both supervisors and the library’s Committee on Appointment, Promotion, and Tenure as a valuable source of information on the tenure pro­ cess and related topics and as a source of moral support throughout the years of pursuit of tenure.

     summary: Cyberarchives of Web Sites At first glance, it seems logical to have an archive of Web sites housed on the Inter­ net itself. Acquiring Web Sites The hardest part of acquiring Web sites for an archive will be selling the idea of a cyberarchive to the Web site owner.

     summary: It would appear that in 1997, more catalogers were handling disserta­ tions and theses than in 1987 (55.1% com­ pared to 50.9%), rare books/special col­ lections materials (51.1% compared to 40.8%), and government documents (53.4% compared to 47.3%). Automation definitely has decreased the amount of original catalog­ ing done in academic libraries, and there is agreement in the literature that tasks for­ merly assigned to professional catalogers have shifted downward to paraprofes­ sional support staff members.1–4 Much dis­ cussion has focused on what has been called the “deprofessionalization” of tech­ nical services and cataloging, with various attributions of cause.5–7

     summary: Individual versus the Group Supervising diverse student employees means dealing with different levels and types of work experience as well as asso­ ciated work norms. Before differences create conflict between the supervisor and diverse student employees, or between them, it is good practice to learn about the culture and work norms these stu­ dents have learned previously.29 Evaluating a Diverse Work Force Providing frequent positive reinforce­ ment for desired behavior can be very ef­ fective when it comes to motivating a cul­ turally diverse staff.

     summary: In charting this spread across Europe, Space between Words gives careful consideration to the addi­ tional graphic cues that allowed medieval readers to read fluidly, rapidly, and si­ lently: capitalization to mark the begin­ nings of certain words; traits d’union (roughly, hyphens) showing the lack of completion of a word at the end of a line; ligatures and “monolexisms” (such as the “&”) that aided the “compaction” of text—all technological devices improving reading efficiency. Of course, separations of texts into word units did not happen by fiat or all at once but, instead, emerged slowly, from the seventh century on, beginning in the Scriptoria of the British Isles and moving gradually eastward and south­ ward through Europe.

     summary: William Fisher’s “The Value of Profes­ sional Associations” comes to the remark­ able conclusion that “without such asso­ ciations of which they become officers, without professional association confer­ ences at which they attend and/or deliver papers and go to meetings, and without professional association publications of which they become editors, reviewers, and/or authors, library directors would have to devote more of their time to the day-to-day running of their libraries. Also noteworthy is Sue Kamm’s survey of why librarians choose to join associations (for networking, receipt of publications, op­ portunity to contribute to the profession, and so on).

Any of these methods can yield satisfactory outcomes if the library and faculty liaisons are working together.

     summary: Findings and Implications Libraries use a variety of recruitment methods to attract new professionals to residency programs, including traditional employment tools such as position an­ nouncements in professional publica­ tions, as well as brochures distributed to graduate library education programs. A number of residency programs started in the past ten to fifteen years also focus on the recruitment of minority librarians.

     summary: Academic libraries, one of the key players in providing and structuring instructional resources and services, also are expected to document how their performance contributes to institutional goals and outcomes. Using accreditation and ACRL sectional standards/criteria, higher education outcomes assessment research findings and recent findings from performance effectiveness studies, this article identifies important institutional outcomes to which academic libraries contribute; describes specific performance indicators whose measures of impacts and outputs provide evidence about progress and achievement; and offers a conceptual framework of assessment domains for the teach­ ing–learning library.

     summary: The issues of promotion and tenure, as well as faculty status, for academic librar­ ians have always been complex and at times controversial. The primary objective of the survey was to determine whether “librarians with faculty status have a greater oppor­ tunity for tenure and promotion than li­ brarians with academic or professional status.”

     summary: The book maps in fine detail the in­ terplay during the exhibit’s planning be­ tween “five old men” (vets initially con­ cerned with the physical restoration of the Enola Gay) and the Smithsonian; between these men, veterans organizations, and members of Congress; between the Smithsonian Institution and the NASM; between the academic community and the museum; and between all of these and the media. The book is organized chronologi­ cally and relies heavily on quotations from exhibit planning documents, label scripts, memos, correspondence, newspa­ per stories, and editorials.

In their view, although the number of books and articles dealing with the prob­ lem of misconduct in research has grown, few writers on the subject have been con­ cerned with the impact of false research and tainted publications on the scholarly literature; none has addressed the impact on libraries or the bibliographic process; and none has discussed whether librar­ ians have any obligations to notify users about materials found to be bogus.

     summary: Notwith­ standing the ambiguity associated with the unprecedented rate of change occur­ ring in academic libraries, for some inex­ plicable reasons, there is a shortage of transformational library leaders who can formulate a compelling vision and make it happen. If bud­ gets remain insufficient, library leaders will have to find ways to innovate by sub­ stitution (i.e., stop doing certain things to free up resources for more important ini­ tiatives).

     summary: Academic librarians who have been left puzzled by encounters with the current generation of college students may well find their experiences described in this study of the 1990s collegiate culture based on surveys conducted between 1992 and 1997 of 270 chief student affairs officers and 9,100 undergraduates, and supple­ mented with on-site interviews of staff and students. In comparing the consumerism of students in the 1970s with that of students in the 1990s, the ear­ lier generation is portrayed as reacting to a general trend toward social institu­ tions—post-Watergate and Ralph Nader—whereas this generation is react­ ing to a sense of separateness from cam­ pus life fostered by competing job com­ mitments and increasing part-time atten­ dance as well as to specific criticisms of higher education.

     summary: For the purposes of this paper, faculty status for librarians is defined as present only in those institutions where librarians are called faculty, where they possess most of the perquisites of faculty, and where they have tenure. The defense of faculty status for librar­ ians often includes the argument that li­ brarians and teaching faculty are partners in the academic experience.

     summary: Li­ brarians, and some faculty, understand the urgency in acquiring these resources: if the institution is to remain competitive with its peers and to attract students and new faculty to the campus, it must be re­ sponsive to rapid changes in scholarly communication. The danger was not only continued faculty ignorance, and hence indifference, to developments on the Web, but inadequate connectivity also jeopardized the university’s ability to at­ tract students, recruit new faculty, and retain current faculty who were becom­ ing more technologically demanding.

     summary: Slavic collections, for example, appear to be in dire need of preservation treatment, but there is very little hard data on the scope of the problem. This research project, conducted at the University of Kansas Libraries, is the first step toward gaining a better understanding of the overall condition of Slavic collections.

     summary: In an effort to improve profits and productivity for employers and the quality of work life for employees, many U.S. companies have begun to embrace humor in the workplace. Initiatives in business have included official programs such as creation of “humor rooms” for employee use as well as less-structured mechanisms such as encouraging the use of humor in memos and staff newsletters.

     summary: Historically, there have been two types of libraries within a university in China: university libraries and departmental li­ braries. Many scholars in China’s key universities have had significant accom­ plishments in research projects when they visited research universities abroad where they had access to the latest infor­ mation resources and facilities in science and technology.

     summary: Clearly, the author has strong opinions about multicultural librarianship, the role that Native libraries can play in their com­ munities, and the services that urban li­ braries should be ready to provide to a diverse clientele. This book is an ambitious attempt to con­ solidate available, yet scattered, informa­ tion on Native library development in Canada, Greenland, the former Soviet Union and present-day Russian Federa­ tion, the United States, and northern Scandinavia, with special emphasis on the circumpolar regions.

     summary: Each of the nine principal chapters covers “a basic refer­ ence form” categorized by the author as: encyclopedias; commonplace books to books of quotations; the reference of time: almanacs, calendars, chronologies, and March 1999 chronicles; ready-reference books: hand­ books and manuals; dictionaries, gram­ mar, and rhetoric; maps and travel guides; biography; bibliography, serials, and in­ dexes; and government documents. Katz emphasizes the period from Greco-Roman times to World War Two, and his stated purpose is “to give the lay reader and librarians a brief history of how reference books developed and how they reflect attitudes of their particular period of publication.”

     summary: Augustine (354–430) and Cassiodorus (c. 490–c. 583), both of whom figure prominently in O’Donnell’s scholarly ca­ reer, put in appearances throughout Ava­ tars as both significant characters in the development of textual culture and ref­ erence points in the interplay of continu­ ity and change across the centuries. The invention of movable type in the fifteenth century made the production and distri­ bution of texts easier, faster, and cheaper, as well as put access to textual culture within the reach of a much larger public.

     summary: Despite, or perhaps because of, the im­ portance of a largely quantitative infor­ mation science in the recent history of li­ brarianship, efforts to introduce us to, and school us in, qualitative research are now much more common than they once were. For example, Horn economically de­ scribes a set of four general theoretical ori­ entations that tends to frame much, if not all, of qualitative research: symbolic interactionism, phenomenology, herme­ neutics, and critical studies (the bibliog­ raphy provides many places to continue for those who are interested).

     summary: Because highly successful librar- ians use open-ended ques- tions, the system could use QUESTION LOG RESOURCES: REAL QUESTION REFERENCE questions phrased as fol-RECORD COLLECTION lows: (1) “What are you DATA trying to do with this in- formation?” or “How are ILL/ you going to use this in- COLLEAGUE/ COLLECTION formation?” or (2) “How REFER REQUEST KNOWLEDGE HUMAN MEMORY/ INTELLECT questions (e.g., what is the meaning of life). Furthermore, the author assumes that the reference process is: (1) goal directed in that inquirer and librarian are both en- gaged in solving or resolving8 an infor- mation problem, and (2) well bounded in that the problem-solution boundaries (i.e., the number of reference questions asked and reference questions answered) are finite.9 In the case of this article, en- larging our circle of knowledge about the system requirements (i.e., into the dimen- sion of the unknown mentioned above) would be aided by the existence of a use- ful model of the reference transaction.

     summary: Many contend that re- quiring academic librarians to divert their energies from their daily duties to meet research expectations is inappropriate. In the 1980s, several sur- veys discovered that the majority of in- stitutions where academic librarians had tenure-track status did not require the li- brarians to show much or any evidence of research and publication.32 At about the same time, John M. Budd and Charles A. Seavey examined the articles pub- lished during 1983–1987 in thirty-six jour- nals that were “national in scope” and found that 384 academic libraries could claim an author of at least one article.33

     summary: Historically, li- brary collection developers � � simply re- lied on their genuine passion for literature and inbred instinct for what was �right� when collecting.�13 G. Edward G. Evans�s lament that �Unfortunately, things have not changed that much in 35 years� re- mains largely true today.14 Previous attempts to quantify the de- mand for monographs in differing subjects have relied heavily on the inclusion of arti- ficially (qualitatively) derived weighted fac- tors designed to introduce a measure of �hardness� to the intellectual organization and content of the subject.5 Similar at- tempts have incorporated preconceived notions of thresholds and optimal magni- tudes of total monographs or monographs per student and the assignment of variables of arbitrary weights derived from �judg- ment based on experience and the librarian�s own knowledge of his [or her] own library.�6, 7 Such variables tend to drive the formula toward nonstatistically sup- ported results rather than support an ac- curate representation of actual usage of monographs by subject.

Gener­ alizations and conclusions from the work of colleagues in the social sciences frequently be­ come the basis for literary stud­ ies, in which is presented evi­ dence from literary works (or anything else designated as “a text”) to ex­ tend their validity and expand or qualify their insights, especially when those in­ sights concern power.

     summary: In 1983, John N. DePew expressed his views on problems gener­ ated by faculty status for librarians: Faculty status is inappropriate for li­ brarians because it creates tensions that obscure the proper role of the li­ brarian, and it interferes with the ef­ fective delivery of library services by diverting librarians’ energies and at­ tentions from those services.1 The Debate Continues The ACRL Academic Status Committee has been quite active in strengthening the con­ cept and practice of granting/maintaining academic status for librarians. Notwithstanding the tremendous growing pressures on academic librarians to meet higher expectations of users, it is my opin­ ion that most librarians with faculty status still firmly believe in the virtues associated with this standing.

Start­ ing with small groups probably had been helpful in the creation of successful learn­ ing climates, in which individuals were able to build a trust and comfort level with each other, allowing them to talk to each other and admit what they did not know and felt the need to learn.

     summary: In the case of the advancement of diver­ sity in LIS education, this author prefers to see the glass as being half full, which is to say that more people who represent a variety of racial, ethnic, and cultural backgrounds are enrolled in LIS programs and employed in the LIS professions to­ day than in the past. This article discusses is­ sues of diversity in LIS education programs and how these efforts can be addressed positively to better serve students and their future users.

     summary: Major moves are stressful, aggravating, and physically ex­ hausting, but they present the library with a team-building opportunity that is un­ matched by any other project because every employee—regardless of rank—is affected and can be involved. Because I have been involved in several moves at two other institutions, and because this par­ ticular move has dominated my recent work life, I was keenly interested in re­ viewing Elizabeth Habich’s book.

     summary: The commercialization of educational services once regarded as the intellectual property of their creators, but now coming to be regarded as “works made for hire,” and similar changes in the making are reshaping the nature of higher education. Most readers of College & Research Librar­ ies are keenly aware of the impact of changes in the global infosphere on our own institutions.

     summary: Observing that reference collections are the gateway to the rest of the library, Nolan holds that reference collections should contain sources that are reference-formatted, fre­ quently used, authoritative, current, and unique in coverage. He urges librarians to implement collection development policies for reference collections and of­ fers practical advice on the elements of such a policy.

     summary: The tension between practitioners and educators has been in­ tensifying over the past few years as many LIS schools have undergone change, usually in response to pressure from their parent institutions; and it is be­ ing exacerbated by the lack of effective means of communication.

     summary: Similarly, graduate students in the physical sciences must achieve a high degree of information literacy to success­ fully complete the rigorous requirements of their degree programs and subse­ quently become competitive in the world market. Information- literate persons are prepared for lifelong learning because they are able to locate the information required for any en­ deavor or decision that confronts them.2 The goal of the study was to provide suggestions for programs and services that would maximize the information-seeking ability of graduate students in the physical sciences.

     summary: Criteria Used to Determine the Merit of Technology- based Projects The survey asked respon­ dents to indicate which in a group of seven criteria for de­ termining the merits of tech­ nology-based projects for pro­ motion and/or tenure were CURRENTLY being used in their library. �. � . Regarding Credibility of Technology- based Projects Respondents were almost split evenly over whether they felt that technology- based projects deserved more credibility in the promotion and/or tenure process than they may currently have at their in­ stitutions: 49% answered “Yes,” while 51% said “No” (n=63).

     summary: Keyword Search Engines Online helpers like keyword search en­ gines such as Altavista (http:// www.altavista.com) are little more than word-spewing spiders that crawl through Web sites weighing the content according to numerical rather than logical measure­ ments. Although these types of indexes come closer to this goal than keyword search engines and hierarchical subject headings, the nature of Web sites themselves presents the greatest barrier to access.

     summary: There is a fine account of Jane Maud Campbell’s (1869–1947) career as an ad­ vocate for “the downtrodden,” and a nicely objective discussion of the publi­ cation efforts of John Foster Carr (1869– 1939), who, although not a librarian, had a distinct impact on library work with immigrants. The inter­ action between American public libraries and immigrant communities is, of course, not new; and some of its history may be found in Plummer Alston Jones Jr.’s thoughtful, well-documented new vol­ ume.

     summary: Like most authors writing about sci­ ence in the past forty years, Moran fre­ quently invokes Thomas Kuhn, usually (in Moran’s repeated phrase) with reference to “paradigm-busting” opinions and their suppression. In trying to situate his case among oth­ ers, Moran relies on a mix of personal communication, newspaper and schol­ arly articles, and books.

     summary: Access to electronic information is now so ubiquitous in higher education that this past summer an officer of a regional accreditation association sent a letter to academic library directors in his region posing this question: Is a li­ brary an absolute prerequi­ site for a degree-granting institution of higher education, or is it, instead, an in­ dicator of some increasing level of qual­ ity above an accepted minimum? Within the past few months, I have had several commu­ nications with academic library directors whose presidents or deans seek to remove or reduce elements of faculty status for the librarians.

     summary: However, the most impor­ tant determinant of an effective Web site is that it should have a clear mission and a clear sense of its users and their needs.4 In his article on the mission and func­ tion of library Web sites, Mark Stover fo­ cused on the mission and function of li­ brary Web Sites as they relate to the mis­ sion of the organization and the function or role of the librarian. This study focused on library Web sites of public-supported colleges and univer­ sities in the Southeast; a similar study conducted on all types of HBCUs nation­ wide may be necessary to determine any differences in their performance.

Brooks, who conducted an analysis of the literature in superconductivity through fifteen years of INSPEC files to identify the core jour­ nals in that field.2 Chun Wei Choo noted that the success­ ful development of information systems requires coordination among domain ex­ perts, information technology experts, and information experts; this could be applied to digital library development as well.3 In a 1997 paper, Lisa Dallape Matson and David J. Bonski stressed the importance of communication between library and computer specialists working on digital library development.4 he number of journal articles published on the topic of digi­ tal libraries has proliferated in the past several years.

Or put it this way, should a reference librarian give a skinhead a freely available manual for bomb making, or should such information be freely available on a skinhead Web site? One common way to deal with these problems is to adopt acceptable use poli­ cies.

As this volume indicates, the benefits in applying print cultural studies to the analysis of America’s cultural diversity have yet to be exhausted.

     summary: Many academic libraries even offer users a predictable culture. 253 McDonald’s predictably features a bright, cheerful, fun, carnival-like atmosphere symbolized by the clown figure Ronald McDonald and, more recently, specialized play areas with rides, slides, and chutes designed to attract families with children, many academic libraries have a predict­ able ambiance.

     summary: Although much library history consists of journeyman spadework that only an aficionado could really love, D.W. Krummel has come on the scene to look over the entire valley, indicate the gen­ eral pattern of succession among the spe­ cies, pause occasionally to describe curi­ osities, and encourage the visitor to ex­ plore on her or his own. May 2000 The chief virtue of this engaging and in­ formative overview of library history is brevity; if the old adage is right, this es­ say contains much wit and perhaps some useful wisdom.

     summary: In the wake of Derridan deconstructionism and especially Gérard Genette’s discov­ ery of “paratexts” (e.g. titles, dust-jacket blurbs, etc.), humanists, too, are seizing with new vigor upon the physicality of books, their various nontextual qualities that serve as coconstituents of meaning in “the complex mediation between book, author, publisher, and reader.” Watt’s device, which was to have many imitators, relied on the simple principle of offset, the same principle that led Alois Senefelder in 1796 to invent offset lithog­ raphy, the printing method that produces virtually all modern newspapers, books, and other mass ink-printed publications.

     summary: All of this discourse, from opposite ends of the cultural spectrum, amounts to a late vindication for the “materialists” of book culture, those book historians and artifactualists who have raised a moun­ tain of scholarship to explain how and why books have become precisely what they are today, and to provide students of the book and of book history with the means to describe exactly what they en­ counter when a book is carefully, “ana­ lytically” examined. In the wake of Derridan deconstructionism and especially Gérard Genette’s discov­ ery of “paratexts” (e.g. titles, dust-jacket blurbs, etc.), humanists, too, are seizing with new vigor upon the physicality of books, their various nontextual qualities that serve as coconstituents of meaning in “the complex mediation between book, author, publisher, and reader.”

     summary: Rather than add more layers of experimental services that deplete resources and increase com­ plexity, information service should be reconceived to include new partners in support of the use of technology while undertaking substantially new approaches to on-site and network-based information service. The next generation of academic refer­ ence service must, in fact, broaden and deepen its presence in the network by re­ conceiving the parameters and nature of information service.

     summary: University evaluation committees may come to the table assum­ ing that issues of library resource access or integration would not be revealing as comparative or evaluative criteria. Some of the evalua­ tions were articles or presentation papers by individual reviewers, some were com­ mittee or task force reports, some were raw spreadsheets or checklists correlat­ ing criteria and vendors, and a few were combinations of the above.23–26 Only three of the thirty-two evaluations made any mention whatsoever of access to or inte­ gration of library resources as criteria for selection.27, 28 For at least the initial wave of ALN implementation, this would seem to suggest that the reductionist viewpoint has prevailed and that to a certain extent libraries have been marginalized.

The principal problem with the book is its apparent lack of familiarity with the formidable body of secondary literature on the book in early America that could have given Williams’s doctoral disserta­ tion perspective, context, and an argu­ ment.

     summary: James L. Terry’s study of authorship in C&RL reveals the notable increase in collaborative articles (see table 1).18 A more comprehensive study by Anne C. Weller, Julie M. Hurd, and Stephen E. Wiberley Jr. found that 45 percent of articles by U.S. academic librarians and deans in thirty-two peer-reviewed journals between 1993 and 1997 had two or more authors.19 Collaboration and Publication Acceptance Because journals are publishing increasing numbers of collaborative articles, these articles have a greater chance of being ac­ cepted for publication. This is less of an increase in collaborative articles than Terry’s article found, but the dis­ crepancy results from the definition of article used for this study.

Although longer than the Oxford Dictionary of Art (BF90; new ed. 1997), which this work most resembles, the Penguin Concise Dictionary of Art History has fewer entries and lacks the chronological, thematic, and institu­ tional appendixes of that volume.

     summary: Transition is a key concept in their ap­ proach and may serve to ease the anxi­ eties of those educators who wonder where distance learning fits in with what they already do, how it impacts them, and how (or whether) to get started. In addition to useful ideas for course design and media selection, the book alerts read­ ers to important questions to ask about an organization’s capacity for, and level of commitment to, distance learning.

     summary: Rare book catalogers and special collections curators can benefit greatly from cooperating on matters concerning cataloging policy and practice. Lastly, they may wish to add terms to a cataloging record that formerly were included in special card files for top­ ics such as paper, type, binding, printing and publishing, and provenance.17 However, all of this work toward pro­ viding a comprehensive, accurate set of cataloging records will be for naught if the local system cannot adequately display all the information packed into the records.

     summary: It would appear that plagiarism is cur­ rently something of a growth industry; as access to electronic databases, convention-flaunting ‘zines on the Web, and academic writing centers have been added to older opportunities such as “term paper mills,” fraternity houses’ caches of previously submitted papers, and “research assistance” providers. Librarians must begin to deliver added value, rethink our access tools, develop intelligent databases, and redesign our organizations.

     summary: Second, even assuming that the selection of resources for inclusion in the indexes introduced error, the nature of the one-year increase in electronic resource usage is so large (137.2% increase) that even a signifi­ cant reduction would not erase the obvi­ ous advantage of electronic over print. The rapid growth in electronic usage gives a clear indication that patrons at the Cushing/Whitney Medical Library are eager to use textbooks and journals in electronic formats.

     summary: As indicated in other studies of student library research skills, the UC-Berkeley experience confirms that students continue to be con­ fused by the elementary conventions for organizing and accessing information. Previ­ ously, Lawrence J. McCrank had observed that “sometimes the term is used as a re­ placement term for older terms that have simply become passe, like library skills, library use, or bibliographic instruction … at other times usage implies that this new concept embraces all others as an expan­ sion … the idea is becoming all encompass­ ing as it matures.”3

     summary: In looking at economic growth in three distinct periods beginning in 1948 and ending in about 1998, a nice, round fifty-year period, analysts have noted that investments in information technology and productivity appear to be related in­ versely and not directly, as we might ex­ pect. Similarly, the great investment in information technologies has not made libraries any less hierarchi­ cal or less centralized.

     summary: In some­ thing of a perverted Wisconsin Plan, the authors of these papers move further in the direction of “corporate specific” with the argument that the eroding support of public higher education, coupled with the willingness of corporations to pay well for education and training directed to­ ward their own concerns, represents a sig­ nificant opportunity for public universi­ ties to realize a social mandate and to en­ sure financial security. Financing, espe­ cially, seems to be a point on which the contributors agree—it is the major growth sector in higher education and a potential source of wealth for institutions capable of directing their efforts to take advantage of an evolving market.

     summary: Identifying the Government Information Needs of Small Businesses The increased use of the Internet by the government for publishing and dissemi­ nating government information presents challenges as well as opportunities for small businesses. The library administration allocated time for program design and training and pro­ vided electronic classrooms and other fa­ cilities.10 Prograg Goals Based on the findings of the 1997 survey, the authors set up the following goals for the training program: (1) to increase awareness that the U.S. government pub­ lishes valuable information on the Internet by introducing the attendees to a variety of Internet government informa­ tion sources; (2) to encourage and enable small business users to use government- published information on the Internet by teaching them basic search skills and fa­ miliarizing them with various formats of the Internet government publications; (3) to increase their awareness of the types of assistance available to small business http:cilities.10 168 College & Research Libraries March 2001 users (i.e., depository libraries in the com­ munity and librarians’ expertise) so as to increase government information use and enhance the academic libraries’ relation­ ship with the small business community.

Under legislation signed by Presi­ dent Ulysses S. Grant in 1870, the Library of Congress became the sole depository for copyrighted works, a role previously shared with the Smithsonian.

     summary: Although they retain the tra­ ditional features of print narratives (goal-seeking, conflict and uncertainty, and the anticipation of outcomes), they require more scripting, more writing, more dialogue, more work—all in order to free the reader to explore possibilities as they cannot in print. The “Interactive Narrative Timeline” prefacing the text challenged me in a different way: Did I agree with Dou­ glas that Laurence Sterne’s Tristram Shandy (1759), Joyce’s Ulysses (1914), and Ford Madox Ford’s The Good Soldier (1915) were interactive narratives in the same family as Michael Joyce’s afternoon (1990) and Geoff Ryman’s 253 (1996)?

     summary: There is also a presumption that electronic access will mean added value to library patrons, but it begs the question if the access is at a cost patrons are unwilling to pay.11 Indeed, academic librarians and pa­ trons must carefully weigh the benefit versus the cost of electronic resources. Because digitiza­ tion and electronic access is relatively new, it is often seen to be “better” than traditional formats such as newspapers or books.

     summary: The article concludes with a description of an analytical tool that may be used to assess journal prices. Economic Theory and Model To analyze the effects of electronic avail­ ability on journal price, a straightforward model was established that applied ordi­ nary least squares (OLS) regression on cross-sectional data similar to analyses reported by others.3 Earlier models typi­ cally regressed price on a number of vari­ ables to distinguish the statistical rel­ evance of publisher type in determining price.4 Not only do these studies confirm librarians’ belief that certain publishers practice price discrimination, but they also show that periodical prices are driven by other factors, as well.

     summary: Thomas W. Shaughnessy and Sa­ rah M. Pritchard have provided overviews of benchmarking in libraries.8, 9 Recently, several reports of benchmarking studies in academic libraries have been published that look at service measurements such as wait times and Web site usage.10–12 Suzanne H. Angel and Leslie G. Mackler described a benchmarking survey of hospital libraries that examined a range of library services, including reference performance.13 How­ ever, the libraries that Angel and Mackler studied did not use a standardized means of determining patron satisfaction, so it is unclear how comparable their results were.

The major purpose of his book is to provide a rationale and a methodol­ ogy for taking the demands of individual LIS markets (determined primarily by the surveying of library managers) and us­ ing them to shape LIS curricula, both in graduate and undergraduate programs.

     summary: In their analysis on staffing cost, Susan L. Tsui and Carol F. Hinders con­ cluded that the cost for the total manual exporting authority records from OCLC, for staff time of reviewing and loading appropriate authority records, and for manual review of the existing authority records is more than having a vendor ser­ vice that “provides automatic machine correction of bibliographic records and supplies authority records with their re­ vised forms, leaving the library only the complicated database maintenance of its manual review and correction. The presence of the large number of authority records: When the library con­ tracted an authority control vendor to re­ view and update headings for all biblio­ graphic records in November 1999, the vendor also provided the library with 650,000 authority records.

     summary: It discusses the problems and issues of comparing use data from different vendors. In the management literature in 1954, J. M. Juran discussed the phenomenon by which a small percentage of elements (the vital few) accounted for a large portion of an effect.16 Juran’s Vital Few principle was introduced to the library literature by Richard L. Trueswell in 1969, who demonstrated that often 80 percent of library use is satisfied by 20 percent of materials.17

Not every discipline re­ quires the same circles, nor is the con­ sumer of information products forced to follow each step in the journey to the in­ formation needed.

     summary: To give just one ex­ ample (which may surprise librarians), Bowers attacks computer culture as ex­ clusively visual and based on writing, traits that are also shared by books. Without completely denying the use­ fulness of computing for certain purposes, Bowers argues that computers threaten to dominate the entire world, imposing a monoculture on the planet and driving out traditional cultures that live more spiritually and harmoniously within the natural environment.

     summary: One of the objections to unobtrusive testing has been that in most libraries fac­ tual questions make up a relatively small percentage of all reference inquiries, and therefore poor performance in answering such questions, though lamentable, can­ not be taken as an adequate assessment of overall reference service. Budget cuts, overworked library personnel, and other constraints are cited sympathetically, but Dilevko is persuasive in his contention that none of these factors will be accept­ able to a populace with new information service options that hold the promise of delivering superior accuracy.

He describes how new books would be selected for publication with popular ones often subsidizing short-runs of the more esoteric, and so long as the firm was in the black financially, nobody worried if it took twenty years to sell only 1,500 copies of a worthy title.

     summary: He must do this not only to be able to serve his constituents, but also to func­ tion as an accepted member of the pro­ fessional and managerial staff of a mod­ ern organization.5 Lewis-Guodo Liu pointed out that the emer gence of Internet resources and services in busi­ ness has created a new responsibility for business librarians: “Business librarians have to identify, select, evaluate, and or­ ganize business information on the November 2001 Internet to meet the information needs of their local patrons. These results suggest that traditional education and training for business librarians are less than ad­ equate.

     summary: At first reading, academic librarians may see much to praise in Brown and Duguid’s reminder of the undeniable place of librarians—and others—in ensuring broader information availability. This article grew out of a presentation by the author to a March 15–16, 2001, conference on knowledge management for academic librarians sponsored by Do­ minican University’s Center for Knowledge Management.

     summary: Clapp, Baker re­ lates, helped broadcast William Barrow’s theory of paper durability (the fold test of bent corners, giving the book its title). As such, the irony is immense: Baker sees the library world and its “assault on paper” similarly to the microfilm he detests so much.

     summary: With the passing of the Digital Millen­ nium Copyright Act and the increased interest in Internet copyright—and in Vir­ ginia and Maryland, with the passage of UCITA (Uniform Computer Information Transaction Act)—an increasing number of people, including many librarians, are trying to sift through the complexities of copyright law. The first half of Digital Copyright in­ cludes rather detailed descriptions of how copyright law has been created, shaped, and reshaped over the last century.

By examining the inter­ section of IT, power, people, and bodies, West demonstrates how new modes of surveillance and control in society and over human bodies are created by IT as it becomes more efficient, productive, and profitable.

     summary: The digerati is divided into three classes: first are the A-list digerati consisting of the ex­ ecutive management of IT companies, venture capitalists, and majority stock­ holders who fund the companies; second are the academic researchers and devel­ opers, engineers, and programmers who have special IT knowledge to design, pro­ duce, and develop IT; and third are the vice presidents, directors, and senior sales and marketing personnel who require enough IT knowledge to market and sell products. By examining the inter­ section of IT, power, people, and bodies, West demonstrates how new modes of surveillance and control in society and over human bodies are created by IT as it becomes more efficient, productive, and profitable.

Guided tours have long been a standard in academic libraries.12,13 De- spite their prevalence, the perceived value of guided tours is mixed.

     summary: This vague caution centered on the necessity of preserving electronic documents in a mul- titude of formats, including native formats such as Microsoft Word for contextual in- formation, raster format such as PDF or TIFF for access, the OCR output so that documents will be searchable, a structured format such as SGML or XML for preser- vation purposes, and an ASCII document to serve as a last-ditch method of recover- ing lost data. Impact on the ETD Community When specifying document format re- quirements for ETD programs, institu- tions have to balance ease of production for the student with ease of migration/ retention for the institution.

Mosher, vice provost and di- rector of libraries at the University of Pennsylvania, characterized the position of university library director as one that has gone through various stages of change: “the ‘keeper ’, evolving to the ‘professor-librarian’”

     summary: Thus, as Garber points out, “to resist jargon is to protest against profes- sionalism, professionalization, profes- sions—and, not incidentally, professors.” Garber leaves us with three general types of distinctions, corresponding roughly to the material covered in each of the three chapters: the amateurs ver- sus the professionals; the disciplines ver- sus neighboring disciplines, or fields of study in relation to other fields; and fi- nally the kind of inclusive versus exclu- sive uses of language that we most readily associate with occupational groups jeal- ously guarding the territories they lay claim to, sometimes with legal support and sometimes with next to nothing to restrain the competitive edge. Professor Garber quite rightly points out that the love of the amateur must somehow be preserved if scholar- ship is to retain any fresh appeal for us or for anyone else.

Twenty-seven percent of the schools surveyed had music libraries in the main library on campus, and 29 percent had other locations or combinations of locations.

     summary: Although the words themselves do not appear to be perceived as a problem for library administrators, how the words are used is definitely an issue for the admin- istrators who gave an example that would illustrate their answer to either the sur- vey question about the nature of techno- logical discussions in their library or the question about their perceived level of alienation from the technological deci- sion-making process. As might be expected, IT profes- sionals seldom or never felt alienated from the technological decision-making process in their libraries because of ter- minology and, to a great extent, neither do other library administrators.

     summary: Sylvia Huot uses the poetic compila- tions of fourteenth-century poet Watriquet de Couvin to explore the ways in which books are used as metaphors for the self, a self awaiting reading and ex- amination. Lisa Jardine’s brief contribution on book purchasing by the Medici family argues that the Medicis bought books not just for their content, but also in order to “construct a lasting family reputation.”

     summary: Raven’s study of book exports to North America between 1750 and 1820 shows that books published in London continued to be the main source of reading material through the mid-nineteenth century. His essay shows how immigrants (and the children of immi- grants) created imagined communities with their homeland by importing books and newspapers into their new country, with the result that Scottish nationalism was alive and well from Edinburgh to Halifax to Detroit.

     summary: Four appendices outline methodology, sources for further investigation, and, interestingly, reprints of decision tools for evaluating the appli- cability of expert systems for particular tasks. In this arena, “conventional interface technol- ogy, which may be developed far more cheaply than expert system,” can outper- form the intelligent tools.

     summary: Indeed, it is questionable that there were enough problems in the process to raise questions of its legitimacy, its pervasiveness, or its ultimate impact in the scholarly commu- nity prior to the expansion of research, of the number of research journals, and of the general level of interest in the equity of access to publishing outlets prior to the 1960s. In addition to the understanding of the process of scientific refereeing, Weller’s frequently perceptive critiques of existing research and suggestions for fur- ther research, particularly in her conclud- ing chapter, may fuel and inspire research in the area.

     summary: There are few intellectual opportunities in professional organizations serving aca- demic/research librarianship to make a contribution; serving as C&RL editor is certainly one of them. David Kaser, former C&RL editor, noted that the editor has the advantage of reading and learning from all of the manuscripts received by C&RL.

The body of literature that focuses on community college collections is lim- ited.

     summary: In 1984, William Miller cited in- struction as one of the significant new additions to the roster of reference librar- ian duties and a cause of consternation.9 Audrey D. Moore’s 1996 article described library instruction as one of three endur- ing reference service categories, the other two being informational services and reader ’s advisory services.10 In the early 1990s, librarians debated how reference services ought to incorpo- rate instruction. Such courses vary dramatically from institution to institution, and for the purposes of this particular survey, including them as part of library instruction would not render comparable results.14 Library tours are considered part of library instruction and counted toward the yearly number of classes.

Day, a professor in the Library and Informa- tion Science Program at Wayne State Uni- versity, has written in The Modern Inven- tion of Information, a cogent analysis of information in a society that takes the very word itself for granted.

The power of information technology to penetrate, stupefy, de-fuse the human mind, and wreak havoc on information infrastructures is akin to the power of ra- dioactivity to penetrate matter—to de- stroy, mutate, and contaminate for cen- turies.

     summary: If the director ’s po- sition itself lacks stability, then there is a great potential for the entire staff to respond negatively and for the organization’s services to suffer.13 Donald E. Riggs and Gordon A. Sabine’s 1988 study of twenty-five library leaders (academic library directors were included, but not exclusively) provided insight into their self-identified leader- ship characteristics, how they would sug- gest a newcomer become a leader, and what leadership attributes they predict would be needed in 1998. Academic library directors added forty- eight additional job-related challenges whereas the chief academic officers added twenty-four.

Background Articles regarding accounting, costs, and cost models within a library setting from a variety of perspectives have been writ- ten about the usefulness of managerial accounting in libraries, modeling specific to the information science field, and cost studies and methods related to online bib- liographic searching and evaluating in- formation retrieval systems.9–12 With re- spect to cost models, two particular articles should be mentioned: a cost model developed to estimate the costs of options associated with acquiring peri- odicals within libraries, and a cost model developed to assess the feasibility of stor- age and weeding programs within aca- demic libraries and to provide informa- tion for planning and budgeting of such programs when they are shown to be fea- sible.13,14 Digital library researchers Arturo Crespo and Hector Garcia-Molina have written about costs as they relate to the design of an archival repository.15,16

     summary: The report provided a library cost trend analysis and showed that library cost per capita and circulation unit cost decreased as public library size increased, indicating econo- mies of scale, but also pointed out that savings were not expected to be substan- tial.9 To be able to provide more accurate es- timates for library costs and economies of scale, this study took into account the multiproduct and multiservice nature of academic research libraries.

     summary: Another said, “The issue of branch library home pages is a sticky one here, too. The Web sites contain too much in- formation, poorly placed.14 No published articles were found that specifically address the issue of what Web site is shown as a default screen to patrons in branch libraries, but Karen Diaz summa- rized the dichotomy: “In a Webbed world, duplication of effort is not only wasteful, it is confusing to users.

     summary: This study examined the ownership of religious texts within academic libraries that were members of the Associated College Libraries of Cen- tral Pennsylvania (ACLCP). Due to the growing religious diversity of the students, faculty, staff, and community users of these libraries, ownership of religious texts has become more important in order to serve these individuals more fully.

     summary: The classical and jazz entries are arranged in chronological/ stylistic groupings, whereas popular entries are organized under four genres: Country, Pop, R & B/Rap, and Rock. The arrangement is similar, however, organizing entry titles under major themes for Geography and History; Mesoamerican Studies; Written and Oral Sources; Economy and Subsistence; Social, Political, and Religious Organization; Cul- tural Interaction and Social Change; Cosmovision and Ritual Performance; Cre- ative Expressions and Materials Forms; Sites, Cities, and Ceremonial Centers; and, like the other title, they conclude with bi- ographies, although there are many more here and they include historical figures, artists, and photographers, as well as an- thropologists, archaeologists, and other scholars.

     summary: His real concern is with linguistic errors, which he understands as cataloging errors that result from an inadequate understanding of the language in which the work is writ- ten, and intellectual errors, which he un- derstands as errors (usually of subject analy- sis and classification) that occur because of a lack of subject knowledge on the part of the cataloger. And in a time of diminishing budgets, library admin- istrators will not be overwhelmed with the creativity of a suggestion to solve the qual- ity control problem in cataloging by hiring more catalogers, or even paying highly qualified nonprofessional staff more money to do specialized cataloging work.

     summary: Like other books in this series, Illumi- nating Letters will appeal to students of the history of books and the material text and to scholars of art history and literature. Typography is primarily a visual art; and perhaps if li- brarians attended to traditional uses of ty- pography in printed books, they might learn more from the objects that surround them in their daily work and even learn to apply that learning to the way readers in- teract with words, both in print and online.—Cecile M. Jagodzinski, Indiana Uni- versity.

     summary: Although the results of the studies were not entirely unexpected (for example, in the case of children’s librar- ians, interest in the content of the specialty and working with children were primary factors in the decision to adopt the spe- cialty), they point the way to a means for identifying the kinds of individuals who should be approached and persuaded to seek careers as library leaders. According to Glogoff, rather than being driven by tech- nology, library leaders can be the drivers if they use organizational structures that invite new ideas and promote adaptability.

Borghuis for Elsevier ’s Science Direct rec- ommended that multiple requests for the same page should not be counted if they occur within a ten-second interval and that this time interval should be extended to sixty-five seconds for pdf files.20 Among librarians who work with pub- lisher data, there is a general skepticism of the accuracy of e-journal use data. Skew in Title Use The variation in title use is heavily skewed, as illustrated in figure 3.

     summary: However, student research is not just searching for sources. Tacking back and forth between the ACRL Stan- dards and the English 102 objectives, as well as mining their own experiences with student research (including their own college research experiences), the authors drafted a matrix-style rubric that divided each of these categories, which they called Relevance, Credibility, and Engagement, into three qualities they hoped to see in successful papers and as- signed a numerical value to each of four degrees of success they thought it would be possible to identify.

     summary: In those situations where nonranked journal ABC is cited by an- other nonranked journal, a value of zero (0) should be assigned to the nonranked journal that cites nonranked journal ABC, and proceed as above. Nevertheless, if an academic library wishes to evaluate a nonranked journal that typically publishes many review ar- ticles, it would be appropriate to compare review articles in the nonranked journal with review articles in the comparator ranked journal.

     summary: When libraries did find room for oral materials, it was generally in the form of transcripts rather than tapes; that is, the primary source was enthusiastically eschewed in favor of its simulacrum. Just the same, these essays are impor- tant in reinforcing the apparently not-so- obvious notion that there is a rewarding and symbiotic relationship between libraries and oral materials waiting to happen.

It gives the reader a rare opportunity to view pictures, study plans, and read about a wide vari- ety of academic library types—from the huge complexes at Colorado State Univer- sity and University of Maryland-Baltimore to the almost-petite Science Library at the College of Wooster—all in one volume.

Further, those myriad “challenges” actu- ally and typically arise in fairly rural and remote locales, hardly affecting large numbers of students or library users, and in any event are usually denied, although they do represent opportunities to reex- amine selection decisions and to explain free speech precepts to the challengers.

Neely is correct to argue, for example, both that we know too little about student attitudes toward information literacy instruction and that our instruction programs could be im- proved if we knew more.

     summary: In addition, te Heesen notes that many Enlightenment intellectuals be- lieved that it was the destiny of Europe- ans to bring moral, intellectual, and so- cial order to the world and that their chil- dren must be trained to fulfill that roll. In the final section (Box), te Heesen demonstrates how the box into which children were encouraged to file their pic- tures is far more than a mere curiosity.

     summary: But he concludes on a positive note, “the twenty-first century brings with it the opportunity for new relationships and new forms of collaboration between uni- versity presses, university libraries, and universities themselves.” Essays by Jack Goellner, former direc- tor of the Johns Hopkins University Press, and Hendrilk Edelman, former director of the Rutgers School of Information and Library Science, provide even more his- torical perspective and a look into a fu- ture where, in the words of Professor Edelman, for research libraries “in an- other fifty years, most of these (paper) collections will become special collections with extensive preservation needs and, undoubtedly, much more limited access.

     summary: The key drivers that can be expected to shape the future of academic libraries as they move toward the model of 2013 will be the availability of library resources and the demands on their use, alterations in scholarship and scholarly publishing, and changes within the teaching and learning establishment. The transformational agents that have produced dramatic changes in academic libraries in recent years will continue to influence those librar- ies over the next decade, but it should not be assumed that the aca- demic library of 2013 will represent a natural progression from the li- brary of today.

These findings lead to the conclusion that the instructional method, regardless of the type of instruc- tion, served to increase participants� scores on declarative, syntactic, and semantic knowledge.

This is the most technical section of the book; however, it does an excellent job of de- scribing the substance and nuances of these confusing sections of U.S. code, as well as the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, and a range of legal issues relating to technology, access, and potential legal changes with emerging technologies.

     summary: This explains why a book written by a marketing specialist, which seems for the most part, judging by the numerous iden- tifying references, aimed at people work- ing in this field, on the surface is presented as a work of popular philosophy, as can be seen by a quick scan of the chapter titles: �A New World,� �Space,� �Time,� �Perfec- tion,� �Togetherness,� �Matter,� and �Hope.� Weinberger�s main message seems to have not so much to do with these tradi- tional philosophical concerns as with com- municating the sense of awe and reverence he and many others have for the Internet and the World Wide Web. Why did this technology hit our culture like a bolt from Zeus?� �we�re worried, we�re giddy, we�re confused,� and �The Web has driven through the plate glass window of traditional management.

     summary: To answer this research question, the following survey questions were used as the basis for evaluating student library use behavior: • Survey question 4, “During a se- mester, how often do you visit a library to complete course-related assignments?” • Survey question 5, “When you do visit a library, which library do you visit most often to complete course-related as- signments?” • Survey question 6, “Please rank the quality of library services and materials in the library you visit most often.” Trends in Distant Student Use of Electronic Resources: A Survey 179 Sixty-six percent of respondents re- ported they “seldom” or “never” visited a library versus 32 percent who reported they “frequently” or “often” used a li- brary. The finding that a large percentage of UMUC students use the free Web provides strong evidence that the library’s programs designed to teach students how to be informed con- sumers of information via the free Web is an important part of the library’s instruc- tional program.

Biases Although the authors made every effort to include as much of the collection as possible within the sample, the necessary exclusion of certain collection materials means that some biases exist in the study.

     summary: In an attempt to reduce mis- understanding, Longino distinguishes three meanings of scientific knowledge: (1) knowledge production, the practices and processes that generate knowledge; (2) knowing, a three-way relationship among knowers, representations (e.g., models and theories), and objects (e.g., black holes); and (3) content, the corpus of knowledge that consists of verbal, mathematical, or visual representations. More narrowly, it is an exploration of a matter of considerable moment and dispute in that domain, namely, the role of social relations in the production and content of scientific knowledge.

     summary: These headings are proof positive that Cold War mentalities are alive and well (or maybe just on automatic pilot) at least in the cataloging department of the Library of Congress. For example, in her preface to the book, editor Martine Poulain, in noting the ideological dimen- sions, tensions, and manipulations of the Cold War, writes, “The free world, deci- mated by war, was seeking the rebirth of new ideas and the emergence of freedom of intellect.”

     summary: Today, of course, his vision of research universities as cities unto themselves is the reality in which many of us live and work every day. The author pertinently quotes Jonathan Swift as follows: “The most ac- complished way of using books at present is twofold: either, first, to serve them as men do lords—learn their titles exactly and then brag of their acquaintance; or, secondly, which is, indeed, the choicer, the profounder and politer method, to get a thorough insight into the index, by which the whole book is governed and turned, like fishes by the tail.

These two IFLA reports provide useful information but ask no uncomfortable questions.—An- thony Olden, Thames Valley University. Wagner, Ralph D. A History of the Farmington Plan.

     summary: Around three- quarters of arts and humanities citations were to monographs in both 1991 and 2001, whereas the bulk of science citations in both years were to periodicals (79% in 1991, 64% in 2001). In 2001, Web sites accounted for an amazing six percent of citations in both education and the sciences, whereas this format received only one percent of social science citations and were not cited at all in the arts and humanities theses and dissertations analyzed.

To fully explore this, the following in- vestigative questions and hypotheses were posed: Changing the Face of Instruction 381 • Will students learn from informa- tion literacy instruction? H1: Students will have higher scores in the posttest than in the pretest. Students in the experimental group will report as much or more satis- faction with the learning experience than will students in the control group.

     summary: In the past few years, Michael Gorman has published several books and articles that address the hype about technology and the notion that libraries and librar- ians have no future. The book’s eleven chapters are grouped into four sections: “Libraries and Communi- cations Technology,” “Reading and the Web,” “Library Work and the Future of Libraries,” and “Overcoming Stress and Achieving Harmony.”

     summary: As the concept of wealth moved from precious metals to land and petroleum, and from those to invisible bits and bytes coursing through networks, it has become universally clear that intellectual property is destined to be the gold of the twenty- first century. The introductory chapter clearly illus- trates how the question of ownership of intellectual property goes far beyond the academic realm, where ownership rights to a faculty member’s lectures have tra- ditionally been a key issue.

     summary: Environmental Factors Despite that flurry of building activity, the central importance of library facilities in higher education planning is no longer assured. This study found that respondents’ information use and percep- tions of libraries varied across disciplines, by type of institution, and among stu- dents at various levels of study and fac- ulty.36 A recent OCLC white paper also has addressed student information-seeking behavior.37 Space Planning In addition, there is an ample and grow- ing literature on library facilities and space planning.

Jonassen takes on the challenge of defining various problems for instruction purposes, their structuredness, their rep- resentations, and their complexities.

     summary: Rowing Upstream is the final report on this five-year program, and it attempts to assess the development and availability of African content on the Web, the utilization of and innovation in technology across the continent, growth and support of ICT in African universi- ties, as well as examining the complex web of issues surrounding the work of local agencies, nongovernmental groups, and outside (foreign) donor agencies col- laborating to enhance links within and between African countries as well as to the rest of the world. The chapter on African content on the Web is the most substantial as it initiates a discussion of the definition of “African content” and raises important questions for both African and foreign producers and consumers of that content.

So begin the chapters at the heart of Samek’s book, where she records the debates, actions, and inactions that took place in Washington, Atlantic City, Chi- cago, Detroit, Los Angeles, Dallas, and New York, as ALA conferences became a moveable arena for activists to contest the library’s social role.

     summary: In part two, 278 participants completed a revised questionnaire consisting of a 54-item Likert-type scale that assessed levels of library anxiety experienced by students enrolled in a doctoral degree–granting program at an urban southeastern university. From her research, Mellon developed a theory about library anxiety, which stated, “When confronted with the need to gather information in the library … many students become so anxious that they are unable to approach the problem logically or effectively.”9

     summary: he landmark series of online catalog studies sponsored by the Council of Library Re­ sources (CLR) in the early 1980s established unequivocally that sub­ ject searching was the most popular type of online catalog search and that catalog users experienced the most difficulty with subject searches.1–2 Spurred by the find­ ings of the CLR studies, discussions and research efforts to improve subject search­ ing in online catalogs flourished through­ out the 1980s and early 1990s. Both comparisons reveal that frequen­ cies of all searches (figure 3) as well as no- hits searches (figure 4) across the five types of search indexes were quite similar, thereby suggesting that the sample week was not atypical of searching done over the full year.

     summary: In 2003, the state legislature en­ abled the Arizona Board of Regents to buy stock in a company in the expectation of profit sharing following successful commercial ex­ ploitation of university research. First of all, the saga of big-time athletics reveals that American universities, despite their lofty ideals, are not above sacrific­ ing academic values—even values as basic as admission standards and the integrity of their courses—in order to make money.

     summary: The goal of OhioLINK (and any library) is to provide “economically sustainable in­ creased information access,” but libraries are losing ground each year trying to meet this ideal. Tech­ nology, as it evolves, promises new and unknowable opportunities and possibili­ ties, and current conflicts that cloud our vision (such as library–vendor divisions) will eventually be resolved.

     summary: This collection of essays will cer­ tainly be of interest to future librarians, but seasoned professionals also will find much that is thought provoking.

Smith also looks at digital preservation as practiced by commercial and university publishers, by the government (led by the Library of 88 College & Research Libraries Congress), and also by such public initia­ tives as the Internet Archive, which has been storing snapshots of the entire Web since 1996 and successfully attracting sup­ port from many corporations and private individuals.

     summary: Even with the technological advances of recent years, digital information has not replaced traditional means of publication and information storage but, rather, has added to it and thus strained the resources of national libraries and archives charged with storing and preserving both tradi- tional and digital information. Digital information is distributed differently, with the library holding a license rather than a physical copy.

     summary: The second edition of the International En- cyclopedia of Information and Library Science provides, for the most part, comprehen- sive coverage of issues (e.g., history, policy, library types, library functional areas, cli- ent bases, and library services internation- ally), as well as a range of research areas (e.g., information-seeking behavior). Thus, one concern relates to the fact that the discussion of library history, services and challenges, policies, legislation, and client bases is not always even across con- tinents and countries, with some entries providing greater detail than others.

In “Cartographic Materials as Works,” Scott R. McEathron states: very little has been written by map librarians on the current cataloging mechanisms available for providing descriptive access to works or on thinking of cartographic materials as works.

     summary: Has this decline in language study affected the use of European-language sources by more recent U.S. humanities scholars in their published scholarly work? One example is the recent study by Jennifer Wolfe Thompson, which confirms the dominance of the monograph in citations in literary studies but does not mention language of the citations.8 A good source on citation analysis in general is Robert N. Broadus, who discussed the validity of citation studies and reviewed some relevant ones.9 John Cullars found that in their monographic works, English-speaking scholars of foreign literature cited 20 percent French sources, 10 percent German, 8 percent Italian, 3 percent Latin, and 1 percent Spanish.1 0

     summary: Studying tourism citations from 1994–1996, Richard M. Howey and colleagues found that 77.3 percent of citations in six tourism and hos- pitality journals came from other sources, although they did not define what they meant by “other sources. But, as described above, the universities that employ tourism scholars who frequently publish in tourism research journals own a very large proportion of the core tourism research literature identified in table 4.

     summary: lthough women librarians have long been in the majority at academic libraries, they have recently risen to key leadership positions in the profession.1 At the most prestigious university libraries, the 124 Association of Research Library (ARL) in- stitutions,2 women comprise 52.1 percent of all top administrators and serve as the ma- jority on ARL’s board of directors.3,4 These are impressive gains when one considers that in 1972 women accounted for only 4.6 percent of library directors at these research universities.5 As noted earlier, for all higher education there is an eight percent gap between the salaries of female and male academic library directors, which is in keeping with “an average disparity of eight percent between male and female salaries” in the higher education teaching profession.14 However, these numbers ob- scure the fact that women library directors at the top institutions are generally much be er compensated.

     summary: Promotion and tenure policies for collegiate faculty are spelled out in great detail in the university’s Faculty Handbook, with more limited guidelines provided for the extra-collegiate faculties.3 The handbook explicitly acknowledges that library faculty promotion and continued appointment deliberations are governed by a separate document, Procedures on Promotion and Continued Appointment: University Libraries, developed by the Li- brary Faculty Association (LFA) and the dean of libraries, the revision of which is the focus of this article. (Prior to 1983, library faculty were awarded tenure under the same rules as collegiate faculty.

     summary: Librarians wish to be part of the team in the educational process; however, faculty seem to want librarians to remain within traditional bounds. Librarians in some institutions, such as the Library and Archives of Canada, are se ing up, controlling, and pushing forward electronic information packages to their clients.19 James Wilkinson has seen a role for librarians in filtering the massive amounts of information that faculty must contend with: “Librarians can help direct students and faculty to the most promising sources; they can also help them hone their digital skills on the Internet.

     summary: The wholesale reprinting of earlier entries in the new edition, the lack of a conceptual framework on which to base inclusion of articles, and the general unfocused approach to the field still are major issues that have not been faced by the editors and lead to the suspicion that the projected supplemental material will be a series of random articles rather than an encyclopedia. If separate articles titled “Paper” and “Papyrology” are allowable (with “The Paperless Society” interven- ing), there should be an article on print- ing, which is apparently ignored by the encyclopedia.

     summary: The enormous success of Dickens’s serial fiction on both sides of the Atlantic in the 1840s created a golden age of magazine fiction that lasted until the very end of the century, when economics and immigration changed the editorial practices at major magazines. Professor Okker has given us a small book on a big topic: serial fiction in nine- teenth-century America.

A brief introduction, 450 College & Research Libraries with entry references given in boldface, precedes the dictionary entries, which are followed by a select bibliography ar- ranged in broad subject categories.

Zaid the author managed to convey to this reader his own passion for books—from his de- scription of learning to read and acquiring the ability to combine individual lett ers of the alphabet into the “miracle of the full word,” to the way mature readers can be liberated, transported from reading the page to reading life itself.

     summary: That the quoted faculty members don’t seem aware that many librarians rou- tinely do attend such meetings, for exactly the reasons given (and, in addition, because a goodly number of academic librarians are publishing scholars in academic subjects) is perhaps understandable, if sad. Teaching faculty members were asked four context-setting questions about broad field, specialty within it, faculty rank, and highest degree awarded by respondents’ institutions, along with eleven questions about their experience with reference librarians and suggestions for what the latter might do to improve or maintain subject awareness.

     summary: For humanities librarians who studied lit- erature in the 1970s and 1980s, the essays collected here will transport them back to the exciting debates and discoveries of their apprentice years, the theoretical breakthroughs of Iser, Jauss, Fish, Bleich, and Holland that shattered the classical view of the reader as the dispassionate receptacle of incontrovertible meanings placed in literary works by sagacious authors. This vol- ume is most useful to reference staff who assist library users in the identifi cation of the best journals in a field and to collec- tion development selectors, regardless of whether they are trying to justify the 570 College & Research Libraries purchase of a new title or retention of an existing one.

     summary: The “reading sites” of this book’s title are not libraries but, rather, locations in the imaginary space populated by readers, texts, and authors where, at least in the view of reader-response theories of litera- ture, the meaning of texts is constituted. And second, more relevant perhaps in a library science context, why even review this book here at all, rather than in a journal directed at readers in English departments?

Kay Rase- roka, argues that there is a crucial need to place women in a separate category when analyzing our ability to meet their information and communication needs. This monograph contains papers addressing women librarians’ edu- cation, women’s library and professional career status, women’s literacy, global in- formation needs of women, women’s access to information, information and library resources for women, women’s vocational training, and women’s access to, and use of, communication and information technolo- gies.

     summary: However, only nine percent of SPARC libraries are using faculty pages to present information on scholarly communica- tion and only 10 percent are presenting scholarly communication information on collection management pages. However, it is likely that there has been li le change in the development of scholarly communication pages on library Web sites in the interval between the two studies.

     summary: H. E. Auret viewed the electronic or digital library as a given and speculated on the ability of librarians to contribute effectively in such an environment.18 Other articles have concentrated on the future role of library staff. A new Organizational Efficacy Task Force, which included the newly hired library director plus a more diverse set of library staff, was established to manage the remaining steps in the methodology.

     summary: Geiger puts it best: “The commercial- ization of university research at the dawn of the twenty-first century would seem to possess an inexorable momentum.” What we see in such a development, states Kirp, citing the chancellor of the University of Texas, is a growing privatization of higher education and the consignment of the historic public support of universities to the “junkyard of history.”

     summary: Following is a list of some of the prob- lems encountered thus far and how they relate to each component: • numerous compatibility issues with various types of so ware used from both the writer’s side and the publisher’s side; the rapidly changing nature of com- mercial writing programs whose user- friendly aspects drive author demands, which in turn drive publisher changes, and what about the reader; • the increased need for high-quality images, no longer supplied adequately by traditional ILB means; improvement in electronic production of images and subsequent publication thereof, forcing change in distributors, as libraries try to cope with mechanisms no longer ad- equate for delivery of such; • the need for interactive images; compatibility issues again with means of delivery, affecting writers and publishers and libraries; question of stability, with advancement in programs occurring at inverse relationship to stability and com- patibility over the long haul; • ownership and its associated responsibility of preservation, the radi- cal alteration of roles of publishers and libraries with regard to this, and the ramifications to the connection between writer and reader. So a library negotiates borrow- ing arrangements with other libraries, in- stitutions, or document delivery services to provide these documents, sometimes for free and o en at a cost (certainly if the service is a commercial one).

     summary: User-centered research that att empts to balance the social with the technical has had some effect on the development of digital libraries and has the potential to provide even greater understanding. Although all share a commit- ment to the sociotechnical approach, these essays, like the projects that informed them, explore digital libraries from a wide range of perspectives (so wide, in fact, that the editors judiciously chose not to define the term digital library, allowing the multitude of examples in- cluded to provide institutional borders).

     summary: Another inves- tigates how digital libraries designed to serve large groups of users must scale up concepts traditionally seen as individual or psychological, specifically focusing on “transparency,” the idea that you do not have to know the intricacies of how a thing works to use it. This essay explains that as digital libraries seek to meet the needs of larger communities, contentions arise over transparency, but when that larger community accepts the transparency, it becomes “coercive.”

British book buyers may well have customized their bindings, but they did so like Samuel Pepys: after they had bought the volume bound from their local merchant.

     summary: He learned how to describe and price books from mentors who could recall a pertinent detail from some obscure handbook housed in the Nijhoff catalogue-room and who would ask the apprentice if he had thought to consult it. During the intervening half-century, Gerits worked two spells at Nijhoff ’s, a “glorious” firm he saw dismantled by Kluwer; spent several years managing the antiquarian department of the publisher Mouton & Co., whom he represented when in the early 1950s Gerits was among the first booksellers from the West to prospect behind the Iron Curtain; put in a short turn at Ludwig Rosenthal’s Anti- quarian Bookshop, where the “neurotic and egocentric” Hilde Rosenthal-Wolf, who furthered his bibliographical edu- cation while undercutting his success in acquiring incunabula, dispatched him in 1973 to Japan, a country that ever after proved fruitful to Gerits; and passed seven years at Dekker & Nordemann, where he directed the fi rm’s international antiquarian department, a short-lived venture established by parent company Elsevier, “as if a very rich man, out of boredom, was spending his money on something new he did not yet possess, just as these people sometimes buy buildings, paintings, old books, or shares.”

     summary: Gerits tried to bolster his antiquarian business by selling new books to libraries. But he saw librarians drawn to the high discounts larger companies gave, not to his own firm’s “perfect service,” which included leafing through new books to look for defects, faulty bindings, even misprints.

     summary: Through several chapters, he frees us from the misconception around which several of the myths revolve: that media are “naturally commercial and that government has been and is an innocent bystander (or non-productive intruder) in the process of creating media systems.” Because the media almost exclusively report official spin, at which the right is supremely skilled, rather than engage in investigative journalism, the average consumer of news media believes a grotesque perversion of the truth.

     summary: Vaidyanathan has been one important such voice and has done a good deal of public speaking on these topics (including talks at the ALA meet- ings) as well as writing books. But the events of 9/11 and their aftermath refocused his attention on what he describes as “information politics” as opposed to what he calls “entertainment politics,” and indeed the book ranges over topics from copyright to philosophies of anarchism, from the future of nation-states to information warfare, from peer-to-peer technology to some really fascinating discussion of global cultural issues.

     summary: There may be a gender bias in LIS publishing, even though female authors have become more numerous. any bibliometric studies of LIS literature in the past three decades show that the share of female authors is increas- ing.1 In light of the fact that women have outnumbered men in librarianship for almost a century, this is a natural, but belated, development.

     summary: The regres- sion coefficients of the first two variables, “confidence before” reference interaction and “friendliness” of reference staff, added to the model were both significant (p = 0.0289 and p = 0.0114, respectively), explaining a total of 14.56 percent of the variation in “confidence a er” reference interaction. Virginia Massey-Burzio’s focus group study also confirmed the importance of friendliness and approachability.13 Marie L. Radford explored the role approachability plays in successful ref- erence interactions in her 1998 article on nonverbal cues from reference staff and their impact on a library user’s decision to initiate a reference interaction.14 Specifi- cally, she found that the appearance and nonverbal behavior of reference staff and any prior experience with librarians had a major effect on that decision.

     summary: It is, perhaps, to be lamented that among these disciplines, none has corrected what has become a grating point in any discussion of the history of writing: clay tablets were not “baked.” Clay tablets were vitrified by a process that is normally called firing, where the clay is subjected to temperatures high enough to change the crystalline structure of the clay body itself.

     summary: Over the past decade, patient demand has fostered the creation of several databases, regular media segments, and countless Web sites designed specifically to impart health information to consumers of health care services. This is followed by a review of research on the correlation between knowledge of health information and actual health behavior and of health information needs and various media through which people receive health information.

     summary: This collection of essays describes information technology (IT) policy issues in the United States, highlighting the ways federal policy has responded to IT developments. Not only are these examples of important trends in the social use of information and communications tech- nologies that connect well to both Freud’s concern for the human condition and Rawls’s theory on social justice, they are likely to be among the more contentious challenges to federal telecommunications and information policy.

     summary: Predictably, the highest percentage of journal citations was in the sciences (58.8%) and second highest in the social sciences (46.2%), whereas journal citation use in the hu- manities was low at 12.6 percent. Further, citation checking of research documents and comparison of those citations with the availability of materials in a local collection offers an unobtrusive and cost-effective method of evaluating that collection’s ability to support research.2,3 As Smith’s and Robert N. Broadus’s literature reviews noted, citation check- ing is a time-honored and well-studied method for determining the usefulness of collections.4,5 It is part of a broad category known as citation studies, defined by Paul H. Mosher as “any specific methodologies that use source citations or references drawn from the scholarly apparatus of articles and books as the basis for manipu- lation, research, and study.

     summary: Paris has a unique power to legislate on literary matters and acts as a Greenwich Meridian of literary time in defining what is modern through the writings of its avant-garde. Its interest for research and academic librarians probably would have been greater if, instead of thinking about the ways in which politics and economics can supply us with metaphors for think- ing about rivalries in the world of letters, more attention had been devoted to the actual mechanics of book fi nancing, print- ing, and distribution (e.g., the difficulties faced by writers from countries without a developed publishing industry in finding an overseas publisher) and their eff ect on literary production.—David Mulrooney, Harvard University.

On the one hand, the author focuses on theory development and research done by teaching faculty and, on the other, on the downside of the higher education paradigm that fosters research and theory development, which lacks direct applicability to practice.

     summary: This study assesses the extent to which ARL academic libraries collect science fiction novels. A novel was considered “owned” by a library as long as any printing or edition was listed as owned, on order, or even missing, because the intent was simply to see if science fiction novels were being selected.

     summary: Because members of one of our major resource- sharing partners, the other CIC libraries, did not generally lend AV material at the time of the study, CIC ILL staff spent more time trying to locate potential suppliers to fill patrons’ AV requests than they spent on requests for other material types. All CIC libraries use OCLC for process- ing ILL requests among CIC libraries.

     summary: A number of surveys speak to this question and have addressed the following topics: • Satisfaction with faculty status, based on type of institution, academic rank, promotion history, primary area of responsibility, years of experience, tenure status, and gender; • Differences with regard to library governance structure; • Differences in eligibility for mem- bership in the faculty governing body; • Effects on salary scales; • Differences in promotion policies; • Differences in obtaining leaves of absence or sabbaticals; • Differences in funding opportuni- ties for research projects; • Differences in academic freedom; • Examined library faculty participa- tion in governance.37 As a result of the developments re- garding tenure for library faculty at UNC Charlo e, two members of the library faculty did a literature review to try to de- termine if faculty status and tenure made a difference in librarians’ professional lives. The 168 College & Research Libraries March 2006 interim provost was instituting a new status for library faculty under Special Faculty Appointments, as provided for in the university’s tenure policy.

     summary: As with the proportion of ar- ticles by academic authors, time will tell whether the decline in coauthorship be- tween the present study and the authors’ previous study marks the start of a down- ward trend or is a temporary drop. Com- pared to the authors’ study of thirty-two journals for 1993–1997, the pres- ent study finds that for 1998–2002, there were declines in the total number of refereed articles (almost 4%), number of refereed articles by academic librarians (almost 13%), proportion of refereed articles by academic librar- ians (just over 4%), proportion of academic librarian authors (almost 3%), and proportion of coauthored articles by academic librarians (almost 4%).

For example, one study shows that business leaders rank EI traits as more important than traditional leadership traits for the successful leader to posses.21 Of par- ticular importance are developing a shared vision, relationship building, employee development, adaptability, optimism, empathy, and self-awareness.

     summary: Academic librarians generally publish more than librarians working in other sett ings; on average, academic librarians write at least one solo-authored, peer-reviewed journal article that is typically published in the library literature. Some academic institutions 278 College & Research Libraries give academic status to librarians that “recognizes librarians as professional staff but does not confer the rights and privileges of faculty.”

     summary: Of the making of Web sites, there appears to be no end. She has packaged her conspectus in six categories, each of which includes a generous harvest of digital resources: subject gateways; author studies (including digital editing projects); electronic books (facsimile, encoded, and born digital); reference sources and primary text collections (chiefly commercial); subject and genre collections (e.g., poetry); and teaching applications.

     summary: It will come as no surprise that some of the alternative models for scholarly work defined by Boyer (e.g., the scholarship of teaching) have made greater inroads into campus culture than others (e.g., the scholarship of integra- tion), and the final chapters in part one of this collection focus on issues related to implementing Boyer’s ideas through both national programs (e.g., Preparing Future Faculty) and local efforts. Although studies of these “multiple forms of schol- arship” were sponsored throughout the past decade by organizations such as the American Association for Higher Educa- tion (AAHE) and the Carnegie Founda- tion for the Advancement of Teaching, and although a number of monographs have focused on how to evaluate distinct dimensions of scholarly activity (e.g., Driscoll and Lynton’s Making Outreach Visible: A Guide to Documenting Professional Service and Outreach [1999]), the literature was still lacking an overview of the impact of reform initiatives, inspired by what is often referred to as “the Boyer Report,” on national discourses on evaluation of faculty performance and on the guide- lines for faculty evaluation developed by individual campuses.

     summary: What makes Mickenberg’s book so welcome is that it investigates, not textbooks, but another group of books produced for children, trade books written by leftist authors who largely escaped the eagle eyes of right- wing censors in mid-twentieth century. The first part of the book, “Progressive and Proletarian Precedents” provides context, including an overview of the early years of children’s book publishing; exami- nation of the demands of librarians, teach- ers, and parents for books appropriate for children; examples of books writt en by leftist authors; discussion of the progres- sive education movement; and description of radical political organizations.

     summary: The examples dealing with these issues are illuminating and convincing, though on different levels: from the University of Kansas with its top-down, formal struc- ture; to the University of Washington, Bothell, where regular teaching meetings between the two units were instituted to facilitate collaboration; to Saint Joseph College, where the two units mutually conducted workshops, held regular meet- ings, and referred students to each other, thus integrating collaboration into regular work procedures for both units; to South- west Missouri State University (recently renamed Missouri State University), which explored collaboration models from different perspectives. A formal structure, a com- mittee consisting of directors from both units and shared strategies in marketing their respective services helped support ongoing collaboration in this case study.

     summary: Certainly, authors of the increasingly popular mystery genre revolving around the oft en baffling ciphers and semiotics of old books and their constituent parts—in the tradition of Eco’s Name of the Rose (1981) and Pérez-Reverte’s Club Dumas (1993), now, of course, Dan Brown’s The Da Vinci Code (2003)—could weave many wonderful tales from the arcana and mi- nutiae Mirjam Foot has brought together in this volume. To stay for a moment with the example at hand: we learn in Foot’s book that sprinkled edges on books were not just decorative, but often helped hide the dirt on the edges; that red and green sprin- kling said “French” to German readers; that sprinkling with red alone suggested 480 College & Research Libraries elegance, but a solid red edge signaled a book that was for peasants.

     summary: In order for information literacy instruction to be suc- cessful in secondary schools, collaboration between content area teachers and SLMSs is imperative,16 but teachers who are not information literate themselves are not likely to see the need to collaborate with SLMSs to incorporate information literacy into student learning. Follow- ing are selected comments identifying frequently cited hindrances, including administrative oversight, pedagogy that is not rooted in inquiry-based learning, lack of information literacy skills among content area teachers, lack of collabora- tion, and staffing or budget shortages.

     summary: Penny Beile and Megan Adams7 and Joan Starr8 also support the prior findings that the demand for computing skills is on the rise across library positions. However, nothing in this study contradicts prior position an- nouncement studies that have established that library positions are increasingly requiring computer, reference, and user instruction skills.

     summary: While this study provides some evi- dence for the current state of library in- struction credit courses, unfortunately the sample of online resumes doesn’t appear to be large enough to support an unquali- fied extrapolation of the results to credit- bearing library instruction courses gen- erally. The author searched for and gathered 100 online syllabi for library skills courses in the months of January, February, and March of 2005.

     summary: knowlton.indd Recruiting Non-MLIS Graduate Students to Academic Librarianship Sean Patrick Knowlton and Becky Imamoto In response to declining numbers of qualified applicants nationwide for librarian positions in academic libraries, the University of Colorado at Boulder Libraries, in collaboration with the University’s Graduate Teacher Program, has developed a fellowship program that encourages gradu- ate students with advanced subject or language expertise to consider careers in academic librarianship. Fewer quali- fied individuals are seeking positions in academic libraries, which has led to shal- lower pools of applicants with advanced subject skills.2

     summary: For each, people were asked which they had used to seek health in- formation, in which they’d come across such information, how useful they’d found information from each category, and how reliable they considered each source. People are trying to sift out meaningful distinc- tions between what information people think they want, what they think they can do to get it, and—not least—what, if anything, they do with it once they obtain it.

     summary: Many libraries could improve access to e-books by providing guidance to the content of e-book packages, by including the word “book” in links from the homepage to the pages that provide e-books, by providing a one-step limit to e-books in the catalog, by explaining which types of resources are available through search structures outside the catalog, and by featuring e-books in library publicity and instruction. Seven of these forty-nine Web sites had two equally obvious pages that contained links to e-books or e-book packages; in such cases, both pages are included in our analysis.

     summary: Summary The academic landscape thus is one in which: • the majority of academic librarians work where they have more than 24 col- leagues; • most librarians at baccalaureate col- leges have about four colleagues (most at master’s institutions have about 14; most FIGURE 9 Instructional Employees to Librarians by Library Size 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 Large Medium Small Public Private http:survey.13 66 College & Research Libraries January 2007 FIGURE 10 Instructional Employees to Librarians by Carnegie Classification 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 Doctoral- Extensive Doctoral- Intensive Masters-I Masters-II Bacc- Liberal Arts Bacc- General Bacc- Assoc Public Private working in doctoral institutions have over 50 colleagues); • in larger libraries, there are usually about two nonlibrarian staff members to each librarian (in small private institu- tions the ratio is closer to one-to-one); • librarians at larger libraries gener- ally serve fewer faculty members—22 to one vs. 30 or 40 to one at medium and small institutions, and fewer students (about 100 fewer students per librarian); • librarians in private colleges and universities serve fewer faculty and students than those in public institu- tions—the smallest student-to-librarian ratio is in private liberal arts colleges, which matches their usual promotional claims of more personal a ention. This is even clearer when the library sizes are condensed to three categories, in Figure 2: over half of all academic librarians work in large libraries (with twenty-three or more other librarians), while the great majority of institutions have small libraries (Figure 3).

     summary: f the focus of bibliographic description is the artifact—the precise capture of its physical and textual facts—the focus of subject headings work is the library user and his or her content-related needs and expectations.1 Ideally, subject head- ings enable users not familiar with the literature of a field to identify and gather together relevant works, regardless of their authors, titles, disparate physical locations, and what other major topics they may treat. This article extends arguments recently presented by Gross and Taylor (2005) in two directions: first, by considering the importance of subject headings for access to historical materials; and, second, by examining the value added by subject head- ings even when the full text of a work is available online.

     summary: The study suggests that this formula may be useful as a tool for library funding and assessment of adequacy of library budgets. Although these variables are imperfect measures of the theoretical construct and, as discussed in more detail later, there are other potential determinants of library funding that might usefully be considered in future research, the variables selected represent measurable indicators of institutional characteristics related to the demand for library services.

     summary: Whereas libraries with a traditionally undergraduate orientation regard collec- tions in terms of a curricular “service,” research libraries understand the loosely coupled nature of means and ends in what James G. March terms knowledge inventories: “Does society ‘overinvest’ in library books? It makes some observations that, when combined with a university’s own needs and ingenuity, may be generally useful for judging whether a standard process to assess research collections would strengthen program review and refine institutional development.

     summary: Therefore, the purpose of this study was to identify the nature of the association between critical thinking disposition and library anxiety among graduate students. Specifically, whereas critical thinking disposition is positively related to performance in academic-re- lated activities,33 library anxiety is nega- tively associated with academic-related achievements, such as research proposal writing,34,35 grade point average,36 and performance in research methodology courses.37,38

     summary: The conclusion introduces several problems that medical librarians will have to face in the future; most important of these: being able to provide access to medical information as well as being able to preserve it. Since the beginning of the twentieth cen- tury, the field of medical librarianship has evolved dramatically, gaining momentum in the midst of political and social influ- ences throughout the world.

     summary: They also reported that, as libraries and librarians acquire more experience with electronic resources and digital projects, more functional areas throughout the institution are involved.27 Therefore, not only does the progression of technology seem to be introducing more opportuni- ties for project-based work in libraries, but the increased complexity caused by a project’s need for expertise from multiple departments leads to an increased need for project management skills in modern librarian jobs. First, is the profession of librarian- ship really experiencing an increased demand for project management skills as evident through, for example, required qualifications listed in librarian job an- nouncements?

     summary: The traditional reliance on place names and political jurisdictions needs to be complemented by greater attention to space, using latitude and longitude. Cultural discourse tends to be about places rather than spaces and, being cultural and linguistic, place names tend to be multiple, ambiguous, and unstable.

     summary: As with seemingly all recently pub- lished reference works on the decora- tive arts, the obligatory distinction to be made between them and the fine arts, and between cra and art, is presented at the outset in the introduction, and the decorative arts, as they are defined for this project, are laid out: ceramics, glassware, metalwork (including arms and armor), weaving and textiles, furniture-making, interior decoration, decorative (as opposed to easel) painting such as murals and on po ery, clock and watch making, carving (of wood, ivory, etc.), and other forms of ornament. The earlier printed encyclopedias, then published by Grove Dictionaries, covered American art before 1914, Latin American and Caribbean art (both are in the series Grove Encyclope- dias of the Arts of the Americas), and Ital- ian Renaissance and Mannerist art, with all three being part of the Grove Library of World Art, published in 2000.

     summary: If a counterbalance of interviews with academic librarians had been included, the book would have had a broader appeal and could have built a similar empathy for librarians; faculty reading the book could have been educated, and students entering the field of academic librarianship could have learned much about the ranks they would be joining, as well as learning about the lives of faculty members. His charitable voice, always hopeful and helpful, seeking compromise and under- standing, guides the discourse. Chapter one, “The faculty: who they are, how they think,” is a sort of field guide to help academic librarians distin- guish the four types of faculty members they may (or may not) spot in the stacks.

     summary: In the book under review, he presents a heartfelt critique of the digitization of libraries and defense of traditional book culture in the form of a novella embodying a “cautionary tale about the demise of the printed book, the decline of reading, and the confl ict of print and digital culture.” Briscoe’s basic message seems to be that, whereas libraries have historically been the natural allies of the bibliophilic forces of light, their recent turn toward fund- ing for digital resources to the detriment of book acquisition and preservation is turning them into abettors of the forces of darkness.

     summary: Pressure for reform in American higher education persisted through the century and American universities began offering higher degrees. It was not a transformation fostered by an evolving sense that higher education meant research, but rather a transforma- tion based on demands for public ac- countability from bureaucrats that turned German universities from the medieval form into the model imported to the United States.

     summary: Henry Petroski, technology his- torian and professor of civil engineering at Duke, has writt en several books with a bearing on libraries and the evolution of information storage and transmission, among them The Pencil: A History of Design and Circumstances (Knopf, 1990) and The Book on the Bookshelf (Knopf, 1999). In the historiography of libraries and knowledge transmission, this trend has been reflected in recent years by books that look at the material culture of our profession, from ancient times to the present.

     summary: All this must necessarily include the relation- ship between organizational politics and organizational commitment, and indeed this type of relationship is an emerging theme in the literature (for example, Wi et al., 2002),6 and is indicative of an in- creased interest in organizational politics beginning in the 1980s.7 Thus, the general research question of this study is: Does organizational learning occur in the procedures of library evaluation? Although there has been recognition of a range of different types of library evaluation, and increasing sophistication in the actual tools of evaluation, there has been insufficient attention to how library evaluation can be integrated into the library as a continuing planning and responding process.13 That is, evaluation should ideally be a built-in process, con- http:process.13 http:sustained.12 http:achieved.11 38 College & Research Libraries January 2008 ducted by the library itself.

     summary: Johansen focuses chapter 1, “Weather Wars: Hard Science and Hardball Poli- tics,” on the world of James E. Hansen, director of NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Science and a true (and truth- ful) expert on climate change. Johansen refers to some recent polls that indicate the extent of ignorance regarding basic science among the general public: …polls indicated that only about 40 percent of U.S. citizens subscribed to the theory of evolution, about 20 percent insisted that the sun revolved around the Earth, one- half believed that human beings coexisted with dinosaurs… Of particular interest in this chapter are Johansen’s descriptions of the dispo- sition of many people toward relativistic thinking, which posits that “everybody has a view, and all are equally valid”; academia’s unwillingness in many cases to protect teachers from attack by zeal- ous creationists; the phenomena of “closet creationists” who teach science in our public schools; and proposals that religious belief and text enter into education not through the door of the science classroom, but through those of history and literature where they more properly belong.

     summary: Johansen gives a thorough examina- tion of this complex case, beginning in the preface to Silenced when he describes his own connection to the case and in chapter 4 telling the fascinating story of how Churchill’s detractors used his own shortcomings as a scholar to fuel their virulent attacks to bring him down. Most of the chapters are focused on subject areas but the two final chapters are more broadly based: Carrie Forbes’ chapter on integrat- ing discipline-based library instruction into the curriculum, and Jennifer Bowers’ concluding chapter discussing changing disciplinary boundaries and the nature of interdisciplinary research.

     summary: According to Burgan, among the big- gest impediments to faculty members re- engaging in productive governance is their exasperation with institutional complexity and their fear of wasting valuable time either addressing insoluble problems or trying to work with administrations that are not committed to collaboration. This should not 188 be interpreted as saying Burgan naively believes major problems will simply melt away when faculty members assert them- selves, but rather she cogently shows why students and the public interest are not well served when the faculty are not actively involved in governance.

     summary: When the definitive history of the instruc- tion movement in libraries is written, there will be a chapter dedicated to the work of Evan Farber at Earlham College. Evan Farber’s writings are already widely available in the literature, and what the field needed was not another container in which Farber’s work could be housed, but, rather, an opportunity for today’s leading college and instruction librar- ians to explore and debate the ongoing significance of his ideas and his life’s work.

     summary: Here, while Jeanneney retains that concern about American cultural dominance, he has set himself (and librarians and archivists) a larger challenge. And, while some 21st-century instruc- tion librarians may find Farber’s focus on teaching students about “the eff ective use of …library materials” and on the importance of a well-designed search strategy to be somewhat limited in today’s environment, one must also recognize the prescience of Farber’s comments on the importance of continuing professional education for teaching librarians (1977) and on the role that critical thinking instruction would play as part of instruc- tional services in libraries and as part of the broader enterprise of undergraduate education in an information age (1984).

     summary: In one of the funniest but also most illuminating inter- views of this highly enjoyable volume— Markham’s conversation with Eric Korn, the London bookman once known for his “Remainders” column in The Times Liter- ary Supplement—we come to understand that “ill-organized” may in fact be just the self-deprecating way in which the very best booksellers describe how they lead a customer from book to seemingly unre- lated book, often based on only a single minor physical or textual detail the books have in common—“minor,” that is, except in the eye of the prospective customer. Crisscrossing associative fi laments link the thousands of books on the bookseller’s shelves in a dense net of intertextuality, a net that may exist solely in the bookseller’s mind and can be only inadequately rep- resented or replaced by catalog searches or even keyword searching in a full-text environment.

The analysis developed a framework of use restrictions that distinguishes between soft restrictions—which discourage use—and hard restric- tions—which strictly prevent use.

     summary: Transitions Faced by New Academic Librarians Joanne Oud This article discusses the experiences of new academic librarians as they adjust to theworkplace. They compare the socialization process of new academic librarians with that of new professors, pointing out areas for improvement in graduate training and suggesting socialization strategies for libraries.10 In the third group, studies look at the initial a itudes and job ex- periences of new librarians.11 Studies of how librarians progress through various socialization stages are rare; for example, Ma hews reports on stages of transition for university librarians.12 Organizations need to understand the kinds of changes experienced by new employees during their adjustment to the workplace to formulate effective strategies for socialization.

     summary: This finding en- abled us to anticipate the same problem in our study and develop an estimate for electronic use. When we compare the two charts below, we can see that book use in all disciplinary categories is slightly down in 2005 from an average of earlier years, with the exception of PS/IR, where book use dropped by more than 50 percent in 2005, as well as in Psychology, where it returned to 1999 levels.

     summary: However, the themes that emerge from the essays taken as a whole should be of interest (and concern) to all librarians and archivists: nearly every essayist describes the unfortunate effects of war, revolution, and censorship on library collections. In matters more pertinent to everyday library operations, the authors note the historical importance of catalogs and what they reflect about their owners’ collecting goals; they describe shelfmarks and shelving methods and show how these suited the needs of the reader/ owner; they provide physical details on individual books that give us hints on how particular readers used books and texts.

     summary: The project took an ethnographic approach in that it studied student culture by conducting interviews, observing students both inside the library and out, and mapping their curricular and extracurricular activities. Noting that changing technology and social habits had transformed student culture, they initi- ated a blitz program: keeping later library hours, offering free coffee and cookies, and promoting chat and telephone services.

     summary: The challenge for students (and others) may well be to manage effort so as to optimize results. The explicit implication for information lit- eracy is that students could be convinced that the cognitive effort spent in such a course can result in sufficient cognitive difference that their performance in other courses will be enhanced.

     summary: Table 6 registers the mean propor- tion of open Web site citations per bibliography at 16.8 percent, with the social sciences having the high- est proportion at 20.1 percent, humanities the lowest at 12.2 percent, and the sciences falling between at 15.7 percent. In a series of three seminal studies, Davis & Cohen and Davis looked at the bibliographies from one multisection, introductory economics course at Cornell University, assessing the type and quality of resources, in addition to measuring the pervasiveness of open Web citations.11 Grimes and Boening, a er interviewing students and faculty and analyzing the bibliographies from two English compo- sition classes, concluded that community college students used “unevaluated or inappropriate” Web resources.12 Jenkins, analyzing an informal sample of 116 bibliographies drawn from a range of academic disciplines at the College of Mount St. Joseph, determined that while open Web citations were common, they were overshadowed by traditional library http:resources.12 http:citations.11 http:University.10 344 College & Research Libraries July 2008 resources, articles, and books.13 Leiding analyzed a random sample of under- graduate honors theses at James Madison University wri en during the period of 1993–2002 with the primary intent of as- sessing local collections and found that under 8 percent of the citations from post-Web bibliographies were composed of open Web resources.14 Tomaiuolo, who gauged student use of Web resources indirectly through a survey of English faculty, concluded that college students “continue to use open Web resources extensively.

     summary: It has been demonstrated that 25 percent of Mansell entries are unlikely to be found in WorldCat, even with the inclusion of RLIN records. He also found that the com- pleteness of information provided for an individual title in the different resources varied: the print volumes tended to have fuller institutional holdings information, but many OCLC records contained more up-to-date data such as the International Standard Serial Number (ISSN).4 A number of studies have compared hit rates between OCLC and RLIN, as well as hit rates for now-defunct bibliographic databases such as the Western Library Net- work (WLN).

     summary: Brookfield’s exten- sive investigation into the roles of critical reflection in teaching and learning pro- cesses led to the development of the CIQ.32 The primary purpose of this instrument is to assess student critical thinking and subsequently reflect on these findings as a source of professional development by teachers. Moreover, generative metaphors were used in the teaching process that helped bring out deeper criti- cal reflection on student learning.

     summary: In particular, the survey asked respon- dents to answer questions about: (1) the steps they took during the research pro- cess, (2) the perceived helpfulness of the campus library, (3) the perceived helpful- ness of professors’ coaching techniques on research assignments, (4) the problems experienced during the research process, (5) the time spent researching, writing, and editing research papers, and (6) the major concerns with working on research projects. Thirty handouts detail- ing student research assignments in a humanities or social sciences course were analyzed.

     summary: When the content of individual entries is relatively brief and not complexly struc- tured, and the works in question likely to be used on an occasional rather than steady basis, reference works have been relatively easy to transform, although Sarah Wi e and Mary Cargill are reference librarians in Butler Library at Columbia University; e-mail: spurgin@columbia.edu and cargill@columbia.edu. All but Credo are produced by a company that is itself a publisher of reference works.

     summary: Given the high interest in information literacy programs in the profession that has been expressed in many venues, a compilation such as this one is long overdue. A full read- through works best if the reader wants to examine the commonalities in the chal- lenges, advantages, and assessment of various information literacy programs.

     summary: Dougherty ar- gues that anyone concerned about library assessment or library management today should continue to take advantage of the analytical tools developed as part of the 478 College & Research Libraries scientific management movement even if he or she has no desire to embrace the management philosophies they were used to support. It is unusual to find a text focused on operational issues in library management returned to the shelves after a gap in revi- sion of a quarter-century.

     summary: Based on the description of this book, readers would likely expect a theoretical, practical, or contemplative book on the history of image collections, digitization’s impact on image collections, methods of constructing image collections, or points of consideration in defining and building image collections. General audience readers may find the book a useful prompt for discussions on the concept of image collections; however, the book’s description does not lend itself to interesting those readers.

     summary: The authors also provide a theoretical foundation useful for transi- tioning academic libraries and detailed, real-world examples of how certain aca- demic libraries are evolving to meet new challenges in the 21st century. Despite the aforementioned weak- nesses, the authors are largely success- ful in explaining the need for change in academic libraries and the ins and outs of how to go about such change.

     summary: The sub- sequent five chapters discuss the structure of FRAD and its relation to FRBR; FRBR, and the history of cataloging (this chapter, by William Denton, is a delightful and in- formative read that provides a broad per- spective on the history of the organization of bibliographic information); the history of FRBR research and its impact on the further development thereof; the concept of “bibliographic families” as groups of related works; and—the most direct area of professional concern—the incorporation of FRBR concepts into the new cataloging code now being developed: RDA (Re- source Description and Access). Alexander C. Thur- man notes that FRBR would have to be a supplement to archival control as exhibited in finding aids or collection- level MARC records, as FRBR concepts cannot sufficiently represent the collec- tion, which is the “central unit of archival organization.”

     summary: In it, Sherman offers a short history of attitudes to “dirty books,” from the efforts of earlier collectors and conserva- tors to rid books of readers’ marks—only clean and cleaned books welcome—to contemporary wisdom on the need to protect the historical integrity of arti- facts—grubbiness is part of the historical record and should be preserved. But that 20 percent does reveal the extent to which printed books were sites of engagement and activity, sometimes creative, sometime routine.

     summary: In this hybrid and shift ing information realm, there are im- portant research and operational question for academic librarians about the right balance between print and digital, about what current media to acquire, and about how best to manage our massive legacy of print collections. The death of print has been greatly exaggerated for at least the last two decades, but it is hard not to notice that change is occurring and the pace is quickening.

     summary: The authors decided to take a closer look at the 1,000+ wri�en comments to get a be�er understanding of the issues that were most important to University of Notre Dame library users and to deter- mine if the information gleaned from the comments supported what was learned from the quantitative data. Understanding the needs of library users can be challenging and is complicated by the differences in needs and expectations among different user groups.

     summary: At the same time, despite evidence that they lack basic information literacy skills, students consistently rate themselves as effective users of information.6 To understand how to apply the find- ings in this study more broadly, it is im- portant to comprehend how MIT students vary in information-use practices from students at other universities. Despite common stereotypes, MIT students are more well rounded today than ever before.7 Today’s techies, the traditional mainstay of MIT’s enrollment, are equally a�ractive to top liberal arts schools and are actively re- cruited by them.

     summary: Other implications of this computational theory of library research are also explored. There are library research how-to manuals for graduate students in sca�ered fields, a fact that indicates that humanists as well as some social scientists do sometimes teach library research skills to their graduate students, introducing them to the critical reading of sources and to the major bibliographical and archival guides for their fields.3 But seasoned library researchers do not seem to write much about library research methods in general.

     summary: For the total sample of 350 students, anal- ysis of student syllabi and assignment de- scriptions revealed that 97 percent of the students were required to find research resources during the first semester of their first year of college. Previ- ous literature on this topic generally recommends a “tiered” approach to curriculum-integrated instruction (CII); these tiered approaches suggest teaching basic skills to first- and second-year students and advanced skills to third- and fourth-year students.

     summary: Moreover, recent research shows that students and faculty in the sciences use 580 College & Research Libraries November 2008 library books just as much as their coun- terparts in the humanities. For example: • library books in the natural and applied sciences typically circulate just as much as those in other subject areas;16 • the use of electronic books (views or downloads per title) is higher in the sciences than in other fields;17 • engineering and physical science majors check out library books only slightly less o�en than other students;18 • nursing students rely more on books than on journals;19 • in their wri�en coursework, engi- neering students beyond the first year of study cite five times as many books as journal articles;20 • science faculty cite books on a regular basis, and the number of citations per cited book is especially high in the sciences;21 • more than 80 percent of the books acquired by academic health science libraries circulate within the first three years, with an average of 4.6 circulations during that time.22 Circulation data for a typical liberal arts college (table 1) provide further evidence of frequent book use in the sciences.

The chair of the Tenured Task Force requested that the task forces be combined because annual merit evaluations and the distribu- tion of annual merit pay is the same for both tenured and covered librarians.

Additional reasons for considering paperbacks include the improved quality of paperback editions, the ability to add supplemental bindings to paperback editions (especially when heavy use is ex- pected), and the fact that the physical life span of paperback editions o en exceeds the intellectual life span of their content.

     summary: He wraps up his introductory sections with a brief chapter on the development of documentation, beginning in antiquity with the oral tradition of acknowledg- ing a predecessor and ending with some observations about modern use of APA and MLA citation styles. For those who have struggled with teaching undergraduate students the intricacies of citation style, Hauptman’s comment that, after 20 years as an editor, “some authors, even those whose cre- dentials and publication records would seem to imply an absolute mastery of this simple necessity, are incapable of getting things just right” provides some contex- tual awareness.

     summary: If campus administrators, developmental educators, regional and national devel- opmental education associations, and policy makers have no knowledge from the literature of how academic libraries support developmental students, it is highly unlikely that academic libraries will ever play a part in any policy or budgetary decision-making related to developmental education at the local, state, or national levels. Fully 83 percent of librarians inter- viewed indicated that library instruction is incorporated into academic success courses, which are often required for developmental education students.

Chapter 5 describes the cadels, ara- besques, and illustrative motifs Spierinc used to adorn the book’s text pages, pro- viding valuable insight into his specific calligraphic techniques and comparing his own work to model books and other devotional texts of the period.

     summary: A chapter on classic titles includes books that have remained in publication for over fifty years even though they may never have received an award. They tell if there are other books that would complement the specific book and if there is additional support- ing information provided in the book.

     summary: As it happens, I was a graduate student in English literature and library science at the University of Pittsburgh during the time period of the Pitt Study, and I had Allen Kent as a teacher for one course in library automation, using punched sorting cards as I vaguely remember. Kent was excellent in the classroom, and his enthusiasm for library research was infectious.

     summary: While managing an institutional repository or open access journal does not affect atti- tude or frequency of open access–related communication, individuals involved in educating others about open access are more likely to not only support the con- cepts of open access but to also more fre- quently read or communicate with others about open access. While academic librarians are being encouraged to promote these new models, their opinions about open access have not been documented.

     summary: Implications for Research The application of competency theory to information literacy represents a new ap- proach to understanding how to improve student information literacy skills. To determine if competency theory applies to students who have nonprofi- cient information literacy skills, Gross and Latham replicated the Kruger and Dunning studies, focusing on the infor- mation literacy skills of

     summary: Several researchers have ap- plied an information quality framework to assess Internet information, and most have found that, although online informa- tion has proliferated at a remarkable rate, the number of Web sites providing com- plete information accounts for only a very small portion of the total. 2. Information completeness is a rela- tively subjective measure, which depends on context, specific domain, or subject.30 Even within a topic, a wide range of scores can be obtained for the criterion “expiation of topic” due to different types of sources.

     summary: This finding was supported by a T-test that was run to determine the statistical significance of user searches before versus after the catalog redesign. The data also suggest that the implementation of a link resolver was highly influential, as searches initiated by the resolver created a large increase in catalog searches, particularly ISSN searches.

     summary: Many of the citations derive from Appalachian Studies’ two primary schol- arly journals, Appalachian Journal and the Journal of Appalachian Studies, and from well-known anthologies and readers. There are numerous problems with this bibliography: it lacks name author- ity control (for instance, Pat and Patricia D. Beaver); citation selection appears to be random (for example, it includes Rory Kennedy’s book American Hollow but neither the video documentary upon which it was based nor the extensive “roundtable” discussion it received in Appalachian Journal); it includes mate- rial that is from areas not included in ARC’s or any other previous definition of the region (one example being Louisa County, Virginia, to the east of Appala- chia and Williamson County, Tennessee, to its west); articles are misclassified (for example, folklorist Richard Blaustein’s article on musician Clint Howard is under Appalachian Studies rather than Music); the subject index was apparently computer generated and egregiously in- adequate; and various publications such as the Encyclopedia of Appalachia and three special Appalachian issues of the Black Music Research Journal (full disclosure: I served as guest editor of the latter) were sampled without an explanation of why some articles were included and oth- ers were not (for instance, included are Pearson’s article on Appalachian blues, Higby and Wright’s on Appalachian jazz, Lightfoot’s on white blues but not Zol- ten’s on Appalachian R&B, Davenport’s on great blues singer/poet Ida Cox, or Hay’s on the Appalachian roots of James Brown’s music).

     summary: Roe claims “the first English auction catalogue devoted to music” was issued for the sale of William Gostling’s collection in 1777, though music historian John Hawkins named five earlier auctions (1714–66) and provided details presumably garnered from catalogs no longer extant. In part, this neglect is due to the separations men- tioned by the editors in their Introduction: the means of production and distribution have become significantly different from those of the ordinary book trade, the use of printed music is different as is the size of the market (being at the same time specialized but global).

     summary: However, in most cases, the library has kept its IT scope clear but limited—collecting and sharing scholar- ship—and left broader IT services, such as administrative and academic computing, classroom support, computer labs, and tech support to the CIO. The growth in the impor- tance of CIO position between these two searches was striking in many respects, including rising status, responsibility, and influence.

     summary: If a student needs help, a librarian or instructor can shape the advice that is offered to the student by identifying the student’s position in the 3 Directions and urging the student to take the actions that have been used by other students in similar situations and so are most likely to advance them along the dimensions. The model presented here is first and foremost an attempt to understand student experiences and so is based on description and analysis of case studies of one junior and nine seniors at Indiana University Bloomington.

     summary: The projected Phase 2 will invite the par- ticipation of other research libraries and possibly expand the scheme to include monographs.15 A recent estimate is that conventional library storage can house 145 volumes per square metre (121 per square yard), as compared to high-density repository storage of 373 volumes per square metre (312 per square yard).36 Based on these figures, the saving in li- brary floorspace would amount to some 3,691 square metres (4,429 square yards), which could be replaced by 1,434 square metres (1,721 square yards) of reposi- tory floorspace.

     summary: ibraries utilize measurement systems for a multitude of purposes: to collect and ana- lyze data, such as the number of directional versus reference questions, for reporting purposes; to understand patrons’ use of technology, such as the library’s Web site, to improve its design and usability; and to improve and control both internal and public transactional processes, in areas such as cataloging and circulation. A meeting was convened to review the RUSA Guidelines for Approachability, Listening/Inquiring, and Follow-Up behaviors, along with the OSU Libraries definitions for directional, basic, and specialist reference questions that were based on ARL definitions and used in the previous project.

     summary: With new technologies and innovations reshaping the way librarians envision and deliver library services, the field of academic library research has changed dramatically since 1990. These dramatic transformations in academic libraries inspired Marie L. Radford and Pamela Snelson’s 2008 edited collection, Academic Library Research: Perspectives and Current Trends, which is an update of Academic Libraries: Research Perspectives, edited by Mary Jo Lynch and Arthur P. Young and published by ACRL in 1990.

     summary: The body of literature on academic library assessment is important, substantial, and growing, and Radford and Snelson’s collection would have been enhanced by more than two chapters on assessment and evaluation.—Maria T. Ac- cardi, Indiana University Southeast. Mark Bauerlein. If what Bauerlein says is true, then, especially with respect to technology addiction and intense peer-focused socializing, we should expect to see a drop in mono- graphic circulations along with a corre- sponding rise in use of library-provided electronic resources, the library’s wireless Book Reviews 595 network, and library social spaces such as common study areas, cafés, etc.

     summary: Where each chapter draws out a spe- cific instance or concern for librarianship and technology, Bushman’s conclusion synthesizes them into a comprehensive argument on the imperative for librarian- ship to question and critique technologies. As a second edition of Critical Approaches to Information Technology in Librarianship: Foundations and Applications (1993) edited by Bushman, one of the core strengths of this volume is the historical context it provides for current issues in relation to technology.

     summary: The first question that it seeks to address is wheth- er similar patterns of monographic usage are observed in this area of literary studies when compared to other studies of mul- tiple disciplines within the humanities7 and by studies of literature.8 In addition, it examines the age of materials referenced in an effort to gain insight into the shelf- life of these materials, as several studies have emphasized.9 This study intends to address these questions by examining the materials referenced in articles found in three well-known journals in the field across a 30-year time span. This finding reflects the trends shown in other studies that emphasize the importance of these book format sources in the humanities as a whole, and in literary studies in particular.

     summary: English professor Carol A. Senf describes bringing her undergraduate Victorian studies class to the Special Collections Department as a means to encourage students move beyond their tendency to use “already digested” secondary sources that were often chosen without much thought.5 Senf also notes that archival sources can dramatically reduce plagiarism, since their individual nature means that sec- ondary sources defining and analyzing a particular document are less likely to exist.6 Additional benefits of course proj- ects conducted in the Special Collections, as detailed by history professor Marian J. Matyn, are an increase in the confidence level of student research and papers that are better informed and more engaging.7 In contrast to these testimonies, Kath- leen D. Roe writes, “The general lack of understanding of archives is painfully evident to the archival profession.”8 The following statements extracted from student papers aim to show a variety of the student observations and sentiments without being redundant.

     summary: The intersection of information practices, governmental administration, and political purposes provides the thematic backdrop for the book under review, in which Jacob Soll, an associate professor of history at Rutgers University and specialist in the political and cultural history of early modern France, presents a wide-ranging and richly documented study of how one of Louis XIV’s most prominent ministers, Jean-Baptiste Col- bert (1619–1683), harnessed a number of information institutions and practices into a “state information system” to sup- port the administrative apparatus and absolutist ambitions of the French state under the Sun King. Born into a merchant family and trained in the mercantile arts, Colbert en- tered into state administration at an early age and rose to prominence in the 1650s as financial manager for, and administrative factotum to, Cardinal Mazarin, the chief minister of France. Colbert used the libraries-cum-archives under his control not only as sources of information for his personal administra- tive work but also as instruments for projecting state interests into the realm of cultural politics.

The rest of this chapter is an interesting depiction of the intersection of printers, scholars, and libraries of Leiden, more concrete and particular than some of the more speculative and table-heavy chapters that follow, and more likely to appeal to those readers with an interest in book history rather than economic theory.

More inexplicable and less forgivable, particularly in a book about books, is the absence of proper citations for many of the illustrations, and the incorrect or in- adequate descriptions given of the same.

     summary: When asked what it is like to be a li- brary director, the first thought that often enters my mind is how much time and effort I devote to library facilities – their design or re-design, collection storage options, public and staff work spaces, and, of course, the daily needs of build- ing maintenance and custodial services. Considering the amount of time aca- demic librarians spend on space issues, we do not receive many manuscripts for consideration on this important topic.

     summary: The criteria for journal articles included (a) the nature of the articles (that is, re- search paper vs. practice-based paper); (b) solicited assessments of articles by experts outside the institution; (c) solicited assessments of articles by experts within the institution; (d) unsolicited assessments of articles (internal and external to institu- tion); (e) letters to the editor commenting upon the article; (f) awards/other formal recognition of articles; (g) citations of articles; (h) articles appearing in refereed journals; (i) indexing/abstracting services where the journal is listed; (j) perceived value of the journal to the profession; (k) journal impact ranking from the Institute for Scientific Information’s Citation Index- Library School Programs and the Successful Training of Academic Librarians 101 es; (l) requests for reprints; (m) quantity of journal articles.33 Within their survey responses, Bra- digan and Mularski determined that 63.5 percent of libraries who responded that their librarians held faculty status required publication, as opposed to en- couraging publication.34 Of the two types of institutions surveyed, research institu- tions were found to place a higher value on awards and other formal recognition of monographs and on assessment by experts outside the institution. Research institutions also rated article citations and awards for journal articles more highly than did doctoral-granting institutions.35

     summary: In an era when print reference texts are a hard sell in any context, the real value of a subject dictionary like this one is the access it gives researchers to authoritative, objective snapshots of a field of study. And perhaps this is why many reference texts are produced not by single authors but by editors who seek contributions from a cross- section of scholars and researchers.

     summary: Chapter 2 reveals how he synthesized these two compet- ing points of view in his monumentally influential Hexapla, a work that not only changed the way serious biblical scholar- ship was conducted but also ushered in a new awareness of how innovative textual layouts and designs could impose order on complex texts, create new kinds of scholarly authority, and influence how readers interacted with and asked ques- tions of texts. Although their chosen topic is large and complex, the authors focus their attention on three major subjects: Origen (ca. 184–254) and his groundbreaking biblical reference work, the Hexapla; Eusebius (ca. 260–339), and his revolutionary reconceptualization of history in his Chronicle; and the great library at Caesarea developed by Pamphi- lus (d. 310) and Eusebius and the power it exerted as a center of book production, knowledge creation, and intellectual and cultural exchange.

     summary: Although it deals with a world of information production, packaging, dis- semination, and reception that initially might seem foreign to our modern under- standings of these concepts, Christianity and the Transformation of the Book clearly reveals that a better understanding of book culture in the ancient world can teach us much about textual culture— whether print or digital—today. The result is a deep understanding of the relationships that drove (and im- peded) the flow of books and pamphlets into every corner of the literate public.

     summary: Mainstream newsrooms, however, like the rest of America society, remained largely segregated well into the mid-twen- tieth century and consequently restricted the work of African American journalists solely to black-owned presses. Through the application of standpoint theory, Hall explores how these autobiographical memoirs fit within the framework and tradition of African American autobiog- raphy and why each narrative possesses within it the distinctiveness of manifesto by critiquing the social, psychological, economic, and political dynamics operat- ing within their personal and professional lives as African American journalists.

     summary: The percentage of available OA articles is the same, though, as the findings of Matsubayashi and others in their study of the biomedical literature.29 However, while their study found most articles were available on publisher Web sites, this study found that the most common place for OA works to be found was depart- mental or organization Web sites.30 Only 36, or 14 percent of all OA articles, were found on publisher Web sites. Even though it is possible to discover OA articles using a variety of resources, such as Google, CiteSeerX or OAIster, Google Scholar was chosen as studies have shown that the vast majority of scholars regularly use it in their research.

     summary: For the uninitiated and/or innumerate, this daunting tome will appear, prima facie, to be alarmingly technical; and, since most librarians are not conversant with sophisticated statistical methodolo- gies, the whole notion of library metrics might prove to be off-putting to the bulk of the targeted professional readership. Conse- quently, many of Cooper’s conclusions in the central chapter on “common charac- teristics” of child composers are difficult to substantiate: what does it mean, for instance, that, among this particular sample of musically important people who composed as children, so many of them became composers as adults?

     summary: This paper describes the many challenges faculty librarians face in balancing their work load with service and scholarship; justifies why academic librarians need tenure; and ultimately proves that tenure and faculty status for academic librarians are an absolute necessity. aculty status and tenure for librarians in the academic en- vironment has been debated for over a hundred years. This is due to incorrect perceptions about what academic librarians do and how they serve their profes- sion.

     summary: Furthermore, the claims of beneficence are frequently in conflict with the claims of fidelity, particularly when one is asked to do something prohibited by library policy. Much of the literature suggests that library staff often view their interactions with nonaffiliated patrons as problematic.

     summary: © Xuemei Ge This article focuses on how electronic information resources influence the information-seeking process in the social sciences and humanities. Thirty active social sciences and humanities faculty, as well as doctoral students, were interviewed about their use of electronic information resources for research purposes, their perception of electronic and print materials, their opinions concerning the Ellis model, and ways the model might apply to them.

     summary: Such transfers are possible, in Warner’s estimation, because these technologies are themselves the products of human labor and designed with specifically hu- man purposes in mind: historically, there has been a tendency to delegate as many processes of human labor as possible to technological tools. Both descriptive and search labor have seman- tic and syntactic components: for instance, the assignment of an index term to a docu- ment requires semantic description labor and the arrangement of a set of records into a series by the alphabetical order of their entry terms involves syntactic description labor, whereas translating a

     summary: Significantly, though, both types of searches require semantic search labor, for the onus is on the searcher to disambiguate and inter- pret the results of a full-text search. Because, in Warner ’s view, semantic labor is categorically not transferable to machines, any reduction in semantic description labor entails an increase in semantic search labor.

Much of the work done on research outlets, policies, and patterns has not been regularly updated.13 Describing publication outlets by impact factor alone is simplistic and does not reveal the rich- ness of library scholarship.

     summary: Access Control Technologies as “Regimes of Alignment” License agreements between information providers and academic libraries defined users in contractual terms, but, over the past fifteen years, providers and libraries have worked together to develop and maintain systems of access control tech- nologies (ACTs) that enable and enforce the conceptions of authorized users laid out in license agreements. As variations in access became a product feature and pricing point, questions about who should have access became more important.33 Social Construction of Authorized Users in the Digital Age 553 Meanwhile, many information pro- viders hoped to expand to the end-user market under a pay-per-view business model.34 For example, in 1991, Collier, a British publisher, predicted that 99 percent of potential information users were end users who would individually purchase information.35 Wider access to e-resources from academic libraries could compete with attempts to market information directly to end users.

     summary: I maintain that understanding the process by which such distinctive services develop and contribute to the evolving mission of the 21st-century research library is as critical to its future as is understanding the environment for resource sharing, the need to rethink retention of print collections, or the challenges inherent in supporting e-scholarship. ARL has not yet chosen to “celebrate” the distinctive services of its member libraries in the way it did their special collections, but it has taken important steps by including studies of services in its “New Roles for New Times” initiative, and by bringing a services focus to its series of institutional profiles.4 O ver t he past t h ree yea rs, we at the University of Illinois at Urbana- Champaign have conducted an ongoing discussion of services as “signifiers of excellence” on par with our long-time focus on collections.

This redefinition of information literacy expands the scope of generally understood information competencies and places a particular emphasis on producing and sharing information in participatory digital environments.

     summary: Even though the history, sociology, and information science departments could no doubt use a systematic examination of information policies from either the historiography or methodological frame- works, Information Policies and Strategies will likely only benefit academic libraries that support library science programs, where information professionals can use it as a catalyst for developing concrete studies of how information policies are developed.—Timothy Hensley, Virginia Holocaust Museum. Despite this omission, he begins with a brief survey of how information has contributed to, and even shaped, our society and uses this position as a backdrop of assumptions for the remainder of the book, attempting to demonstrate how each of the forthcoming areas he investigates influences the way in which we handle information policies.

     summary: Mestre reports that many librarians of color are drawn to diversity-related jobs and can be the ideal prospects for positions that serve diverse populations. Even though the history, sociology, and information science departments could no doubt use a systematic examination of information policies from either the historiography or methodological frame- works, Information Policies and Strategies will likely only benefit academic libraries that support library science programs, where information professionals can use it as a catalyst for developing concrete studies of how information policies are developed.—Timothy Hensley, Virginia Holocaust Museum.

     summary: The opening chapter begins with the author making a case for why librar- ies should be involved in promoting diversity awareness and examines who multicultural librarians are. This well-designed, concisely written, and accessible survey is an essential re- source for librarians who work regularly - —or even rarely—with international students.

     summary: In light of the above discussion on knowledge, knowledge management, and knowledge sharing, the following section will focus on personality characteristics (self-efficacy and self-esteem) and situa- tional characteristics (cognitive appraisal: threat versus challenge) that might affect librarians’ readiness to collaborate and share information with other librarians in an organization. Many researchers,2 however, have claimed that knowledge sharing is the most critical hurdle for knowledge management.

     summary: Based on our years of experience as academic librarians and reading the library litera- ture, we had a sense that the vast majority of the published library research litera- ture emphasizes input/output measures and program evaluation rather than library impact, that the importance of the library to the campus is often assumed, and that very little is published on the library’s contributions to institutional goals. Most studies that investigate library impact are like the two studies by Whitmire: They look at measures that might indirectly influence student persistence, but they do not at- tempt to make direct assessments.

     summary: The cringing these comments elicit in library staff is an implicit recognition that “although librar- ians may still be providing significant value to their constituency, the value of their brand is decreasing.”4 “As uncertainty about the future persists, library staff may tend to cling to the familiar, resisting new approaches to the way they work.

     summary: FiguRE 1 Continuity of Web Resources by Subject Discipline 172  College & Research Libraries  March 2011 Characteristics of Web Resources across Disciplines With the Web continuing to play an important role in research practices, analyzing the types of Web resources used in research articles can show the degree to which different types of Web publications impact academic literature. While scientific researchers favor journal article publishing for sharing research dis- covery in a timely manner, social sciences and humanities scholars tend to employ books as a better channel for disseminat- ing intellectual output.10 In the electronic environment, with the ever-growing number of Web information resources available in greater depth, a logical ques- tion follows: Do Web resources influence the citation behavior of scholars in dif- ferent fields?

Core characteristics of learning objects include efficiency (for instance, cost and time saving),4 reusability, interoper- ability, durability, and accessibility.5 Additional characteristics to consider include facilitation of competency-based learning, increased value of content, and customization.6 Learning objects could be course-based but also remedial, allowing for a “just-in-case, just-in-time, just-for- you” approach.7 Viewing learning objects from the perspective of how they are accessed provides a similar yet slightly different conceptualization.

The Book in the Renaissance is an out- come of long work by a team at the University of St. Andrews, synthesiz- ing the wide variety of Web-based data now available with a wealth of more traditional scholarship in book history; it is a herald of the information that will soon be available in the Universal Short Title Catalogue.

     summary: On May 4, 1515, Pope Leo X issued a pe- culiar and remarkable decree, the Super impressione librorum (On the printing of books). In it, the Pope acknowledges a deep-seated sociocultural anxiety about the new technology of printing, stating that, although the reading of books can be a profitable pursuit for those seeking knowledge and the invention of printing has helped spread truth and learning more widely and inexpensively than ever before, the very same technology that en- ables the dissemination of truth also facili- tates the transmission and perpetuation of pernicious error that corrupts rather than edifies the reader.

     summary: Moving forward into the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, Volume II offers several compelling articles deal- ing with the production and selling of printed books, such as Natalie Zemon Davis’ fascinating account of the activi- ties and concerns of the Company of the Griffarins, a Lyonese trade union of journeymen compositors and pressmen; Clive Griffin’s revealing description of Book Reviews 301 the usefulness of Inquisitorial records as sources for insight into the itinerant lives of printers in sixteenth-century Spain; John L. Flood’s look at the rise and decline of the Frankfurt Fair and its impact on the commercial distribution of books across Europe during the Early Modern period; and Ian Maclean’s informative analysis of the market for scholarly books in northern Europe between 1570 and 1630. As informative and wide-ranging as the contents of these two volumes may be, in the end they can only be a repre- sentative sample of the many different approaches to book history that scholars have undertaken over the past several de- cades.

Volume II concludes with David Cressy’s article on the nonlit- erary fetishistic use of books as symbolic objects of talismanic power; even for the illiterate, Cressy argues, books embodied knowledge and authority.

     summary: Our review process, similar to that of other peer re- view scholarly journals, works like this: step one, manuscript (without author information) screened by an editorial assistant for worthiness of peer review; step two, manuscript (without author information) reviewed by two or more referees; and step three, editor makes final decision based on peer reviews and own evaluation. With ACRL support, we moved our journal’s manuscript sub- mission and peer review processes from a manual operation to an online system called “Editorial Manager” from Aries Systems.

     summary: It looks at the adoption of GS at a user level rather than an institutional or library level and explores several questions: • Which disciplines are using GS? • Are there statistically significant differences between GS users and nonusers? • What types of users (undergradu- ates, graduates, and faculty) are using GS? • Are GS users using other library resources?

     summary: Students Use More Books after Library Instruction 341 for nearly half of their citations, while FGCU students used them for only a third of their citations.9 A comparison to other institutions of higher learning demonstrates that the FGCU students are similar to other students across the United States in that they are relying on traditional sources like books and, at least among the higher level classes, do not rely heavily on Web sites.

     summary: The 1982 study built upon previous work in two main areas: 1) studies of library use and 2) an extensive literature in bibliomet- rics, particularly its use of citation links to trace dependency relationships among various fields of knowledge. This may help to explain the dropoff in library use by business faculty.

     summary: Although the literature shows the importance of measuring the relation- ship between student library usage and their academic performance, only few studies have actually been undertaken. Academic libraries must demonstrate empirically that library usage does contribute positively to student academic performance and, thereby, to the university’s effectiveness.

     summary: For example, 27 percent of the 174 journals in the Web of Science general medicine and research medicine categories are Open Access, and another 14 percent are hybrid journals that provide free access after an embargo period or for certain types of articles.2 From September 2004 to August 2010, the number of titles listed in the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) rose from 1,250 to more than 5,200.3 However, other evidence suggests that the number of new OA journals introduced each year has declined since its peak in 2001.4 In any case, OA journals appear to be growing in importance among college and university faculty. This paper describes the character- istics of the journals listed in the Direc- tory of Open Access Journals within six subject categories: biology, computer science, economics, history, medicine, and psychology.11 We present data on the size distribution of OA journals (articles per year) as well as informa- tion about publishers, dates of OA publication, countries and languages of publication, publication fees, and cita- tion impact factors.

     summary: South Africa exemplifies an incomplete transformation from the highly developed, bureaucratic, and se- cretive apartheid state to a country with explicit freedom of information rights but low citizen use and sporadic data collec- tion. This book more than meets its objec- tive of interrogating common assump- tions about the universal application of freedom of information rights.

     summary: Chapter 7 examines the possibility of connecting traditional knowledge organization, personal knowledge organization, and socially created knowledge organization to create structures for organizing knowl- edge that “reflect the actual information practices and engagement needs of us- ers,” with chapter 8 discussing possible scenarios for achieving this in the library world, ranging from a merged structure blending traditional bibliographic records with socially constructed fields added to creating an entirely new structure for bibliographic records. As the library grows to include more digital resources and users begin to create their own metadata, librarians must expand their concepts of knowledge organization beyond traditional means of description and classification.

All of the es- say authors, and the editors, are closely associated with academic libraries, with many serving in senior leadership roles in their respective libraries.

Like other advice throughout the book, the importance of wide access is directly related to fiscal responsibility and to sustainability, because closed access means that materials are less useful for students, researchers, and publicity and so lower access levels can undermine the return on investment and overall value of digital repository work.

     summary: Whereas such artists as George Cruikshank had employed art as social satire in creating prints or illustrating books, the artists of the Sixties worked in a more academic style to produce realistic drawings that were “both escapist and satirical, highly moral and overwhelmed with a sense of archaic dreaminess.” Such artists as George du Maurier, John Everett Millais, Frederick Sandys, and Frederick Walker worked directly with George Murray Smith, publisher of The Cornhill Magazine, and with John Cassell (The Quiver) and James Hogg (London Society).

     summary: Assessing Academic Libraries The question of how best to measure efficacy of academic libraries has been debated for many years during which most assessment and evaluation studies have focused on modifying corporate or business models. For example, Continu- ous Quality Improvement, Total Quality Management, Balanced Scorecard, and customer service assessment models are all management and evaluation tools that have had a significant impact on measures of academic library efficacy.4 In corporate settings, evaluating performance by estab- lishing these measures of success seems a reasonable approach.

     summary: © Shun Han Rebekah Wong and Dianne Cmor Academic libraries devote considerable human resources in delivering library instruction programs. This is an extension of an earlier project conducted a few months ago, which successfully uncov- ered a meaningful correlation between student GPAs and their loans of books and audiovisual materials.1 Literature Review Much of the literature on assessing li- brary instruction programs focuses on student perceptions of the instruction or on isolated skills improvement in the form of pre- and post-testing in relation crl-151 Measuring Association between Library Instruction and Graduation GPA 465 to library instruction.

     summary: Students may not find time to do much voluntary reading; but, if what they tell us is true, they do take pleasure in reading and would welcome efforts from libraries to help them discover reading material. We rearranged some of the shelving in our current periodicals section to create cozy reading and study nooks, hoping to increase serendipitous discovery of reading material.

     summary: According to administrators at the Ohio career schools, the lack of student and faculty buy-in was among their top library challenges.54 It was not surprising that career school students generally showed little interest in using the library. Even the collection of basic comparative data among career school libraries would be a useful addition to the literature.

     summary: The relative success of these resources often depended on their tight integration with either academic programs or library initiatives, suggesting the need for more collaborative dialogue around the use of new technologies and confirming the value of involving library management in suggesting course projects and viewing course results. Resources that lacked clear institutional support were “Changing the Way We Talk” 593 software purchased by both the UWA and Murdoch Libraries in September 2008 and used as a base platform by a number of course participants to create resources on subjects as diverse as Finding Legislation and Secondary Sources in 2009 or Case Law and EndNote in 2010.

     summary: The model of new librarianship presented in the Atlas is intended to foster these changes: indeed, it offers nothing less than a blueprint for redefining the conceptual foundations of librarianship in order to renew it. The aims of new librarianship are encapsulated in the statement that “the mission of librarians is to improve society through facilitating knowledge creation in their communities.”

     summary: A well-written and timely book on the topic, E-books in Academic Libraries is a good overview on the subject and is rec- ommended for those in libraries without large e-book collections or those wanting to know more on the topic.—Nicole Mitch- ell, University of Alabama at Birmingham. Even in an age where more and more library-subscribed digital content is ubiquitously available via any Internet- connected device, The Academic Library Building in the Digital Age demonstrates that colleges and universities continue to build new academic libraries and highlights some of the reasons why.

     summary: Even in an age where more and more library-subscribed digital content is ubiquitously available via any Internet- connected device, The Academic Library Building in the Digital Age demonstrates that colleges and universities continue to build new academic libraries and highlights some of the reasons why. In chapter 9, the author focuses on reported usage data within the new library spaces; his findings demonstrate that, while social areas like cafés, art gal- leries, and meeting space are important for new libraries, the busiest areas are group study and quiet study spaces.

     summary: This study has implications for library directors and administrators, organizational development specialists, and leadership trainers. Academic libraries may be in the pro- cess of reengineering their workforces, engaging faculty, creatively applying digital media, refining digitization pro- grams, creating tools for data curation across disciplines, publishing digital scholarship, and integrating the latest technology with teaching and learning.3 Entrepreneurship has been a popular business term since the 1980s, and many organizations have tried to become more entrepreneurial in recent years to compete with smaller, adaptable startups.4 With much change occurring throughout many academic institutions, library directors have opportunities to use entrepreneurial leadership to transform their organiza- crl-192 12 College & Research Libraries January 2012 tions to meet the changing information and service needs of users, even while under fiscal constraints.

     summary: In the intervening years, the use of various forms of online LI has become more com- monplace, but recent reviews have noted that there has still been very little written about the tracking or assessment of online tutorials or other forms of online LI.4 As early as 2000, Kyrillidou noted that a decline in LI statistics among As- sociation of Research Libraries (ARL) member institutions was “possibly… a function of the introduction of distance learning technologies in the delivery of library instruction.”5 Literature Review While online LI activities are increasingly becoming key components of many aca- demic libraries’ overall instruction plans, comparatively little has been written about the accounting or reporting of such activities.

     summary: Examining data on ILL requests for locally owned titles is an invaluable way to evaluate how well researchers are finding materials in their own library and how well library interfaces are assisting them in locating what they need. One way to assess the usability and effec- tiveness of WorldCat Local is to examine ILL requests placed by users for locally available materials when searching WCL, as ILL cancellations for local materials are often viewed as indicators of researchers’ ability to navigate resources and services at their own libraries.

     summary: In passing, it might be noted that the 2010–2012 stra- tegic plan of the Canadian Association of Research Libraries (CARL), the lead- ership organization for the Canadian research library community, calls on the Association to “work to develop research skills in research libraries and to promote evidence-based librarianship”; and, more recently, CARL published a new model “Core Competencies for 21st Century CARL Librarians,” which addresses re- search and professional contributions as a key component of practitioner expertise.3 Vicki Williamson (2010) undertook an informal questionnaire survey of academ- ic librarians’ faculty status and publishing requirements within the 29 members of CARL.4 Among the 19 responding insti- tutions (66%), the survey found that 14 (73%) had faculty status (although it was noted by one respondent that librarians had faculty status but not tenure). The practice of academic research and research leadership involves the many interconnected challenges of foundational competence, tacit knowledge gained through the experience of academic research apprenticeship, continuous learning about critical bodies of research literature, broad collegiality and net- working for research awareness and peer dialogue, beneficial research productiv- ity, and, with rare exceptions, extensive institutional investment.

     summary: It will also support OA authors for whom cost is a barrier.7 Publishing in open access journals is commonly referred to as gold OA, in contrast to green OA, which embraces self-archiving of final peer-reviewed man- uscripts in an institutional or disciplinary repository.8 York University Libraries support both forms of OA publishing. By subsidizing article processing fees for OA journals, univer- sities and funding agencies can provide equitable support for the business model for open access journals.

     summary: Conducting legal research can be daunt- ing for those who have not received extensive training on the American legal systems and related research materials. The sources used in legal research are often significantly different from those for other disciplines; at the same time, the legal process itself can be difficult for the uninitiated to follow, further compli- cating the research process.

     summary: However, it should be acknowledged that, although common in practice, some researchers criticize the calculation of a mean and standard deviation on data obtained from Likert type scales where initial ratings could be considered ordinal in nature, arguing that other statistical measures may be more appropriate.53 Correlations and Number of Sources Used Correlations between various character- istics of student papers are interesting to consider, but the values reported here do not appear to have much practical application. Instruction librarians also analyze student citations to determine the most effective teaching methods.

     summary: The book, with its illuminating and probing look at the development of the field of archival science and the impact one man had on it and other fields of intel- lectual study, proves that others have seen (and participated) in even more dramatic transformations. It skillfully blends scholarship, historical inquiry, and archival science into a seam- less whole, something archivists, scholars, and writers often attempt to do but do not achieve as neatly as Wosh does here.

     summary: The authors posit that while preserving digital media is vital, the preser- vation of information about digital objects, including administrative, descriptive, and cultural data, is equally important. Compiled by scholars from industry and academia in fields ranging from the arts and humanities to information studies, Digital Media explores, from multiple Book Reviews 307 perspectives, the “history, collection de- velopment, preservation, and ontological challenges of digital media.”

     summary: As I thought about topics such as the range of considerations in the preplanning stage of instructional design, how I might use the “Learning Activity Collaborative Plan- ning Checklist” to work more effectively with course instructors, and how I might employ agile design, I realized that Farm- er’s book has expanded my perspectives as a teacher and as a librarian.—Glenn Ellen Starr Stilling, Appalachian State University. Farmer follows Robert A. Reiser’s and John V. Dempsey’s 2007 definition of instructional design as an iterative process that moves reflectively through the stages of analysis, design, development, implementation, and evalu- ation.

     summary: While there is a considerable body of literature that presents the results of citation analysis studies, most researchers do not provide enough detail in their methodology to reproduce the study, nor do they provide rationale for methodological decisions. Collection-focused activities that make use of citation data include examining print versus electronic usage to determine the impact of electronic jour- nals, compiling lists of most- and least- cited journals and local holdings to make acquisition or cancellation decisions, and examining age of cited references to help develop storage and retention policies.4 There is a gap in the literature in that there is no consolidated set of guidelines or considerations on the methodology for citation analysis studies.

     summary: Such research will necessarily be ambitious, requiring not only evaluation of written products as artifacts of learning but incorporating the analysis of student research logs and interviews at multiple points throughout the student career of the research subjects. The less obvious implication for instruction, then, is this: undergraduate students, already familiar with search practice, when provided with adequate conceptual foregrounding and sufficient practice with academic research tools, can easily be placed in a position to counsel and coach their peers both as reference providers and as providers of information literacy instruction.

     summary: Increased access to research data will allow for verification and replication of results, provide a foundation for ad- ditional research, and increase the overall transparency of science. Scientists and scholars are increasingly generating vast amounts of digital content in the form of learning materials, publica- tions, and research data, yet data in digital form is extremely fragile due to limited standards for and adoption of good prac- tices.19 Most academic libraries support the delivery and maintenance of text- based collections in a variety of print and digital formats, as well as the management and delivery of images, multimedia files, sound, maps, and various other artifacts of 352 College & Research Libraries July 2012 research and culture.20 University libraries are increasingly recognizing that patrons have as-yet unmet needs for the manage- ment of research data sets.

     summary: Recently, OnCampus Re- search surveyed U.S. college students on their use and preferences for e-textbooks, finding a strong overall preference for print books and limited uptake of e- books.4 The Joint Information Systems Committee (JISC) conducted one of the largest-scale studies of e-book use and us- ers to date, with over 20,000 subjects at 120 U.K. institutions. This finding supports Rowlands et al’s conclusion that, among e-book users, men are more likely to read from a screen than women.11 Con- sidering the skewed gender ratios at some institutions or in specific departments, this finding could have real significance for collection development.

     summary: The reasons to support the research of academic librarians are varied and well argued: “Conducting research can contribute to career advancement for librarians, especially academic librarians on tenure track”;3 “[l]ooking analytically at librarianship through research fosters growth, curiosity, awareness and pro- motes new learning”;4 and “[e]ffective interaction between research and prac- tice will produce a strong theoretical framework within which a practitioner community can develop and thrive,”5 to cite only three examples. Because we wanted to develop a curriculum that addressed more than simply acquiring a skill set, we designed a survey that would help us understand academic librarian research from a holistic viewpoint.

     summary: Academic libraries cannot be treated as a homogenous group of institutions, and the study analyzes shifts by type, size, and Carnegie class of institution, illustrating significant difference among these classes of academic libraries, particularly among large doctoral institutions and other academic libraries, with large public and doctoral private institutions driving growth, while small and medium-sized academic libraries have fallen behind in both collections and staff investments. or decades, at professional meetings and in the profes- sional literature, librarians have voiced the view that academic library budgets are being eroded and constrained. Conclusions The study confirms a number of findings from previous studies and discussions regarding academic library trends, while also demonstrating some countervailing evidence regarding previously held no- tions about academic libraries.

     summary: That said, however, the information contained here makes this work—and indeed the entire series—an important acquisition for the reference sec- tion of map libraries with a strong historical focus or for the general reference sections of larger research libraries. The book concludes with a brief eight-title bibliography, indexes to personal and geo- graphical names, map titles, and finally a list of all atlases referenced, complete with index numbers in the Atlantes Neerlandici, a three-volume compendium published by coauthor van der Krogt between 1997 and 2003, in which more information on each atlas can be found.

     summary: After providing an outline for the entire book, Gilton, in chapter 1, defines and describes Information Literacy Instruction (ILI), walks readers through the history of ILI in different library set- tings, and introduces the background of ILI in public libraries as well as the unique aspects of instructional activities in public libraries. Gilton points out further that instruction in public libraries takes many forms, with the overriding goal to benefit the broadest user community across the widest age range.

     summary: Nancy H. Seamans’ final essay looks back retrospectively at information literacy in libraries and reports on discus- sions she had with several library leaders concerning the successes and failures of library information literacy instruction in the last twenty years, as well as pointing to opportunities for the future. Perhaps one of the most dramatic responses to this era of change has been libraries’ in- creased emphasis on information literacy.

     summary: Clearly, student growth and develop- ment are common goals for libraries and student affairs. Or perhaps libraries and student affairs are just discovering the collaborative poten- tial as assessment becomes a focus for best practices—see for example, M.

     summary: It is somewhat surprising, however, that there’s so little published about library partnerships with student affairs, especially when one considers their services and support in various areas that encompass the physical, emotional, and mental well-being of students and that ultimately impact their learning. Clearly, student growth and develop- ment are common goals for libraries and student affairs.

     summary: Finally, Donald G. Davis, Jr. (profes- sor emeritus of library history at the University of Texas at Austin) submits a succinct but intriguing view of “Interna- tional Trends in Library History,” which serves as a sort of capstone to the volume. The practice of library history is becom- ing more scholarly (and is increasingly based on primary documents) rather than merely celebratory or antiquarian.

     summary: fundamental question for innovation research is to ex- plain how innovations occur. Gallouj and Savona note that the RPC model does not account for service innovations that have no technol- ogy component, an important dimension to examine for research libraries.12 Several examples of the RPC are useful at this juncture.

     summary: Hanrong Wang, Yingqi Tang, and Carley Knight scanned reference job ads posted in C&RL News from 1966 to 2009 to track the historical development of the profession.11 Examining reference posi- tions, they calculated the number of open positions, educational background, duties and responsibilities of the position, and variations in job titles. Indeed, for- mal instructional duties appeared almost as often as reference service duties (which appeared in 98.9 percent of the ads) and were often emphasized as core responsibilities, either through prominent placement in a position title (such as “Instruction and Research Services Li- brarian” or “Reference and Instruction Librarian”) or through extended state- ments regarding teaching, pedagogy, and/or instruc- tional design.

     summary: In upcoming studies, the Library Theft Database team will continue to analyze and gather data to determine further patterns in the occurrence and handling of library theft cases. This climate of disclosure frequently extends to the active pursuit of thieves, including the willingness among libraries to press charges or to publicize the loss in an effort to recover the stolen artifact.1 Libraries have begun to engage in collaboration among themselves and with other groups, such as associations of book dealers, in producing databases and lists that are commonly disseminated online in an ef- fort to lead to the identification of stolen material and to ensure its return.2 Though library theft is being discussed more frequently as a major issue in the discipline, many elements related to theft remain poorly understood.

     summary: Although there are 12 distinct chapters, the book can be broken down (though not sequentially) into three main topics: the increased need for libraries to provide digital access to both its catalog and the materials described therein, including databases and e-books; the technological developments and challenges presented by remotely accessed resources (includ- ing user validation, mobile devices, and the integration of library materials into course-management software); and newer developments such as specifically devel- oped digital collections and social media as a means of access. Chapters 8–10 discuss newer devel- opments in access to library materials.

     summary: The final section, Obesity, Overload, and Opportunity seems both ambitious and forward-thinking, featur- ing discussions of the political nature of IL instruction, the impact to IL of sweep- ing changes to modes of communication and learning, and the use of assessment measures to identify specific areas of IL instruction in the United Kingdom that may merit revised or additional instruc- tion. Stylistically, the articles run the gamut from Gareth Johnson’s very practical, nuts-and-bolts treatment of video and film production for IL instruction to An- drew Whitworth’s fairly esoteric discus- sion of IL and “noöpolitics,” a perspective produced, according to Whitworth, when “a resource-based analysis of politics, or ‘geopolitics,’ [extends] into the sphere of information.”

     summary: As more specialized institutions began to appear and develop during the 19th century, the AAS was able to prune and weed its collections of many of the artifacts and anthropological material that it had accumulated in its earlier years. Created by printer/publisher/collector Isaiah Thomas in 1812, the AAS has re- mained pretty much what it was founded: a collection—and an extraordinary one at that—and a society, at first of amateurs of all things “American,” and later of professional scholars and researchers.

     summary: Collaboration is an important factor to consider in assessing the strength of branch campus libraries’ services, and a larger survey sample in a future study would produce viable indicators of any existing correlation between collabora- tive campus relationships and strength of research resource support. Areas of focus for future study could include how librar- ies on branch campuses alter traditional methods of library services to meet cul- tural practices, methods of collaboration between home and campus libraries, studies of the information literacy pro- grams conducted in the libraries, and the new aspects of international librarianship revealed in these environments of global- ized education services.

The present study addresses three ma- jor research questions: how and by whom are current e-reserve copyright policies developed, updated, and implemented; what are current copyright and licensing practices related to actual implementa- tion of e-reserves services; and what, if any, reactions have those policies or their implementation received by stakeholders (such as publishers and rightsholders) external to the institutions?

     summary: With 47 chapters and eight parts, this wide-ranging collection offers a varied and prolific assortment of essays related to black librarianship in America. The unifying theme of this collection is that, despite the hard work and accomplish- ments of black librarianship’s preeminent activists and scholars, such as Josey, there still remains much work to be done, “glass ceilings to be shattered, closed doors to be opened.”

Racism in the profession of librarianship continues to obstruct recruitment of black librarians to the field and their advancement in the profession.

     summary: “What Will Learners Do?” begins with an ex- planation of learning styles, includes a list of teaching methods (lecture, model- ing/demonstration, collaborative group work, and so on), and tables highlighting the advantages and drawbacks of each. Though much of the discussion is theoretical, numerous citations (many annotated) provide the instruction practitioner with an entry point into the intimidating literature on teaching theory and practice.—Timothy Hackman, University of Maryland.

     summary: This scenario begs several questions: who owns government documents that have, for one reason or another, slipped into the hands of private dealers and col- lectors? Dow cites a personal interest in the topic: after she witnessed a certain amount of acrimony between archivists and manuscript dealers, she discloses that she’s not only an archivist and archival educator, but she’s married to a manuscript dealer with strong ties to the professional dealer network.

     summary: Data collection was primarily focused on cited journals fully covered in SSCI in 2009, although some data was col- lected for journals not covered in SSCI.13 Despite criticism and challenges from Elsevier’s Scopus database, SSCI is still widely recognized as the most authori- tative citation source for social science research literature. Core journal studies appear in both the library science literature and in the journal literature of other academic disciplines.

     summary: These last two appeared as central characters in the most recent debate over faculty status for academic librarians, which played out last month around an article published in The Chronicle of Higher Education re- garding the decision to eliminate faculty appointments for new librarians at the University of Virginia and a proposal to “revoke” faculty status from librarians at East Carolina University.2 In describing the rationale behind these efforts, Karin Wittenborg, University Li- brarian at Virginia, noted that “libraries are in a time of dramatic and continuing change,” and Maureen Sullivan, the American Library Association President also serving as an organizational-de- velopment consultant to East Carolina, reminded Chronicle readers that “there is a difference between the work and role of the teaching faculty… and the work and role of librarians.”3 Few would ar- gue against either of these assertions, I The “Multihued Palette” of Academic Librarianship imagine, but it is unclear how either is related to the issue of faculty status for academic librarians, an issue that has been taken up many times in the pages of this journal.4 As Coker, vanDuinkerken, and Bales noted in our most recent entry into this discussion, the issue of the librarian’s role and status has been debated in the academy and in the profession for more than a century.5 As anyone reading their argument must conclude, the question of faculty status for librarians (whether with or without provisions for the awarding of tenure) is a complicated one.

     summary: Using these data, we will show that: our understanding of library search must be broader than article and catalog searching; analyzing and optimizing for the most frequent queries can improve the search experience for large numbers of users; and ongoing evaluation and in- cremental enhancement can help ensure library search applications make the best use of new technologies as user expecta- tions and needs evolve. In a 2008 survey of how search is implemented on library websites, Ghaphery, Teague-Rector, and Byrd observed “a wide range of ap- proaches, indicating that consolidating library search presents ongoing challeng- es.”22

     summary: Therefore, it is essential to understand image users deeper. The findings reveal the need to improve the image services offered by academic libraries and strengthen undergraduates’ information literacy with respect to image search and use. survey conducted by China Internet Network Information Center in 2009 reported that 44.7 percent of Google users in China use Google’s image retrieval service, which is only second to use of Google’s web page retrieval service.1 Image searching has clearly moved from a specialist task to an everyday infor- mation-seeking activity.2

     summary: • Staff policies are more codified while faculty policies are some- what more flexible/negotiable. The authors argued that it “would be unwise to rely on studies of tenure status and parenthood undertaken by other disciplines, since the workload and envi- ronment of academic librarianship are so often different from that of other academic disciplines.”4

Moreover, image collections are not only available from institutions.

     summary: My absolute favorite London Museum is Soane House, where the famous archi- tect Sir John Soane lived in the late 18th and earlier 19th centuries. Thus, Malcolm Jones documents in some detail how engraved border and framing motifs in printed French Books of Hours in the earlier 16th century found their way into church wood sculpture of the period in England—an interesting example of the unexpected ways in which this genre was appropriated in the early modern period.

     summary: Eleven other authors—one in private practice and the rest associated with the preservation and conservation facilities of major institutions in the United States— contributed practical essays that address varied aspects of project planning, speci- fications for equipment and specialized functions, and considerations unique to private conservation labs and those that focus on flat paper collections. Jeffrey Peachey, a conservator in private practice, addresses concepts pertinent to private book conservation labs, and Claire Hoevel provides guidance on the devel- opment of labs for paper conservation.

     summary: With the growing expectation of us- ers to access collections through online tools, Hackbart-Dean and Slomba argue that processing plans now need to ac- commodate a range of access tools and descriptive standards (MARAC21, EAD, Dublin Core, and METS). Institutions also have to adjust processing plans for item-level cataloging and metadata cre- ation to ensure digital access.

     summary: A table of the most frequently cited journals was then compiled, which was composed of journals responsible for 80 percent of all cited journal articles. Journals remained the predominant format cited, but their number increased while book citations decreased postweb.21 Smith also per- formed a pre- (1991) and postweb (2001) local analysis of theses and dissertations across disciplines.22 She too found that journal citations in the sciences remained dominant, although they decreased in use while book citations increased.

Possible bias may have been introduced because university press respondents with a larger number of title offerings may have answered differently from those who did not respond to the survey.

     summary: After a brief introduction to RDA and how it relates to FRAD, Jin provides 18 examples of brief RDA authority records, each with an explanation of how they use the FRAD concepts to describe and clarify entities and their relationships to other entities: while the structure of an RDA authority record is, at root, similar to that of an AACR2 authority record, RDA (and the FRAD structure) allows for greater levels of description and for clearer delineation of the relationships between concepts. Jin states, in her introduction, that the book is to “provide a basic explanation of the Functional Requirements for Author- ity Data (FRAD)”; she goes above and beyond this statement of principles in a clearly written, copiously illustrated, and well-organized book that truly does “demystify” FRAD and illustrates how to create authority records according to the principles thereof.

     summary: “Research is integrated into the whole fabric of modern-day society,” begins Lukenbill in writing Research in Information Studies; the second and equally important foundation for his writing is that intel- lectual theory is central to the heart of all kinds of research, including library and information science. Research is viewed as multidisciplinary, completely integrated with theoretical con- cepts, and completely a part of human life; this chapter includes a nuanced parsing of theory and research in a broad variety of “research traditions.”

     summary: A survey of 900 college stu- dents, for example, found that 40 percent of them indicated they had “some gaps” in their research skills.18 Other research, however, has shown that students with below-proficient information literacy skills levels tend to greatly overestimate their information literacy skill levels and are unable to recalibrate their self-views even after taking an information literacy test.19 Such students, because they do not recognize their deficiencies, are unlikely to seek help to improve their skills, nor are they able to recognize expertise in others.20 In other words, these students are the least likely among college students to approach a librarian for help in finding, evaluating, and using information. This paper reports the findings from the focus groups con- ducted with students who demonstrated below-proficient skills on an objective, standardized test of information literacy6 and discusses implications for designing instruction for such students as well as directions for future research.

     summary: By comparing the data between the studies, it is possible to begin to determine what types of questions asked in single- institution user studies can be accepted as descriptive of an equivalent population at other, similar institutions. This follow-up study examines whether or not findings of single institution studies are applicable to other institutions by performing an institution-to- institution comparison of the results obtained from an information-seeking behavior survey sent to education faculty at twenty research institutions.

In fact, the relative similarity of the results of students in all of the test groups suggests that well-prepared students can effectively use a variety of search tools, while poorly prepared students will likely struggle even with the best-designed tools.

     summary: This is logi- cal, since both of the editors are highly respected scholars of library leadership and management, and much of the book looks at the library leadership landscape across two continents. Hernon’s chapter on library leadership in the United States is comprehensive: he explores how the profession is at- tempting to address the need for ongoing development of leaders.

     summary: It has been six years since the Asso- ciation advanced its “Research Agenda for Scholarly Communication,” which included the call to promote research in ar- eas such as authorship, value metrics, and the adoption of successful innovations.2 As a print publication, C&RL provided a venue for disseminating the results of such research, including Malenfant’s study of scholarly communications services as an emergent component of the core respon- sibilities of liaison librarians, Nariani and Fernadez’s study of the factors influencing Endings and Beginnings authors’ decisions to publish (or to avoid publishing) in open access journals, and Walters and Linvill’s study of the characteristics of open ac- cess journals.3 C&RL will not be the first scholarly journal to move to a digital-only publish- ing model, and it will not be the first to embrace open access publishing, but it is still unusual to see a journal with the history and reputation that C&RL enjoys dive into the future of scholarly publishing with both feet.

     summary: Our study also confirms Fox’s 2007 finding that the “requirement for formal scholarship by Canadian research librarians appears to be a growing trend, and, yet, there are no commonly accepted norms for the appropriate balance between scholarship and other professional responsibilities.”27 Conclusion As researchers, we are cognizant of the limitations of the survey/questionnaire format for research studies of this nature.

     summary: Finally, there is evidence that college students believe librarians add value to the search process,17 and that, counter to expecta- tions, many students still want and even prefer face-to-face, personal help.18 One way to provide that face-to-face, personal help is through individual re- search consultations. Survey responses make it clear that many students (almost a third) already had attempted to find information on their own before their consultations and had run into various roadblocks and chal- lenges.

     summary: In the past six months I’ve had the plea- sure not only of working in a vibrant academic research library—a library that is anything but stodgy—but also of visiting, sitting, and reading in wonderful public library branches in Adams County, Pennsylvania, Worces- ter County, Maryland, and my home library system in Baltimore County, Maryland. The weakest chapters, in my opin- ion, were the ones having to do with academic libraries.

     summary: In addition to continuing to provide a leading site for the promotion and dissemination of research in academic librarianship, what opportunities might this newly-digital journal embrace to address the need for integrating the results of research dis- seminated in other venues? Moreover, he noted (quoting Robert Maynard Hutchins), there was a general lack of research available on higher education and a need, given the central role of the library on campus, for a journal that would promote research into its unique challenges, its operations, and its contributions to teaching, learning, and scholarship.1 Seventy-five years later, there are still concerns about the state of research in higher education, but there are now many venues for the dissemination of such research, including research into the academic and research library.2 Indeed, the study of core journals in Library and Information Science available in this is- sue demonstrates how far we have come since Kuhlman surveyed a field providing few opportunities for the promotion and dissemination of research in academic librarianship.

     summary: A study at a small private university underscored the important role played by databases in affecting ILL borrowing activity levels; the author determined that, from 1990 to 2000, an av- erage of 63 percent of ILL article requests originated from databases, and that the number climbed significantly during the 10-year study—from 60 percent in 1990 to 80 percent in 2000.19 Not all research has shown ILL borrowing increases as a result of increased online content, however; de- creases in document delivery were found in Spanish and French university libraries from 2000 to 2003, when full-text journal collections increased considerably.20 The purchase of new Elsevier e-journals was presumed to be responsible for a 22 per- cent decrease in ILL article requests at the University of Glasgow Library between 1998–1999 (prior to the Elsevier purchase) and 2001–2002, after the Elsevier package was purchased.21 A significant decrease in the volume of ILL borrowing of pho- tocopies was also found during a 10-year period in a college devoted to the study of criminal justice.22 Other studies suggest that the pres- ence of OpenURL link resolvers has had an effect on ILL borrowing activity. One of the oldest studies to examine the relationship between library collection size and interlibrary loan borrowing rates found a negative correlation between the two—indicating that the larger a library’s holdings, the fewer ILL borrow- ing requests there were.3 However, most researchers working on this topic found a positive correlation between library collections and ILL borrowing activity, indicating that the larger a library’s collec- tion size, the higher their ILL borrowing activity, a correlation which is perhaps counterintuitive.

     summary: Several of Cullars’ reference studies deserve special attention because of the way he recorded language data for each project. The Italian literary scholars used English-language sources less frequently.20 In Cullars’ 1992 study of the reference patterns in fine arts mono- graphs, English was the primary language of references, although sources in German and several Romance languages made up nearly 38 percent of all references.21 Two recent studies of very specific ar- eas within the humanities have reported language data that is relevant.

     summary: We invited 200 faculty members in the departments of Anthropology, Art History, Classics, English, Modern Languages, Philosophy, Religion, and History to complete a sur- vey that aimed to gather demographic data about humanities faculty at FSU and learn whether such faculty preferred print or electronic research resources, as well as more about how such faculty interact with print or electronic research resources (see Appendix A for Survey Questions). Most fundamentally, our research refutes the popular assumption that humanists have negative perceptions of electronic research materials based on an emotional attachment to print media.20 In fact, the majority of humanities faculty we studied are engaged with digital tech- nologies and are intrigued by the different advantages and opportunities offered by electronic formats.

     summary: Academic librarians are generally more likely to engage in scholarly communica- tion if they are offered tenure and faculty status.22 Such librarians tend to continue to publish even after they have been awarded tenure.23 Some librarians have reported that conducting and publish- ing research becomes habitual during the process of achieving tenure; others found that they genuinely enjoyed the process and consequentially developed an enthusiasm for research that remained even after tenure had been awarded.24 Although the ACRL provides some basic recommendations,25 “there are no clear-cut guidelines among institutions regarding what constitutes scholarship or service.”26 What types of institutional sup- port are provided to facilitate the scholarly communication prac- tices of academic librarians and archivists?

     summary: A 2007 review of studies discussing the desired character- istics of student peer mentors in higher education found the following to be the most frequently considered descriptors: communication skills (35%); supportive- ness (30%); trustworthiness (30%); ability, willingness to commit time (26%); and Undergraduates Providing Peer Reference and Instruction 165 empathy (24%).23 Many of these overlap with the qualities that students desire in a teacher, identified in a 2009 article as enthusiasm, empathy, communicating effectively, identifying important ideas, giving good examples, and connecting material to real life.24 Peer providers who bring these quali- ties are not only able to connect material to real life, but, having gained expertise and confidence in providing reference, can model these traits in delivering in- struction. The prime virtue in such student-re- ported qualitative data is that it speaks to the unique and therefore most important component of peer teaching: the affective response of students.

     summary: However, the Framework does include additional elements, including: knowledge practices involved in demonstrating understand- ing of information literacy concepts; the dispositions needed to behave as an adept learner; and some sample assignments and self-assessments that would develop understanding of threshold concepts in information literacy, or otherwise pin- point challenges for students in learning them. Information literacy threshold concepts help learners recognize and make sense of this environment, guiding them to trans- form and integrate their understanding.

     summary: The study revealed that more than half of the students correctly defined the term “Abstract” and over 75 percent understood “full text.” It was observed in the previous study that students who successfully followed the SFX links from Proquest to the citation/ abstract page of a different database were then unsuccessful in identifying the loca- tion of the full text of the article, often marked by the words “Full Text” or a PDF symbol.23

     summary: Four of the interviewees noted the value of offering students a simple, Google-like search option that will help them access the library’s resources, while three respondents believed the one-box either sends the wrong message that library research is easy, or fails to make library research easier. Of the 202 respondents who selected options from the provided list (those who did not select from the list or only gave an “Other” response were not included in the numerical analysis), the three most often selected reasons for teaching the one-box were “it’s a good way to get students to use the library’s resources” (107, 53%), “the one-box makes library research more intuitive to Google users” (95, 47%), and “it provides ‘good enough’ results” (94, 46.5%).

     summary: The study verifies that employers valued non-techni- cal skills as heavily as technical skills, and detects dissimilar emphases of data activities for data librarians and non-librarian professionals: the former on data discovery and collection, and the latter on data analysis and preservation. Two different methods of data analysis were applied to the fields of required and preferred qualifications: (1) analysis of word frequencies measured by the occurrence and time of each word in one advertisement, job advertisements of a year or other means of grouping, and (2) analysis of co-term frequencies for the cognitive structure of data librarianship based on the occurrence and time of all co-terms.

     summary: Paul Wyss cites several studies that have demonstrated over the years that faculty academic librarians do not earn equivalent salaries to those of disciplinary faculty of the same rank.23 The disparity of treatment, fair or not, between librarians with faculty status and disciplinary faculty is embedded in the structure of academic institutions. Upon review of the empirical literature on the topic, Applegate stated that, while the paucity of relevant literature made it difficult to draw conclusions regarding faculty librarians’ job satisfaction versus that of nonfaculty academic librarians, librarians with faculty status may be less satisfied in key areas.38 Bruce Kingma and Gillian M. McCombs cautioned that librarians with faculty status may be less produc- tive in the areas traditionally associated with academic librarianship because their attention is necessarily diverted to other functions inside the academy.39 Also of concern is the possibility of faculty academic librarians being con- signed to what Danielle Hoggan terms “nominal” faculty status.

     summary: The results of this research fill a gap in both the library and education literature, provide critical background data for libraries wishing to build support for undergraduate research programs, and suggest a foundation for further research into an underexplored area. Other formal initiatives that foster original undergraduate research or creative works (such as the University of Illinois’ Ethnography of the University Ini- tiative: An interinstitutional and cross-disciplinary program that fosters eth- nographic, course-based research that is archived in the campus institutional repository) http://www.eui.illinois.edu/ Undergraduate participation in such programs aligns with gains in a host of edu- cational outcomes, and it is well established in the higher education literature that undergraduate research programs are a valued and viable method of improving students’ academic experience.4 The Association of American Colleges and Universi- ties (AAC&U) includes undergraduate research programs on its list of “High-Impact Educational Practices,”5 and many academic organizations reward exemplary under- graduate research with grants and awards.6

     summary: The prevalent use of social media, despite quality concerns, has triggered a debate over whether or not the critical evaluation of social media sources should form an important part of information literacy (IL).3 As social media are becoming increasingly popular information sources, it is impor- tant to understand which social media platforms are being used to meet various kinds of information needs, and to understand what actions are being taken to evaluate the crl13-455doi:10.5860/crl.75.4.442 Undergraduates’ Use of Social Media as Information Sources 443 information from such sources. While their quality varies, social media information sources can provide information that traditional resources cannot efficiently provide.

For example, a recent electronic book (e-book) PDA study at a large academic library reported that nearly 30 percent of the service’s patrons had accessed materials for recreational, rather than research, purposes.12 Additionally, several recent print PDA and e-book PDA studies have also reported small numbers or percentages of requested or purchased materials as being nonacademic or too popular (that is having too low of a readership/content level) for their libraries’ collections.13 However, the news on PDA has been hardly all, or even predominantly, bad.

     summary: Thus, the diaries are not a per- fect record of student reading, but they capture day-to-day activity much better than a survey asking about students’ general impression of their reading activity would. Diary methods are also a common tool for studying the question of reading and technology specifically, including Tashman and Edwards’s work on active reading and the study from Thayer et al. on what kinds of reading students could best do with e-reader devices.33 Mokhtari et al. used diaries to examine how students split up their time among academic reading, leisure reading, television, and Internet use, while Huang revisited this question with a larger sample size and greater awareness of social media.34 Because reading and writing are every- day activities in which individuals engage on a regular basis, a diary study can be a very effective way to capture patterns that may not be obvious to the participants.

His focus on United States copyright law and its effects on foreign authors adds to the coherence of his work.

     summary: At the very moment that an effective framework for shared communication regarding how academic libraries are evolving to address change in the technology, publishing, and higher education environments is essential, we lack a “platform publication” to which we all might contribute and which we all might share with campus colleagues. In this environment, academic libraries have to make difficult choices about priorities and resource allocation, or reallocation.

     summary: Although currently not well-supported by academic administrators, this research shows that mentoring programs could be sustainable. Practical information from this research will guide aca- demic library practitioners in current mentoring relationships, and library leaders can extrapolate results to support planning and implementation of mentoring programs.

     summary: One early pioneer in studying library collection usage was Richard Trueswell, whose work in the 1960s identified the 80/20 rule, which was first applied to industry and warehousing, and eventually applied to libraries.7 His theory that 80 percent of the usage can be covered by 20 percent of the collection has been a standard assumption among librarians for many years. OhioLINK may be the only library consortium created because of a space problem.1 Due to the burgeoning of library print collections in the mid-1980s, the Ohio Board of Regents was presented with many requests for new or expanded library buildings.

     summary: Using typical worked examples, the students learn the descriptive elements more readily than the compositional elements, and composition, or rhetorical skills, improve through the confluence of worked examples along with other interventions.42 Improvement of those rhetorical skills appeared not to be amenable to significant change during a short exposure to worked examples. Zhu and Simon substituted worked examples for lectures and other classroom activities in physics problem-solving among college students with promising results in knowledge acquisition.21 Owen and Sweller found that students learned solutions to algebra problems, made fewer errors, and required less time to solve test problems similar to those presented to them in worked examples.22 In follow-up studies, stu- dent performances demonstrated that the use of worked examples could substitute for extended instruction and practice in solving algebra problems.23 A review of the worked example literature concluded that worked examples “promote the type of flexible transfer that educators are seeking in their classroom[s].”24 The worked examples used in mathematics and science have been described as classical worked examples.

     summary: While the scientific process produces vast amounts of research data, often these data are not archived or inventoried properly, resulting in data at risk. Francine Berman further advocates for a census of research data to plan for data preservation.22 Efforts need to be directed toward understanding nondigital, fragile research data that are vital to the future of science.

     summary: Library research needs to become much more open to critical theory as one part of the broad range of research approaches that can help us imagine the future of library practices. In the years since, despite the appearance of some substan- tive literature reviews and “thought pieces” in this journal, it seems clear that the articulation of one acceptable approach to LIS research (down to identifying specific sections expected in any research report) may have discouraged many authors from submitting ground-breaking research to College & Research Libraries.

     summary: Motivation is an important consideration for educa- tors because the extent that students are motivated impacts the degree to which they learn.34 Student engagement has been demonstrated to contribute to student learning as measured by the grades students receive, their general knowledge acquisition, and intellectual development more broadly.35 Much of the literature on autonomy support in educational psychology has stressed the importance for student motivation of providing students with autonomous choices and autonomous control over their learning.36 Assor, Kaplan, and Roth are somewhat unique in the current literature, however, in recognizing the importance of providing students with choices that are deemed by the students to be authentic. Exactly how to do this is a practical question of fundamental importance for library educators interested in increasing student learning.

     summary: Most of this historical summary reflects on public library services to adults since the beginning of the American Library Association, and the author neatly summarizes the ALA committees, divisions, and projects that have reflected on or contributed to this aspect of library work. Okobi’s book is divided in four sections, beginning with three chapters on the need for library services to adults, and the history and development of these types of services and programming.

     summary: Okobi’s book is divided in four sections, beginning with three chapters on the need for library services to adults, and the history and development of these types of services and programming. Many of these institutions were later absorbed by public library systems, and their impact on the development of library services for adults should not be ignored.

     summary: Editorial 245 When the editorial board first raised the idea of preparing a special issue of College & Research Libraries to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the Association of College & Research Libraries and its role in promoting research in the field of academic librarianship, the idea of selecting representative articles from its long history was daunting. Representing central concerns for the field such as information literacy, faculty engagement, library leadership, gender in the profession, and diversity, each of these Looking Back, and Looking Forward: 75 Years of College & Research Libraries doi:10.5860/crl.76.3.245 246 College & Research Libraries 75th Anniversary Issue studies is worth review for its impact on our understanding of enduring concerns in our field, as well as emergent ones.

     summary: It has been almost 50 years since Robert Taylor published this classic article in C&RL; yet much of what that article discussed is as fresh today as it was back then.1 As Taylor wrote, “Without doubt, the negotiation of reference questions is one of the most complex acts of human communication” (180). Taylor’s paper was chosen as the November 25, 1985, Citation Classic, with Robert Taylor himself writing the analysis.6 That an article from library science even made the list of papers to be reviewed is re- markable, given the relatively small size of our field in comparison to the sciences and social sciences.

     summary: The results seem to support the belief that the inquirer’s interaction with a library or information system has certain similarities to the negotiation process. General instruction in the use of library and information systems is presently nor- mally accomplished by tours, formal instruction, and handbooks, none of which are available when the user actually has an inquiry.

     summary: They then expanded their work to particular populations, such as graduate students and international students.9 In 2004, Doris J. Van Kampen proposed the Multidimensional Library Anxiety Scale, to be used with graduate students.10 Three recent examples show the diffusion of library anxiety research. The resonance I felt when I read about library anxiety was powerful: yes, I thought; this is what I’m seeing in my students, who seem over- whelmed by the library, in need of librarians’ help, yet reluctant to approach us.

     summary: While we considered it unlikely that composition faculty would radically revise their courses to incorporate more sessions on library use, we began sharing our findings with supportive colleagues in the English department to determine where changes could be made to acknowledge and deal with library anxiety. It was found that 75 to 85 percent of the students in these courses described their initial response to library research in terms of fear.

     summary: He notes that Paul Evan Peters, the found- ing executive director of the Coalition for Networked Information (CNI), significantly influenced his thinking for his 1988 article.3 As a mark of its influence, it is interesting to note that Lewis’s article was cited beginning in 1989, shortly after its appearance, by the late Peter Graham, who was highly respected for his deep analysis of research libraries and who called Lewis one of the best thinkers about libraries, and into the early 2000s, by the late, highly esteemed librarian and author Ross Atkinson.4 It is important to confirm that many academic libraries have, in fact, developed or contributed to the development of robust infrastructures to support research, teaching, and learning in the digital environment.

     summary: Indeed, Quinn’s critique largely foreshadows the current state of academic libraries, the preoccupation with accountability and return on investment, best represented in the ACRL’s Value of Academic Libraries initiative, in particular.29 The ongoing narrative in our libraries continues to be “all about production and consump- The McDonaldization of Academic Libraries… 331 tion”;30 ironically, many libraries now feature chain coffee shops such as Starbucks, further blurring the lines between the fast food industry and the library.31 In the current climate of accountability and austerity, libraries have become veritably “obsess[ed] with quantitative assessment, student satisfaction, outcomes, and consumerist attitudes towards learning. We can become bookstores in an effort to beat bookstores, or we can work to build libraries and librarianship around the concept of shared social space where real people engage in real struggle for meaning and purpose in a landscape of increasingly rapid human movement and social change.69 Ritzer speculates that the McDonaldization of society is inexorable.70 If Quinn’s “The McDonaldization of Academic Libraries?” does indeed foreshadow the contin- ued commodification of academic libraries and the dismantling of the public sphere, Ritzer may be correct.

Can library liaisons play a key role in revitalizing human-to-human interactions by engaging individuals col- lectively in problem solving, creativity, and the production of new knowledge and awareness?

     summary: However, there has been a lack of research examining the role of the library catalog as a tool for e-book discovery and use in PDA. Consequently, there is ample room for deeply studying the role of metadata in the discovery, selection, and acquisition of PDA e-books, as well as for the analysis of the interaction between catalogs, tools for federated search or web-scale discovery, vendor platforms, and library website guides as methods for e-book discovery and access.14 Other studies with a broader scope involving various institutions give us a clearer idea of the challenges libraries face in promoting e-book collections.

     summary: In Learning Strategies and Learning Styles, Schmeck makes a distinction between a strategy and style in that learning strategies of the individual are a blend of cognitive skills allowing individuals to adapt to the situation and styles are inherent to the individual based on genetics and previous experiences.4 Learning styles can be differentiated into three distinct aspects: cognitive (information processes), affective (motivation), and physiological (biological and environmental).5 In a historical sum- marization of learning styles, Raynor and Riding date the development of learning styles theory back to the 1940s.6 As research and learning style models grew, many models could be categorized into three different approaches: cognitive-centered, personality-centered, and activity-centered.7 Through the late 1970s, the majority of the research on learning styles was focused on cognitive phenomena.8 More recently, learning styles have been categorized physiologically, as the primary senses: auditory, visual, and kinesthetic/tactile.9 A survey of the most cited authors related to learning styles showed that Kolb, Dunn and Dunn, Honey and Mumford, Gregorc, Schmeck, and Vermunt were among the top thirty most cited authors.10 In a recent survey of learning styles and the literature, Coffield et al. The instrument used for this research was the Index of Learning Styles (ILS) questionnaire created by doi:10.5860/crl.76.4.450 crl14-571 Learning Style Dimensions and Professional Characteristics of Academic Librarians 451 Felder and Soloman and based on the Felder-Silverman learning styles model.

Methodology To study how students use library print books, how they use e-books, and how they anticipate using any potential library e-book collections, the core of our study involves a survey of the student body.

     summary: The researchers used a similar technique to Ping Li’s past research with tutorial mapping, in which established library tutorials in the sciences were analyzed for their inclusion of information literacy standards.52 The librarians worked through the tutorial and sectioned it off according to the classifications listed above, including text, visual, audio, and kinesthetic. User D summed up her expectations from library tutorials the best when she said, “Don’t put any filler stuff on there.

     summary: Paracopyright includes efforts related to licensing and technological protection measures (chapter 6) undertaken by rights holders and vendors who fear that copyright law protections are insufficient. By deepening this understanding, the reader can consider more clearly the ramifications of the borderless digital domain, technological neutrality, and harmonization of international copyright laws (chapter 7).

     summary: The authors argue that much of what has been proven to work in terms of increasing learning may be counterintuitive to learners and that learners may need to teach themselves new skills to be successful. This very informative handbook for the “science of successful learning” is the fruit of eleven cognitive scientists working in concert as part of an “Applying Cognitive Psychology to Enhance Education Practice” research grant, which studied the impact of the latest developments in the field of cognitive psychology as applied to education over a ten-year period.

     summary: Five questions asked whether internationalization was included in the library’s mission statement, the extent to which internationalization is a priority in strategic planning, whether the library has a discrete plan for library internationalization, whether the library has a committee charged wholly or in part with internationalization activities, and whether the library is included in campuswide internationalization committees. This included aspects such as expanding international university partnerships and collaboration with international libraries as well as expanding research initiatives, de- veloping international research centers, and growing international digitization projects.

     summary: This study investigated the skills, knowledge, abilities or dispositions that are most valued and respected by academic librarians, and determined how these qualities might, or might not, be associated with generational membership. There are a number of reports on generational diversity and ageism in librarianship, ably summarized by Lancaster in 2003, Hutley and Solomon in 2004, Gordon in 2006, Martin in 2006, and Chu in 2009.1 Empirical research concern- ing generational differences in the workplace does exist within the general manage- ment literature, as examined by Twenge in 2010, but rigorous empirical research is not available on how intergenerational colleagues actually relate to one another in the academic library work setting.2 Should we assume that the intergenerational differences represented in the management literature automatically apply to academic librarians?

     summary: In the face of these challenges, the off-site storage facilities used by many libraries for circulating collections are increasingly used for the storage of special collections materials. The findings of two recent studies on fire suppression in high-density off-site storage facilities that were presented at an ALA panel in 2011 described specific risks to boxed archival materials and books, made recommendations as to shelving special collection materials, and offered equipment strategies to minimize damage in the event of a fire.24 Methodology

     summary: Such challenges drive the need for academic libraries to assess programs and plan for change in a comprehensive and strategic fashion to align with the mission of their institution. The core elements include customer satisfaction, human capital devel- opment, continuous improvement, involvement and participation, common vision, entrepreneurial spirit, organizational culture, and empowerment.19 Organization development is not foreign to academic libraries.

     summary: This evolution in humanities scholarship emerging from the rise of digital humanities and deeper interdisciplinary orientations for humanities scholars prompt us to ask critical questions about the digital collections that frequently play a significant role in these new scholarly methodolo- gies: specifically, how effectively are digital collections meeting the research needs of scholars, and how should digital collections evolve to sustain and strengthen their value to digital humanities research? The need for a collaborative research community around digital humanities research was another major theme that emerged from the responses.

     summary: White stresses that the motivation for this book was to focus attention on liaison librarianship as a critical role in higher education and research libraries, one that has not been adequately ad- dressed in the literature on library assessment. Edited by Daniel C. Mack and Gary W. White, Associate Deans at University of Maryland Libraries, the book contains chapters written by both library administrators and liaison librarians with experience in assessment activities.

     summary: For liaison librarians looking to expand their current duties, there are chapters on important although less frequent aspects of academic work such as assisting with university accreditation. Many chapters draw on examples from case studies in the literature or from the authors’ experiences, including the unique attributes of the community college setting, to give readers concrete examples of how this variability in liaison work presents itself.

     summary: John Budd adds that academic librarians practice a style of librarianship that may require more than the basic MLS degree, leading him to ponder whether students interested in a career in academic libraries should take coursework specific to these skills for an entry-level job.5 Reports and anecdotal observations like these paint a bleak picture of the academic library job market and in turn motivated the researchers to update studies conducted by Reser and Schuneman, who analyzed academic library positions using job an- nouncements advertised in 1988, and Beile and Adams, who used job advertisements from 1996, by examining position announcements from 2011.6 This cross-sectional technique allows for a three-point comparison of academic library jobs over a 23-year period. Literature Review The state of the academic library job market and required skills and qualifications associated with academic library positions have been the topic of numerous investi- gations, and a search for studies using position announcements as an indication of the job market yielded a variety of reports in the professional literature.

     summary: Using call number ranges, her study focused on total and unique circulation data for different parts of her library’s holdings that served specific undergraduate courses.8 While circulation statistics represent how materials owned by libraries have been used, usage data could also include ILL data, which represent materials not owned but in demand. The aforementioned studies used either only circulation data to measure library col- lection use or ILL data to measure the collection balance or the quality of ILL titles.

     summary: Librarians sought to determine whether the services, resources, and spaces the libraries provided to graduate students effectively aligned with and supported their academic preferences, needs, and behaviors. Review of Selected Literature While large ethnographic studies have been conducted in libraries since the landmark Rochester study,3 few of these studies have adopted a holistic, multimethod approach to studying graduate student populations.4 Most studies of graduate students have fo- cused on specific themes, such as their research needs, how they use the library, how to design a better library website, or how to build a more attractive institutional repository.5 The type of ideal study space described by graduate students differed from the social spaces that interested undergraduates in the FSU study of undergradu- ate academic work.32 Graduate students generally were critical of what they perceived to be a “party” atmosphere perpetuated by undergraduates that resulted in social, sometimes noisy, and crowded spaces in the main library, often referred to as “Club Stroz.”

     summary: This study examines how students are using academic library spaces and the role these spaces are playing in the campus community. Other researchers have found that, while in the library, students are likely to engage in both academic and social pursuits, often simultaneously.11 Academic work remains their primary activity, however; Foster found that academic vs. recreational activities happened at a ratio of 6:1 in the library, while Suarez observed that, even with their flirting, chatting, and other social endeavours, students in the library are engaged in academic work most of the time.12 Students have repeatedly indicated that they want library spaces to support both academic and social activities, and these researchers conclude that the library succeeds in fulfilling these disparate roles.

     summary: What was insightful was the need to present coded library comments in a way that Getting More Value from the LibQUAL+® Survey 799 showcased both the importance of coding categories along demographic lines, as well as the extent to which coded comments were positive or negative in tone. Findings Since the purpose of this paper is not to communicate the results of the qualitative analysis of the McMaster LibQUAL+ survey per se, but rather to communicate the merit of conducting a qualitative analysis and using important-satisfaction matrices to assess library patron comments, only a subset of high-level findings from the McMaster case study are reported here as a means to showcase the extent to which a qualitative analysis of LibQUAL+ comments and importance-satisfaction matrices are useful.

     summary: At the University of Nevada—Reno, the library provides a maker space not simply to prototype new inventions, but also to visualize abstract mathematical concepts and to engage students in learning in a new way.16 If we focus on business spin-offs as the primary measure of academic innovation, we ignore the basic fact that the overarching mission of academic libraries, and academia in general, is not to emulate or stimulate commerce, but to foster learning and understanding. Innovation of the type prized by Reuters can certainly be found in libraries, and our contributions to this type of innovation can be seen in the work being done at places like North Carolina State University’s James B. Hunt, Jr. Library.12 Public libraries also support this sort of innovation, as in the case of the Alexandria Co-Working Network, which brings together the expertise of Arizona State University’s Entrepreneurship and Innovation Group and the community access provided by public libraries.13 Support- ing economic advancement is also one of the strategic focus areas for Chicago Public Library.14 When speaking to academic leaders or our colleagues, however, we would argue that innovation in academic libraries must be considered in many more ways and, frankly, in more appropriate ways, if we are to have a true sense of the library as a component of the university’s innovation agenda.

     summary: The benefits of such a model for libraries are many: it is less expensive than purchasing e-book titles individually, it includes a broad range of titles by many different publishers covering many different subjects, it allows for simultaneous access by multiple users, it eliminates the need to purchase print copies of a book, and it allows for remote 24/7 access to content. ”45 Library Processes and Workflows When e-book titles disappear, other library processes and workflows are also affected.

     summary: Literature Review Interest in understanding student use of academic libraries is widespread, as is the use of ethnographic and other qualitative methods to investigate student library use. It is important to understand where the needs of commuter students align with those of students who live in cam- pus housing—and where they differ—so that librarians, administrators, and faculty can effectively learn from research into student library use at residential institutions.

     summary: The program’s transformation from a traditional one-on-one, single, long-term mentoring relationship to something more flexible and varied reflects a trend among library mentoring programs, and the University of Kansas Libraries, like many others, recognize that there is still much to discover about the best structure of a mentoring program at an academic library. Perhaps the most notable trend is that all of the interviewees val- ued their mentoring programs for the personal benefits they provided, which suggests that library mentoring programs often have positive professional effects for librarians, regardless of whether they are participating as mentees, mentors, or program facilitators.

     summary: learning goals and content presentation, in- teractions, assessment and measurement, instructional media and tools, and learner support systems and services.8 Mery, Newby, and Peng believe that information lit- eracy can be taught effectively through a well-designed online course, which requires a thoughtful course design, the capacity to create online learning modules, and the ability to train qualified teaching assistants to help students.9 Held draws attention to some “pillars of effective information literacy instruction” that must be considered when designing library instruction services, including collaboration with faculty, as- sessment of the library instruction, student responses to online library instruction, and attention to instructional design so that online tutorials are effective and keep student engagement in mind.10 Michel summarizes the advantages and disadvantages of the use of asynchronous online tutorials in library instruction: online tutorials are accessible anytime, anywhere, allowing students or faculty to learn library skills at their own pace and saving librar- ians’ instruction time.11 Barr reflects on library instruction at Harvard University’s science libraries and notes the challenge of online library instruction given the dynamic nature of sci- ence research, which necessitates frequent updating of information, keeping up with changing courses and content, and understanding new technologies.18 Barsky, Read, and Greenwood focus on library instruction for undergraduate engineering students, arguing that in-person instruction is essential and must be combined with detailed course pages tailored to each class.19 They stress the importance of reaching students in the first two years of their studies to effectively teach them about library resources specifically for engineers.

     summary: Oakleaf provides an overview of a number of studies in which transcripts show that most (more than 80%) of questions received at the reference desk involve at least some element of instruction.40 Duncan and Gerrard found that more than 45 percent of chat reference questions were related to research.41 These findings reinforce stud- ies of the research process conducted by Kulhthau, which reveal that “students need considerable guidance and intervention throughout the research process to construct a personal understanding. Continued decreases in the number and complexity of reference questions have all but ended the debate; many academic libraries no longer staff service points with professional librar- ians.

     summary: The last big rounds of program name changes came in the late 1990s and again a decade ago. We believe there is something in a name, and that it is time to consider what we might do to explore what that something might be through research into professional education, changes in the faculty workforce, and the values that students and in-service professionals embrace when they choose to study and pursue a career in libraries and librarianship Let us begin by acknowledging, as Juliet does, that names, by themselves, do not define a thing.

     summary: Even when the students do use Facebook to ask a reference question, the response might be a refer- ral to a librarian or to a virtual reference service, or they do not receive a sufficiently timely response.15 With these referrals and nonresponses, the students quickly were discouraged from using library Facebook pages for reference assistance. The most common metrics of library Facebook outreach are the total number of library Facebook page likes (a measure of audience reach), the number of posts, and the associated feedback in the form of likes and comments on the posts (measures of engagement).17 How many likes or fans a library page has is affected by how long the page has been in existence, page awareness, and quantity and quality of the content.

     summary: From this point on in, this article adopts the following definitions: • Library building will refer to the physical library building; • Library place will refer to users’ phenomenological “sense of place” in a library; that is, how users react to and behave in library buildings; and • Library space will refer to how users occupy library buildings, in this case in the form of a detailed seating survey. The approach is informed by Scott Bennett’s model of library design, which posits a shift from a ‘book-centered’ to a technology supported ‘learning centered’ paradigm of library space.

     summary: An online survey was developed and sent to employers to gauge perceptions of information literacy skills of college graduates and the use of the innovation of digital badges to represent competencies that students have accumulated. This lack of transfer connotes a need for translation of these skills from the academic setting to the workplace.1 Previous research on information literacy in the workplace shows that the skills valued by the American Library Association (ALA) are not exactly the same as the skills valued in the workplace.2 Being information literate is a critical factor to success in the information age, and it is necessary to include information literacy skills valued by employers into library instruction curricula for students.

     summary: This denotes a strong working relationship between the library and these important user groups, which Adler stated was key to developing LGBTQ collections that meet the needs of users.36 In years without funding, or when development funds were spent, titles of interest to LGBTQ studies were sent to subject librarians with a request to purchase, a practice recommended by Clarke.37 Librarian requests are normally accepted by other librarians at Concordia. It should be noted that there are no plans to establish a master’s degree in LGBTQ or sexuality studies at Concordia University, but there is sufficient graduate student interest and faculty expertise in LGBTQ studies to justify a collection assessment for this level of research.

     summary: Once a context for information transfer is established, the book goes on to describe the ways that the information infrastructure, from information organization in libraries to knowledge diffusion online, has changed since the dawn of the digital era and how we, as practitioners, can better navigate and interpret this infrastructure. The questions focus on issues that impact the entire information com- munity: governance, copyright, advocacy, and policy in an increasingly deep pool of digital information.

Of particular interest to this re- viewer personally were case studies on the Georgia LGBTQ Archives Project, a collaborative group with archivists from several different regional archives that work together to place archival material from the Georgia LGBTQ community in the appropriate repository; on the Tim Kaine Email Project, which involved the processing of 1.3 million e-mails from the administration of Gov. Tim Kaine; and “Hardware for SoftPoems,” which focuses on the acquisition of an author whose poems combine analog and digital elements, and considers the appraisal of vintage computer equipment and its implication for the field as a whole.

     summary: The mean number of IL sessions taught for the FYS was 1.6 and the mode was 1. Student Survey II: Determining Student Behavior The timing of the distribution of the second student survey resulted in a response rate of only 62 percent (n = 237) of FYS students. Conclusion The SMCM AiA team’s inquiry into collaboration and IL student learning produced results that led to more nuanced questions about the nature of faculty-librarian teach- ing relationships and expectations of first-year students.

     summary: Student Learning—Comparing Final Paper Results To compare the performance of TRAIL students to their peers who had not received TRAIL instruction, additional papers from non-TRAIL students with library instruc- tion and non-TRAIL students without library instruction were assessed using the same rubric applied to TRAIL student papers. The indirect evidence of TRAIL students’ reflections would provide insight into their attitudes and knowledge about the research process, while final papers, a form of direct evidence, would show the extent to which TRAIL students used suitable sources and developed arguments and counterarguments supported with evidence.

     summary: What is more, following Jiao and Onwuegbuzie’s recommendations, hiring Aboriginal staff in the library (even if through student positions) might also further alleviate student library anxiety and, if librarians, able to transform the libraries to make them more relevant.31 There are a number of ways in which the PLAS program contributed to the univer- sity as well as the university constituencies’ understanding of the value of the library. This paper provides background on the initiative and the associated action research indicating a creative approach to engaging Aboriginal students.

     summary: It was this significant, campus-wide interest in student research that shaped the guiding question for the present study: whether and how do typical in-class research literacy sessions help students to learn and to grow as researchers.4 To address this question, the team de- cided to conduct a mixed-methods study, including both a quantitative performance assessment using citation analysis and a qualitative element in which students were asked to reflect on their research process and learning. What we will do in the future: • Our campus is beginning the search for a new library director, and as part of this process librarians will meet with groups of faculty and students to discuss a range of questions related to library services, such as, “What should be the role of Grinnell’s libraries in supporting, for instance, student research, study spaces, events, and employment?

     summary: The initial research question asked if psychology students who participate in a sequence of courses that include library instruction at the general education (mainly in first- and second-year writing courses) and discipline levels receive higher grades. As the data spans 10 years of ENGL 1010 assignments, there is variation among the type of library instruction students received, though all students received some hands-on research time in the library classroom with a librarian present.

     summary: Assignment Checklist Scoring Results Assignments that required or allowed students to demonstrate information literacy skills were evaluated on the inclusion of instructions from a total of eight categories: specifying number of sources students were expected to find, use, and cite; specify- ing the types of sources that were acceptable; requiring that students know how to evaluate sources for bias and credibility; requiring source variety to ensure students know how to get information from different types of sources; requiring intermediary steps in the research process; distinguishing between direct and indirect quotations; specifying a documentation style; and specifying requirements about the currency of information used. Assignment checklist data showed that very few of the submitted assignment directions specified that students should evaluate sources for credibility or bias (7 percent), and fewer than half of the assignments submitted detailed the number of sources students should use, the types of sources acceptable for students to cite, or a particular citation style that students should employ.

     summary: Methods give librarians the tools with which to answer research questions central both to curiosity and to daily practice, and having an ample toolbox with which to do that work is important. A number of textbooks offer a straightforward introduction to a variety of research methods currently employed in Library and Information Science, as does the American Library Association’s Office for Research and Statistics.7 While this suggests that our field has embraced a broad spectrum of methods in the design of scholarly research, one of the authors recalls a number of questions regarding his decision to employ a qualitative research design in a study published in this journal as recently as 2008, and representation of a variety of perspectives on “what counts as research” continues to present a challenge in the composition of editorial boards and peer reviewer pools in leading journals in our field.8 Concerns about methodology, thus, are complementary to epistemological debates about what counts as knowledge in our field.

In chapter 3, the authors focus, in satisfying depth, on the effort to develop a “lesson study approach” to library instruction, one that “is an itera- tive process comprising five steps that can be repeated as needed” (25).

     summary: But mere increases in the number of articles published in both journals cannot entirely explain the increases in NOAA references, because articles published in the journals had to be brought to the attention of NOAA authors, be sufficiently relevant to their work, and be of sufficient quality for them to be referenced. Finally, the amounts of total references and references by age could be used to justify academic library journal collections, set thresholds for journal subscription vs. interlibrary loan, and identify less-used journals for potential cancellation.

      flesch: 48
     summary: Recognizing the paucity of quantitative and qualitative data from North American educational institutions that have pursued open access policies, the authors devised a survey to collect information on the characteristics of these institutions, as well as the elements of the open access policies, the methods of promoting these policies, faculty concerns about the poli- cies, and how those concerns have been addressed. The data collected through survey results from fifty-one institutions can inform the strategic decisions being made by other institutions considering an open access policy and illustrates the essential roles that academic libraries can play in the development and passage of open access policies.

     summary: Furthermore, the study investigates The Status of Diversity Initiatives at Liberal Arts College Libraries 523 the role the larger institution plays in library diversity work. A 1999 study conducted by Li outlines specific barriers facing liberal arts college libraries, such as lack of staff time and financial resources; he further notes that careful planning can provide for successful diversity programs.28 Winston and Li survey liberal arts college library directors, focusing specifically on diversity efforts involving recruiting and retaining staff, workplace environment, collec- tions, and services, with a special emphasis on the role of library diversity committees and college diversity officers.29 In 2005, Li conducted a follow-up study of 166 liberal arts college libraries; his findings suggest that diversity programs at liberal arts college libraries can flourish provided the library engages in careful long-term planning.

     summary: Data information literacy—the skills needed to understand, use, manage, share, work with, and produce data—reflects the confluence of data skills with information literacy competencies. Through the consid- eration of the University of Oslo’s Department of Geosciences’ Meteorol- ogy Section, the research found that data information literacy skills were relevant to the work of meteorology students.

     summary: Greg Tananbaum assessed the progress of these funds in SPARC’s 2014 “North American Campus-Based Open Access Funds: A Five-Year Progress Report” and found that their success can be measured in part by the more than $2 mil- lion that have been committed to fund nearly 4,000 research articles.5 Campus OA fund managers offered qualitative insights that the funds “underscore an institution’s com- mitment to the principles behind Open Access” and have enabled campuses to support authors who might not have published in open access journals otherwise, but the study did not consider how authors evaluate and interact with the funds. When asked to write in suggestions regarding how open access publishing costs should be covered, opinions varied.

     summary: Overall, faculty librarians reported more positive perceptions of faculty status than nonfaculty librarians. Although these questions were worded too differently to be compared by t-test, when asked if faculty status—or the lack thereof—was a deciding factor in accepting their current position, faculty librarians showed average agreement of 3.83 compared to the 2.73 average nonfaculty response.

Whether analyzing vast amounts of genomic data in search of DNA mutations, man- aging healthcare delivery through the use of integrated health information systems, or using medical imaging data to engineer customized surgical interventions and devices, the demand for information services presses even the most resourceful organizations.

     summary: ”30 Faculty Source Requirements Studies looking at the effect of faculty requirements on the types of resources students are allowed to use in their papers are rare; even studies that take the concept into ac- count, such as Gilbert, are somewhat unusual.31 Davis tracked bibliographies of eco- nomics students over several years and found that neither librarian instruction nor the combination of instruction and an instructor’s encouragement to use scholarly sources had a significant effect on source use.32 However, in the fourth year of the analyses, there was a sharp increase in citations to scholarly journal articles when the instructor required at least five such sources. Survey Instrument The principal goals of the study were to determine what resources students consulted when they started their research for an assigned paper and what resources provided the majority of the information they actually used in their papers.

     summary: Academic libraries, seeking to demonstrate their relevance in a performance-funding environment, will find little guidance on how to appropriately gather data or communicate impact to university administrators.4 Librarians working in academic libraries are eager to engage in initiatives supporting university priorities, even those that do not directly involve the library. This study examined the predictive relationship between library use by individual students and their retention status in university settings.

     summary: Though the challenges students face when selecting an interesting and manageable research topic are well known to librarians and instructors, little information literacy research has been conducted that systematically analyzes student research topics. ”19 Both of the tools used in this study (an evaluative rubric and qualitative analysis software) enable us to analyze the text of student research topics to establish meaning: in the case of the rubric, we can determine student research skill development; and, in the case of the qualitative software ATLAS.ti, we can discover thematic categories and subjects that students choose to write about.

       words: 5449
      flesch: 31
     summary: Applying the RPV framework, we recommend that, when a library’s offerings decline in relevance and create a call for changes, library leadership advocate service innovation and encourage library em- ployees to take risks and experiment. We highlight the fact that the service mission of academic libraries is in alignment with service innovation and propose that aca- demic libraries respond to disruption by accelerating service innovation.

     summary: I would recommend this title to newer librarians who are learning what kind of instructor they want to be and still have anxiety about public speaking and who may lack confidence in their teaching. Creating a script and practicing lines may help newer librarians, but in the long run creating a persona or a character that is markedly different from the personality of the librarian may feel inauthentic to some students and could inhibit any further interactions with the librarian or in the library.

     summary: From the educational perspective, just as many chapter authors note that academic libraries have been much slower to embrace the self-publishing revolution. The fourth chapter also addresses the issue of academics, as the author “presents reasons why academic libraries should consider collecting self-published books to meet the immediate and especially long-term needs of their users.”

     summary: Conceptual Framework The conceptual framework for this study is built upon Astin’s well-established Input- Environment-Output model, which hypothesizes that the background characteristics of college students (inputs) and relevant aspects of the college experience (environ- ment) influence outcomes.11 Adhering to this model, controls for inputs (such as sex, racial/ethnic identity, and precollege ratings of academic skills) and additional college experiences (such as campus climate, academic college of enrollment) were included as separate blocks in the models predicting students’ academic outcomes to isolate their contributions from the focal independent variables—students’ use of academic libraries in five broad areas. Results Academic Engagement The first model regressing students’ academic engagement on their precollege demo- graphics, collegiate experiences, and academic library use explained 35.7 percent of the variance in students’ academic engagement (table 2).

     summary: What is not fully addressed within academic library spaces is the top of Bloom’s Taxonomy pyramid: creating new knowledge. The value of an academic library as a physical space for studying and learning has been much studied, but the value of academic library space for fostering creative and innovative thinking has received considerably less attention.11 Some researchers have approached fostering creativity and innovation in academic libraries through play12 or through makerspaces.13 The physical environment where service is delivered performs multiple functions: as a package (establishing expectations), a facilitator (aiding performance), a socializer (enhancing interactions), and a differentiator (demarcating spaces).14

     summary: In the 324 range, it was found that many book titles ended with date ranges that citing documents tended to omit: the book Tory and Whig the struggle in the constituencies, 1701–1715 was cited only 7 times under its full title but 12 times as Tory and Whig the struggle in the constituencies. The Association of Research Libraries SPEC Kit 337: Print Retention Deci- sion Making noted that “Citation counts are often used as a criterion” in decisions on deselection; but no specific questions on the topic were asked in the survey of American academic libraries—and the technique barely rates a mention in the summary of re- sults—while the use of circulation data is noted in nearly all of the reports.13 A number of studies on the use of citation data in collection management relates to the analysis of citations by staff or students of a specific institution,14 and these provide useful insights into the value of the collection in specific cases; but the absence of a standard method- ology makes comparisons between these studies difficult.15 Detailed local studies of this kind are labor-intensive; while they can reveal rich insights into the use of library collections by scholars, they are essentially retrospective and not well adapted to the needs of a deselection exercise, which needs to be able to make determinations about all of the books in a collection, most of which will not have been cited by local authors.

     summary: Further, in 1994, Sayles examined the collection development policies of twenty-seven college libraries and noted that the policies were often contradictory with regard to textbooks, stressing the importance of collecting based on student need while dismissing textbooks as inappropriate for the collection.6 In 2005, Hsieh and Runner conducted a survey and collection development policy analysis that probed into libraries’ practices and policies surrounding the acquisition of textbooks and leisure reading materials.7 Sixty-one percent of respondents reported 68 College & Research Libraries January 2017 that their library had specific “no textbooks” policies, citing budgetary concerns as the primary reason for avoiding the practice and, second, that purchasing textbooks was the students’ responsibility.8 Pilot projects initiated after 2005 in response to these articles and the GAO report have focused on developing textbook reserve collections and services. While broad applicability of the model warrants further investigation, academic libraries may be bet- ter able to meet patron needs by implementing open textbook reserves.

Studies have also shown that students do not appear to understand the information quality issues concerning Internet information sources and may lack the information literacy skills to make good choices concerning the use of these sources.

     summary: Before I leave scholarly journals, let me also note that licensing these materials is now not only a very complex economic negotiation with publishers, but must also incorporate many other important non-economic contractual terms dealing with top- ics ranging from reader privacy to usage reporting5 and statistics, archiving policies, accessibility, and even the growing dangers of malware being vectored through third party advertising that may be hosted on publisher sites. The linkage between journal article open access and institutional repository agendas has been a mistake, and one that has resounded to the detriment of both agendas.

     summary: Because journal publishers enjoy a government-created monopoly over the con- tent of their journals based on copyright law and because digital publishing enjoys economies of scale that has allowed a small number of publishers to centralize control of many of the top titles in several fields, the dominant journal publishers could be considered natural monopolies whose prices have to be regulated for the common good. Just as workers can address their dilemma of collective action by forming unions to bargain with employers, universities could join together in a united coalition to negotiate nationwide or worldwide con- tracts with journal publishers.

     summary: This metareview of CRMS work found the process to be extremely reliable, ultimately exceeding a 99 percent accuracy rate.24 The CRMS’s Findings The CRMS process has been extremely important for a number of reasons. To help decision makers understand the role and extent of copyright renewal, Ringer’s study sought to determine the frequency with which copyright holders renewed their copyrights for a variety of types of creative works.

     summary: A solid professional performance on the part of academic librarians at present calls for adequate knowledge about copyright law, not only for the development of their own tasks without infringing the law, but also to guide and provide pertinent advice for library users (faculty and students). ost informational resources that make up university library collections are copyrighted works, meaning that a good proportion of the everyday activity of these libraries comes into contact with copyright law.

     summary: The two most-cited articles in JPR ever are data articles, and there are four of them among the top ten.6 Indeed, for each of the ten years 2006–15, a data article is always found and among the top five-cited articles, usually at the top of the list. While International Studies Quarterly, the flagship journal of ISA, maintains its own site for replication data, other ISA journals such as International Studies Perspectives encourage their authors to post their data on the Dataverse.

     summary: The University of Michigan Library became involved in the university’s novel funding program, MCubed, which supported innova- tive interdisciplinary research on campus, primarily by funding student assistants to work on research projects. Furthermore, the extent to which the librarians were involved in the projects, and the range of responsibilities they took on, suggest to others possibilities for involvement and collaboration in research projects.

     summary: Since it is impossible to know exactly what students do or do not know, it is best to err on the side of clarity and define the terms when necessary.6 There are only a handful of studies that identify information literacy terms least understood by students, with the goal of either improving communication between library staff and students or examining whether library terminology interferes with student understanding. It is recommended that librarians work with faculty to make them aware of students’ lack of understanding of information literacy terms and that librarians also reinforce their meaning during library instruction and in one-on-one consultations.

     summary: In a literature review on graduate students and library instruction, Barbara Blummer notes that there have been a large variety of instructional efforts aimed at graduate students including faculty-librarian partnerships, seminars and workshops, and for-credit courses.10 Expanding Support for Graduate Students: 299 Library instruction for graduate students has been shown to increase both skill level and confidence, regardless of the mode of delivery.11 Workshops specifically targeting the unique needs of graduate students increase proficiency and help students feel more effective and efficient in their information seeking.12 Involving a librarian can also help to reduce graduate student attrition and improve degree completion rates.13 Librar- ians can assist graduate students in determining how to begin and proceed through the literature research process, alleviating the associated anxiety many students ex- perience along the way.14 In doing this, librarians establish meaningful relationships with those they serve and become a trusted partner, consequently fulfilling students’ affective needs, such as those tied to successful socialization into a discipline, that are commonly overlooked within the traditional structure of the academy. Promotion and Marketing to Graduate Students In the focus group discussions about improvements to the workshop, a significant trend emerged concerning the need for the library to develop better communication strategies with graduate students.

     summary: It is possible that flipped instruction has greater impact on short-term rather than long- term learning gains, though more research is needed to explain these relationships. Eduardo Rivera found that students in a flipped seven-week library workshop had higher post-test scores than those in a traditional workshop.16 However, the widespread applicability of these findings are uncertain, as these workshops were completed over different semesters and student scores were not compared using tests of statistical significance.

     summary: Reimagining the Academic Library provides both a succinct overview of the external forces that have been driving change in academic libraries for more than the past two decades as well as proposed steps academic library leaders and librarians should take to address these forces and help complete the transition to a relevant, digital 21st-century academic library. Every academic library will have members who have different levels of comfort with change, but one of the strengths of this book is that, in presenting short summaries of the various forces that have been impacting academic libraries, Lewis provides historical background and context for librarians who may not be as familiar with how the economic factors in scholarly communication and how the transition to digital content is changing our collections.

     summary: Though the history of library digital projects is only a few decades old, it lays a great deal of responsibility on librarians and archivists to continue this work. By the author’s own ambitious admission, the book serves to provide a full suite of instruments: a history of digital libraries; a review of the current state of the field; strategies for planning and managing digital projects; and step-by-step instructions for the creation of a digital library project plan.

     summary: Two Studies of ILL Data to Inform Collection Development Decisions Part 1: Comparison of ILL Requests to Later Usage of the Same Titles as Subscriptions A. Methods At the University of Memphis (UofM), a metropolitan research university with around 20,000 students, we have a natural experiment available to assess the assumption that ILL requests will correlate to later use of the same titles after subscriptions are begun. In addition to comparing ILL requests and SFTARs for each title, we also assigned each title a subject category and compared ILL requests and SFTARs for each cat- egory.

     summary: However, the number of OA papers published in the journals remains small compared to their total number of papers,9 and adoption rates vary strongly across different disciplines.10 Since the APC model does not confront journals with funding difficulties and fi- nancial complexities, it might enjoy more stability and a higher chance of survival.11 However, the model involves a heavy financial burden on the author who is likely to run into major difficulties while paying for publication in any journal.12 For instance, she has to pay $3,000 and $500–$5,000 for each paper to be published in Elsevier and Springer journals, respectively. In the next stage, OA papers were separated from non-OA ones using “open access” label.

     summary: — David McMenemy1 Introduction Higher education institutions (HEIs) are aggregating and analyzing student data, in- formation, and the digital trails they leave in information systems to better understand student behaviors. Third, the ability to sur- veil students also allows institutions and content vendors to expand the use of digital rights management technologies; moreover, it creates conditions where institutions and content vendors may use student data as a bartering chip in contract negotiations.

     summary: By asking interviewees to assume the roles of vignette characters, vignettes can help desensitize sensitive or difficult topics (such as sexual aggression or mental illness), distance interviewees from them, and reduce the influence of socially desirable responses. According to Schoenberg and Ravdal, the storytelling nature of vignettes is relaxing, pleasant, and interesting and may reduce feelings of being overburdened by the inter- view process.17 Hughes and Huby perused the literature and identified the following practical advantages of vignettes:18 • Vignettes are less expensive and can be conducted more quickly than obser- vational studies.

Pew reported that 11 percent of cell-phone owning teens aged 13–17 were using some type of anonymous-sharing app in 2015.28 One anonymous app targeted specifically at high school students, Afterschool, was on 22,300 campuses in December 2015.29 Teenagers who are regularly interacting on anonymous platforms and seeking help from their peers will be the next generation of academic library users.

     summary: In doing so, this case study and its authors illustrate the shared responsibility for student learning in information literacy reflected in the As- sociation of College and Research Libraries in ACRL’s Framework for Information Literacy for Higher Education (hereafter ACRL Framework), which calls for librarians, teaching faculty, and administrators to collaborate more extensively: to redesign instruction sessions, assignments, courses, and even curricula; to connect information literacy with student success initiatives; to collaborate on pedagogical research and involve students themselves in that research; and to create wider conversations about student learning, the scholarship of teaching and learning, and the assessment of learning on local campuses and beyond.3 Further, our research shows that a trilateral approach to information literacy in- creases efficacy and a sense of shared responsibility for librarians, writing center staff, and course instructors in support of student research in ways traditional bilateral approaches do not. While we certainly un- derstand that our collaboration should increase the quality of student work, and we envision student writing as an individual and holistic process rather than a sum of its parts, administrators like numbers, and numbers can be useful.

     summary: In cases where journal publishers were affiliated with an academic institution, the analysts classified those as university presses. Introduction While the open access (OA) movement is growing throughout academia and has gained traction in some disciplines, there is still skepticism on the part of research- ers who question the quality of OA publishing and may associate OA journals with “predatory” journals.

     summary: Librarians’ perception, on the other hand, is commonly that publishers deliberately delay e-book publications to ensure they sell copies in print.26 Part of this discrepancy might be that publishers use language that is not always clear to librarians. Paley Library has received a significant number of e-book records since adopting the e-preferred profile in 2014.

     summary: In fact, early exploration of open review by Kathleen Fitzpatrick and Avi Santo outlines the need for open review to be formed by each community adopting it.5 However, for purposes of this editorial, a functional definition is that OPR allows for the disclosure of author and referee identities to one another, and supports the publication of referee reports and author responses on the open web. * Emily Ford is Assistant Professor and Urban & Public Affairs Librarian at Portland State University Branford Price Millar Library, e-mail: Moreover, librarians providing instruction may consider utilizing OPR publications and processes as article examples in instruction, or even develop instructional activities engaging with OPR.

     summary: In the downstream, GIS data services can be developed around spatial data organization, metadata creation, online spatial data visualization, or data dissemination via a spatial data portal. Many academic libraries have found that GIS Day is an excellent opportunity to highlight GIS applications across disciplines, raise awareness of library GIS services, and make connections.18 Previous literature not only describes library GIS services by scope, but also by depth of service.19 The first level of GIS service was described as serving users with little experience, where a basic mapping tool is introduced.

The National Center for Education Statistics reported that, in fall 2012, there were 26,606 librarians at 3,172 responding U.S. academic libraries (out of 3,793 U.S. academic libraries surveyed).26 These data indicate that less than 10 percent of USALs published a peer-reviewed journal article in one of the major LIS journals studied during a five-year period.

     summary: Solo library residents can find their residencies to be overwhelming and isolat- ing experiences, especially in the case of diversity library residents. These guidelines expected host institutions to report diversity efforts, offer residencies that were a minimum of one year in length with the possibility of a one-year extension, not consider the residency as a probationary employment period, be large enough to manage residencies effectively, include an educational component for residents, and offer residents salaries that were equivalent to starting salaries for other beginning professionals.34 Evaluation of Academic Library Residency Programs 477 Affirmative Action and Residency Programs Starting in the 1980s, library residency programs were shaped by affirmative action policies that aimed to increase the number of librarians of color in academic libraries.

     summary: Iriberri and Leroy25 reviewed the literature and identified the following benefits of online communities for individuals: • Information exchange—access a to a wide variety of members, information, and experiences • Social support—opportunity to provide/receive support, build and maintain social ties, and bond socially and generate social action • Social interaction—opportunity to meet people and build friendships • Time and location flexibility—flexible access to the community, flexible time management, and spatial and temporal independence • Permanency—ability to edit responses, ability to archive and search messages, ability to establish permanent social presence through photographs and text, and ability to control one’s level of participation in the community Researchers in different disciplines have studied online communities with differ- ent emphases—in computer science, technology media and mechanisms is the focus; in sociology, physical versus virtual community comparisons have attracted most researchers; in management, the emphasis is on the value of user-generated content; in psychology, relationship and attachment among community members have been extensively investigated; in information systems, researchers have concentrated on development, implementations, outcomes, and applications of online communities.26 Multiple theories have also been adopted to examine online communities, such as technology acceptance model (TAM), trust theory, social cognitive theory, social capital theory, social learning theory, social network theory, commitment theory, and social influence theory.27 The area of online community research most relevant to our study is the exploration of determinants for online community success. 512 Developing Online Communities for Librarian Researchers: A Case Study Lili Luo, Marie Kennedy, Kristine Brancolini, and Michael Stephens* This study examines the role of online communities in connecting and sup- porting librarian researchers, through the analysis of member activities in the online community for academic librarians that attended the 2014 Institute for Research Design in Librarianship (IRDL).

     summary: Researchers surveyed professional librarians employed in ARL (Association of Research Libraries) member institutions and found that women were statistically less likely than their male counterparts to engage in salary negotiations; and, when they did negotiate, they were less successful than men. In national discussions, salary negotiation and wage discrepancy trends are well studied, particularly from a gender perspective.4 Such trends are of particular interest in academic libraries, as evidenced by the yearly ARL salary survey, which studies equity within the profession.

     summary: 336 Provosts’ Perceptions of Academic Library Value and Preferences for Communication: A National Study Adam Murray and Ashley Ireland* While many studies have been conducted under the auspices of cal- culating academic library value, there are no large-scale studies into the perceptions that college or university provosts have of library value, nor are there studies into how provosts prefer library value data to be communicated. As discussed in an earlier study of provosts conducted by Beverly Lynch et al., library deans often struggle to communicate library value, particularly in an age where the academic library’s rhetorical place as the “heart of the university” is no longer sufficient to garner additional resources—positions, funding, facilities—for the library.6 Being able to speak directly to library involve- ment in, and impact on, critical university initiatives such as enrollment, retention, student success, faculty research productivity, and accreditation is at the heart of the Association of College & Research Libraries’ Value of Academic Libraries and Assessment in Action initiatives.7 Academic librarians have conducted many studies using new methodologies and new data collection techniques to calculate the value of academic libraries.

     summary: Scholarly communities have traditionally recognized innovative and valued discoveries through peer review—peer reviewed articles, scholarly mono- graphs, competitive grants, etc. Some of the issue with peer review may be the concerns around “peer”—that those chosen to evaluate may be more concerned with protecting their own reputation or research agenda, or that they may be entrenched in the status quo and thus more likely to dismiss any discovery or research that threatens it.

     summary: These data show that, overall, ELLs students scored slightly lower than their non-ELL counterparts and that ELLs, on the average, found the LOOP more useful than their non- ELL colleagues. Librarians who begin researching the term will find that ELL is an umbrella term that not only includes ESL students and language minority students (the two specific populations that are identified in this study), but also includes other groups like non-native English speakers, international students, and generation 1.5 students.

     summary: Limitations Question 7 of our survey, “[i]f yes, please specify the timeframe for phased retirement of classroom playback equipment support,” is ambiguously worded: although our results seem to indicate that respondents interpreted this question correctly, it’s pos- sible that some were confused about whether we were asking about the timeframe for phasing out classroom playback equipment (what we intended) or just support for this equipment. For all of these reasons, it is clear that library video collections will continue to have an important role to play in academia.

     summary: While the book is written as advice for minority librarians, the personal stories can also help people who are not minorities become more attuned to the pressures and expectations facing their colleagues and other staff members of color. The stories illustrate that, instead presenting the graying of the profession as a crisis, it is an opportunity for the profession to step up efforts to recruit, retain, and promote minority librarians so that they can fill the ranks of retiring management and leader- ship.—Jenny S. Bossaller, University of Missouri New Directions for Special Collections: An Anthology of Practice.

     summary: To give a clear background for this emerging skill set, the investigators of this study will discuss: definitions, the development of data curation, data science in other fields, data services, and data curation education. The work of those organizations makes the need for and development of a standardization framework, as well as core competencies in data curation education, evident.43 Goodsett and Koziura reviewed shifts from a traditional library curriculum to an information science cur- riculum circa 2005, which emphasized data and technology.44 Palmer noted increased discussions of best practices for data curation in Library and Information Science (LIS) programs and continuing education since 2010.45 Varvel, Elin, and Palmer conducted a study of various programs in 2012, revealing the curriculum in LIS education for data professionals had “been attached great importance.

     summary: This finding supports studies on millennials, a generation used to a wealth of in- formation but lacking advanced searching skills, who found it difficult to search the 542 College & Research Libraries May 2018 library’s databases because they were used to the ease and friendliness of Internet searching.53 In their study about troublesome concepts in information literacy, Hofer, Townsend, and Brunetti describe how students made explicit comparisons between libraries and Google that reflect their clear preference for the efficiency and user- friendliness of the search engine and their perception of the library resources as arcane.54 Regardless of the difficulties they encountered, students who participated in the study were aware of the importance of acquiring information literacy skills and get- ting to know the information resources available to them; they acknowledged their responsibility to develop their information skills. This study extends the literature on the subject by bringing together current views and opinions of the three populations involved to present a more comprehensive view of the challenges confronted by academia regarding teaching and student acquisition of information literacy skills.

     summary: This hierarchy only includes research evidence and is arranged in descend- ing order of the evidence’s methodological soundness. The gap between research and practice is so concerning that the 2016 Annual Conference of the Association of Library and Information Science Education dedicated its prestigious President’s Panel to address this issue.18 Researchers have increasingly called for more endeavors to explore how to gradually bridge the research-practice gap in librarianship.19 Another related barrier to EBLIP is that librarians lack competencies for critically ap- praising research evidence and applying it to practice.20

     summary: The research designs of Soria et al. are more robust than other studies examining bivariate correlations between students’ use of libraries and success outcomes because they take into consideration factors that might also bear weight on student outcomes (such as demographic variables). The nearest variable we had to capture the physical benefits of academic libraries in our study was students’ use of workstations, although it would be far more preferable to use variables such as library entrance data or Wi-Fi location data to more effectively measure the impact of the physical attributes of libraries on student outcomes.

     summary: But when it comes to the idea that articles published in Open Access journals are of lower quality than those published in subscription-based journals, it is faculty who express the strongest agreement.27 Finally, graduate students agree more strongly than both faculty28 and postdoctoral research- ers/others29 that the amount of an article processing charge reflects the quality of the journal. But these two subject areas differ somewhat when it comes to the idea that articles published in Open Access journals are of lower quality than those published in subscription-based journals, with those from social science agreeing slightly more with this statement than those from arts/humanities.31 Open Access Scenarios Respondents were asked to imagine a future in which open access with APC payment was the dominant publishing model.

     summary: Ippoliti and Gammons present an engaging examination of using user-centered design to plan library instruction programs. To address this evolution of library instruction, the authors of User-Centered Design for First Year Library Instruction Programs argue that the student and his or her needs must take center stage when designing library instruction programs.

     summary: If the library truly is a “sanctuary” for students with ASD, better understanding and, thus, better services for these students could help support them as college students in general. The American Psychiatric Association (APA) lists some of these common characteristics as communication deficits, dependence on routines, and showing sensitivity to change.8 Further, individuals on the autism spectrum might display difficulty making eye con- tact, lack of tone or correct pitch in speech patterns, difficulty in auditory, visual, or intellectual processing, high anxiety, challenges in interpreting senses of humor and figures of speech, and general difficulties with social interaction.9 Anxiety and exhaus- tion is heightened when these individuals constantly work to model their behavior to reflect that which is expected in typical communication, such as forcing eye contact or struggling to manage hand gestures, body language, or speech patterns.10 As the prevalence in ASD diagnoses increases, so does the prevalence of individuals with ASD entering into institutes of higher education.11 Though these students face many challenges, they also display many strengths in the higher education environ- ment.12 The literature reflects a trend of increasing awareness and acceptance of students with ASD on college campuses.13 Many educational supports are in place to assist college students with disabilities including those with ASD.

     summary: Identifying ways to assess these integrated abilities will challenge librarians and campus partners to take an integrated approach to information literacy and information literacy assessment. While the previous study examined the information literacy skills and possible predic- tors of information literacy skills among first-year students who had not yet declared a major, this study focuses on teacher education students in junior-level courses.

     summary: Carol Myers-Scotton, a linguist writing in the 1990s about research in code-switching, summarizes Gumperz’s characterization of CS as the use of language codes as a type of “social strategy” and extends it to include not only changing languages for content, but speakers using it to frame discourse to show social mean- ings like solidarity or power relations.5 Similarly, in the data for this paper, the author will discuss how languages are used strategically for different kinds of information including normal situational and demographic contexts like language choice at home as an expression of cultural identity. As the CS data suggest, our libraries are not monolingual spaces, so making sure that printers can print in different scripts (and in general having technology capable of supporting users’ linguistic preferences), as well as having welcome signage in other languages are steps that libraries can take to make non-English speakers feel more included when using the library as a space for studying or meeting with classmates.

     summary: To conclude the experience, library staff assisted teaching staff in organizing a miniconference hosted in the library at which student research teams presented their research findings, providing a “safe” environment for them to practice presentation and academic communication skills and gain an understanding of how skills in marketing, media, design, and event planning can contribute to the dissemination of scholarly work and the building of professional profiles. Library staff and students working in partnership on these activities enhanced student learning through the creation and publishing of an open access journal, PAM Review: Energy Science and Technology,31 and the inclusion of scholarly communication concepts and skills in the course.

     summary: Ringer used the total number of book registrations listed in the FY1932 Annual Report for Class A (57,065) (see table 6) as her number of registrations, and the total number of renewals from the July 1958 through June 1959 CCEs (3,942).39 From these sources, Ringer determined the renewal rate for Class A materials was 7 percent.40 As Wilkin noted, those copyrights include thousands of nonbook materials.41 This study determined that it is likely that the Copyright Office deposited book registrations in the pamphlet volume, making the range of 10,820–13,460 a more accurate reflection of all books pub- lished for 1932, regardless of their importance.

     summary: Escalating cost pressures, in addition to concerns about intellectual property owner- ship, have spurred resistance against the markets and institutions of academic publish- 796 College & Research Libraries September 2018 ing from faculty and other university stakeholders.44 Examples of this resistance include faculty boycotts of Elsevier (http://www.thecostofknowledge.com), cancellations of big deal bundles with large publishers and “flipping” journals from publisher affiliation to independent open access.45 Despite these initiatives, journal costs continue to rise above inflation rates, and profit margins for large publishers remain substantially higher than most other industries.46 Scholars need journals to conduct their research and to teach students, so the demand curve for academic journals will be difficult to shift. Access to academic journals is essential for scholars to be aware of existing research and to disseminate their own findings.2 Fei Shu is a Professor at Chinese Academy of Science and Education Evaluation (CASSE), Hangzhou Dianzi University and is an Associated Researcher at École de bibliothéconomie et des sciences de l’information, Université de Montréal, e-mail: fei.shu28@gmail.com; Philippe Mongeon is a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Center for Science and Technology Studies (CWTS), Leiden University, e-mail: p.mongeon@cwts.

     summary: But, according to Ms. Martin, the problem of collecting transdisciplinarity research is seen most acutely in the selec- tion process. In part two of the text, Ms. Martin moves from an examination of the historic development of transdisciplinarity to how librarians today, specifically academic librarians, may be impacted as more scholars adopt a transdisciplinary approach to their work.

     summary: The study of phenomenology requires the researcher to understand the world, not as it is observed, but rather as it is experienced.4 The application of lived experience research is visible in such disciplines as psychology, sociology, social work, public health, education, and among researchers seeking to understand human experience in a manner that centers and acknowledges every aspect of a subject’s life and identity.5 Boylorn argues that the utility of lived experience research is that “separate life experiences can resemble and respond to larger public and social themes, creating space for storytelling, interpreta- tion, and meaning-making. We can apply lived experience research to the study of academic librarians who self-identify as persons of color as a way of understanding the human experience of being a person of color navigating a predominantly white profession.

     summary: While the salary reports that ARL publishes annually are highly informative, this raw racial wage gap may be misleading when other factors affecting it, unrelated to race, are not accounted for.39 The terms raw wage gap and adjusted wage gap are used frequently throughout this pa- per to describe wage differences between minorities and nonminorities. However, in recent years, little research has been done regarding the racial wage gap in ARL libraries.

     summary: A study of university students in the United States found a connection between IL and user satisfaction of the library.23 Students with more advanced library skills found themselves more satisfied with the library and its services. The results of this study indicate that, compared with UT, PKU students on the whole expressed higher ratings in many areas toward the user education programs provided by their respective library, and they also had a more positive view about the professional competence of the user education (reference services) librarians.

     summary: Staff time is valuable and finite, and, although the Google system performed functionally, the increasing importance and popularity of collaborative work spaces should encourage libraries to select room reservation systems that function automatically to enforce policies and procedures. Additionally, the design process should be undertaken with professional planners and architects and be completed with the understanding of the growing importance of communal working spaces to users and students.10 Also, in keeping with the forward-thinking trend of increased library digitization, room reservation systems should be available online and easily navigable via the main library homepage.

     summary: The increased amount of time that instruction librarians have spent working with online students has sparked conversa- tion about the sustainability of this level of librarian involvement. The activities that the librarian was expected to perform were murky, and the teaching faculty at times had different expectations from those of the librarian.9 Drawing from different research studies, Hoffman and Ramin establish a set of best practices for interacting with online students: creating a library module open to each online student, posting the librarian’s contact information in the course, posting in a single library- specific discussion board, posting information proactively, and including visuals in discus- sion board posts.10 Kvenild and colleagues surveyed a range of librarians at an open forum of two professional conferences about the most effective communication habits of librarians in embedded courses and found similar anecdotal advice.

     summary: Correlation between Student Completion and Overall Marks There is a weak to moderate positive correlation between students’ final mark for the unit and the number of modules students completed. Carroll adopted the flipped classroom pedagogy with a group of health science students by developing online modules for students to complete prior to attending the class, with the intention of increasing student retention of information literacy skills.14 Online delivery of information literacy instruction is not constrained by the limits of a 50-minute one-shot class, and thus it offers greater scope for student skill development.

     summary: Advance a streamlined, programmatic methodology for collecting citation data from the Web of Science database; and • Develop an automated or semiautomated process for reconciling faculty citation data to the local library holdings data. In a 2009 review of citation analysis studies, Allen Ashman suggests that future methodological approaches to citation studies will soon evolve to become deeper, more precise, and involve huge data sets—all incurring less effort by the researcher.5 Ashman was correct; these methods have arrived and are waiting for li- brarians to take advantage of them.

     summary: The right of librarians to engage in research and scholarship within academic libraries has been acknowledged by library associations both within and outside Canada7 and national organizations such as the Canadian Association of University Teachers (CAUT) and American As- sociation of University Professors (AAUP).8 Research and scholarship are typically required of academic librarians employed in ARL member libraries seeking tenure or continuing appointment.9 This line of inquiry examines to what extent academic librarians employed at Canadian universities have academic freedom with respect to the right to conduct research and scholarship and to pursue unrestricted lines of inquiry in their scholar- ship.

     summary: Stieg also noted that citation studies “can only analyze what is actually cited,” which is unlikely to be everything that was used, and mentions that citation studies “cannot show relative importance among sources.”51 A Google-like single search box is one of the defin- ing features of web scale discovery tools, promising access to content from disparate source databases via a preharvested central index.2 However, in many cases, this single search box continues to serve as one option among many that libraries provide.

     summary: Headings are one of several techniques developers can use to make a page navigable for screen reader users. The WebAIM screen- reader survey reports on common methods, such as headings, that screen reader users use to navigate.29 Making it possible to navigate with features more commonly known by screen- reader users is likely to be helpful, particularly on essential pages such as library homepages.

     summary: The social model of disability is a foundational concept in disability studies, created by disability activists in the 1960s and 1970s and given a name by British scholar Mike Oliver in 1983.37 The social model of disability views disability as a form of social oppression, like racism or sexism. Based on a theoretical framework used in disability studies, this study is situated within the context of existing research on the issues encountered by employees with disabilities in other work environments.

     summary: How do they get better? Organizations and individuals alike can’t evolve if they don’t learn from their mis- takes. He articulates five disciplines through which we can view academic libraries: Personal Mastery Senge asserts that “organizations learn only through individuals who learn.7” Given that the mission of academic libraries is to provide access to information, contribute to the educational and research missions of their parent institutions, and preserve information, libraries depend on the expertise of their librarians and staff.

     summary: For example, chapter 1: “The Governance and Administration of the Art and Design Library” and chapter 7: “Developing Digital Collections,” although written by individuals close to if not in art libraries, perhaps reveal that some aspects of and procedures in librarianship are universal. “Knowledge Creation” is a newly added section (one chapter from this part is an updated version of what ap- peared in the “Materials and Collection Management” section of the first edition) that explores the art library and art librarianship within the context of digital art history, digital humanities, and scholarly communication.

     summary: The book covers a range of topics including understanding the fundamentals of reflective prac- tice, initiating reflective practice, using a journal in reflective practices, reflecting with colleagues, and reflecting in the classroom. In her recent pub- lication, Reale acknowledges that there is an abundance of detailed books describing reflective practice; however, her work is unique because it is tailored specifically to col- lege librarians.

Heritage groups want their material (archives, websites, and the like) for their own ends, and those often fly in the face of stability, continuity, and preservation.

     summary: The importance of the academic library’s engagement with its Leading the Academic Library in Strategic Engagement with Stakeholders 321 stakeholders derives from the body of research of A. Parasuraman, who argued that customers will look elsewhere for their service needs to be met if service does not meet the minimum level of their zone of tolerance.13 However, the role of university library directors in ensuring their libraries are engaging with all stakeholders in a strategic way is less well understood. Fewer studies examine the role of university library directors in ensuring that their libraries are engaging with stakeholders.

     summary: Articles speak about creative library outreach events, but there is a gap in the literature regarding more systematic approaches to multiple outreach events, how those events inform and build upon each other, and how the total body of library outreach events provides value to the library’s mission. One approach to solving the lack of intentionality in outreach programs is already used effectively in library instruction programs: curriculum mapping.

Students participated in the study by completing self-reported surveys before and after a semester-long read- ing engagement program.

     summary: Students Lead the Library’s sixteen chapters are ar- ranged into five sections, each representing a different way that students can lead: as employees, as curators, as ambassadors, as library leaders, and as library designers, with one slightly off-theme section in the middle focused on “library as client” (that is, as the beneficiary of student projects). The introduction by editors Sara Arnold- Garza and Carissa Tomlinson of Towson University, whose A-LIST Program features in chapter 2, provides a very readable summary of the context and theory behind their choice of topic, followed by a useful breakdown of the benefits of student leadership for both students and libraries, and how each is represented by the case studies offered therein.

     summary: Albatross Press was founded by an unlikely trio of seasoned European publishing professionals: Christian Wegner, who had been dismissed as the managing editor of Tauchnitz a year before; John Holroyd Reece, a British publisher of German Jewish descent, owner of Pegasus Press in Paris; and Kurt Enoch, the owner of a small Jewish Hamburg publishing firm. Opposing political forces, however, tried to suppress supposedly subservient titles, especially those writ- ten by Jewish authors.

     summary: The present study aims to address this gap by exploring role and responsibility changes as experienced by librarians in Canada’s 15 research-intensive universities (U15).1 This article presents the results of a survey designed to meet the following objectives: identify librarians’ new and emerging roles, gauge confidence levels of librarians in new roles, identify librarians’ training needs, measure librarians’ job satisfaction relative to new roles, and report on librarians’ perceived impact of their roles on the academic enterprise. He further expands on this work when he delves into the factors that led to the emphasis on UX and its benefits and challenges.39 As librarians shift from collecting, organizing, and preserving materials to creating, shar- ing, disseminating, and curating knowledge, new roles related to scholarly communication are emerging.

     summary: In light of the uncertainties recounted above, and owing to the fact that no one has yet looked into the scholarly impact of PDA books, it would seem worthwhile to examine whether books provided by vendors or publishers via approval plans or e-book packages, purchased by librarians via firm ordering, or acquired via PDA/DDA programs produce a greater schol- arly impact. As well, given the uncertainty surrounding the various types of academic library patrons as purchasers of scholarly works, it would also seem worthwhile to examine whether PDA books acquired by the various types of patrons are of commensurate interest to scholars.

The authors, three faculty librarians at UT (liaisons for engineering, health and human services, and nursing) developed and distributed a survey to UT students with the aim of answering the following research questions: • Are there differences in characteristics among students who do or do not use library reference services?

     summary: Editors Tammy Nickelson Dearie, Michael Meth, and Elaine L. Westbrooks, all 2014 UCLA Fellows and library leaders, were inspired by the program director to “collect our experiences and stories in case study format so that others in academic libraries could learn how we approached and solved problems” (ix). Only fourteen people were selected for the 2014 cohort of the UCLA Senior Fellows program, a three-week-long immersive program for academic library leaders; but, with the publication of Academic Library Management: Case Studies, everyone can now benefit from the lessons learned through the first-hand experiences collected in this deceptively slim volume.

     summary: Wendi Arant Kaspar The past couple of years have seen high level discussions and concerted efforts in ACRL on open peer review, as a more inclusive and transparent process for assessing research and best practice. Reviewers: It is hard to say when the idea of open peer review at C&RL, ACRL’s flagship journal, was initially hatched.

     summary: While librarians tend to think of teaching and research separately, in research groups the two are happening in con- cert; faculty are training their students to become researchers. In this sense, research groups are not just a work space but also a peda- gogical space that provides an experiential learning environment, which complements the instruction that students receive in classroom settings.

     summary: The first was based on level of faculty OER engagement based on three combined categories: low engagement through awareness activities (such as joining a listserv, participating in professional development activities, or requesting access to review an existing OER text) (n = 18, 12.0%), moderate engagement through adoption or adapting existing OER resources for primary or supplemental use (n = 65, 42.0%), or high engagement through building/sharing new OER (n = 71, 46.0%). For most community college libraries, the idea that new staffing and resources are going to be made available simply to support OER roles is naïve.

     summary: If yes, why (familiarity, ease of access, or other reasons)? Have you noticed that students encounter difficulties in finding library materials? Do you prefer freely available internet resources in your teaching over library resources? One music professor giving many private instrumental lessons remarked that: there are etudes that I use every semester for the duration [of a student’s program], books that we constantly refer to, and then as I want them to branch out into other styles, we may do three or four weeks of etudes out of one book that we use from the library and then another book—that is when I use more library materials.

     summary: As this literature review will show, research tentatively suggests that finances, field of study, and personal benefits (including tenure incentives) may motivate OA authors. For example, the altruistic goals of “Free Access” and “Audience Accessibility” most frequently motivated biomedical authors at the Altruism or Self-Interest? 487 University of North Carolina and Duke University.10 A third study also explored biomedical publishing and found that, instead of discipline, a major source of differences in OA uptake was the authors’ “past knowledge-disclosure practices,” such as in commercial patents versus open-source software.11 Our study hoped to clarify both the prevalence of the various motives for OA authors and the extent of disciplinary differences.

     summary: The flexibility offered by the Framework can be a good thing, of course, offering librarians the freedom to reimagine information literacy instruction in an almost limitless variety of ways. In terms of implementing the Framework with students, several interviewees mentioned using the frames to develop learning outcomes for information literacy instruction.

     summary: We performed a broad review of the literature to identify a suitable method for analyzing the authority of student sources, eventually settling on and making modest modifications to a faceted taxonomy developed by Chris Leeder, Karen Markey, and Elizabeth Yakel in 2012.3 To say that corporately authored, self-published works by nonprofit organizations (subfacet combination 3C4A5C) at 6.8 percent narrowly edged out similar works by both commercial entities (subfacet combina- tion 3C4A5B) at 6.2 percent, and government entities (subfacet combination 3C4A5E) at 5.3 percent provides a somewhat clearer picture of student source selection; moreover, it provides us with an easy and value-neutral means of describing subtly distinct types of material. Use of Academic Materials The results of the pilot offered some encouragement for information professionals interested in promoting the use of academic materials, particularly peer-reviewed sources.

     summary: The first chapter is a short, general introduction by the editors discussing the history of librarianship as a profession, with a focus on the evolution of library services as technology has become increasingly embedded into daily life. Information Services to Diverse Populations is designed to provide a foundational understanding of diversity issues for LIS graduate students, but it can also serve as an important resource for current library professionals who may not have had an opportunity to study diversity and social justice issues.

     summary: The purpose of Mary Francis’ book is to make a persuasive case in favor of bringing fun into library instruction in an academic setting and to provide a structured approach for doing so that is rooted in the ACRL Threshold Concepts. As several chapter authors point out, new buildings must take on the challenge of planning not just for the present but also for the future.

     summary: Chapter 2 breaks down what the author means when she talks about “fun” as an instructional element, offers supporting arguments in favor of fun as an intentional part of instructional design, and introduces the reader to the three kinds of instructional fun she intends to discuss: humor, games, and group work. The book is a pragmatic-minded, approachable volume designed to introduce readers to the benefits of including fun as an element in instructional design and the theories underlying fun as a motivational tool, as well as provide a set of example lesson plans that integrate fun and specifically address the ACRL Threshold Concepts.

     summary: The next two chapters, chapters 4 and 5, present first the classroom teachers’ perspective on how to integrate information literacy instruction (and the librarians’ collaboration) into the classroom culture, then the librarians’ perspective on working with teaching faculty successfully and integrating into their learning communities. Book Reviews 999 With the growing focus on student engagement, reten- tion, and success in the academy, recent scholarship in librarianship has paid increasing attention to learner- centered teaching practices and how they might improve learning outcomes for information literacy instruction.

     summary: Recent literature explores diversity in librarianship through different lens such as reinforcing the importance of diversity, examining the experiences and observations of racial microaggressions, and promoting diversity through the implementation of a library diversity plan.21 However, there is little current literature that addresses the recruitment and retention practices of diverse academic librarians. Objectives This systematic review provides a review of all Canadian and American practices that enhance diversity recruitment and retention in academic libraries.

     summary: It is a nice idea with a couple of major caveats: the first being the standard tyranny of the alphabet (which anyone with a last name beginning with a letter in the last half of the alphabet can probably provide numerous examples of why this is an issue; and the second being the systems and conventions that have been set up to publish, discover and acknowledge published information perpetuate the first author preference with all oth- ers being relegated to “et al.” Marušić, et al. did a systematic review of authorship practices across disciplines. • Set clear standards for authorship • Provide expectations for corresponding authors • Commit to the use of the contributor roles taxonomy • Require authors to adopt ORCID IDs and other identifiers We applaud the efforts to codify best practices for publication authorship and feel con- fident that these steps will positively affect research integrity.

The organization of the book is logical and easy to follow; it begins with a longitudinal look at data librarianship, including the origins of data libraries and data archives in the 1960s and 1970s, fol- lowed by an examination of drivers that have shaped the field over the decades.

     summary: While academic libraries have focused on ways to enhance the global literacy of the students they serve as well as meet the needs of international students, providing diverse perspectives from various states in the global community is also important. The primary reason hits close to home—my 16-year-old daughter is going to be heading off on student cultural exchange in a few months—to Thailand.

     summary: Martin, the Florence Borchert Bartling Professor of Sociology at the University of Chicago, undergirds his discussion of qualitative social sciences research methods with wide-ranging examples from the literature of the discipline, as he champions rigor in the work of social science research with humor and some snark. It does, however, lay a solid foundation for rigorous analytical thinking in social sciences research while offering a sound, and ultimately time-saving, approach to producing quality research, presented in such a way as to serve as an enjoyable starting-off point for relative newcomers to the discipline.

     summary: Just as higher education is being torn down and rebuilt by various forces, academic libraries are be- ing transformed—and the roles that academic librarians take on, however they may be titled, must be flexible enough to adapt to these changes to continue to meet their mission. There are a lot of significant drivers affecting higher education and academic libraries but there is also a lot of noise—loud and insistent demands for attention or action that may or may not be within the scope of our mission.

     summary: Editorial Innovation, Disruption and Sense-making Innovation, specifically innovation in information technology and computing systems, has, in my mind, changed the world more quickly than any other type of innovation we've seen. One of the most beneficial aspects of information technology is not just the access to in- formation itself but the fact that it gives everyone a voice (provided they have the access in terms of infrastructure and a political climate that allows civil liberties).

     summary: As a result of the polarizing nature of this debate, many people have come to view references to a gender wage gap with a learned sense of either bitter injustice or decided skepticism—effectively hearing only what they want to from reports about gender wage gap statistics. Those who side with the idea that there is a gender wage gap are quick to respond to the adjusted wage gap argument by referencing the fact that, although adjusted wage gap models substantially reduce the pay gap between men and women, they still often show a sizable and unexplained difference in pay.

     summary: Along with the fresh inquiry into information literacy has come excavation of “other” literacies that, depending on context, ex- ist alongside or within information literacy, such as visual literacy, media literacy, and digital literacy. Digital Literacy Unpacked, edited by Katharine Reedy and Jo Parker, is such a work; it presents a multifaceted view of digital literacy today that enhances our understanding of the value and potential of digital literacy in higher education and in the culture at large.

     summary: However, as a steward of a scholarly journal, as an author of professional publications, and as an educator of information literacy and scholarly methods, I do have some thoughts I would like to share about what is happening with university presses, the impact on higher education, and on knowledge dissemination. FIGURE 1 Knowledge Tug of War Witnessing this tension as well as the various news stories about university presses (from closures and budget reductions to restructuring where it seems almost commonplace now that the University Press is moving under the library), it prompts me to ask what the purpose of the scholarly press is.

     summary: Students whose identities higher education has traditionally marginalized may face cultural barriers in higher education, which has implications for students’ academic engagement and sense of belonging.17 Despite the prevalence of research addressing the relationship between academic outcomes and race/ethnicity and social class in the higher education literature, similar research is glaringly absent from the LIS literature, an omission that seems particularly striking in relation to scholarship about information literacy and student success. Students demonstrate their information literacy through literacy events, such as research assignments, situated within a specific cultural context,27 in which students must know “the codes used by the community and the customs and conventions in play”28 and “non-conforming students are [viewed as] ‘rejects.’”29

     summary: Conclusion This paper originated as an exploration of the relation between journal downloads and journal citations. In the long run, if download statistics are to be a credible and reliable tool for estimating usage, it seems that it would be advisable for libraries to develop a uniform interface for downloading articles from all publishers and to maintain their own records of journal downloads, which they would share as public information.

     summary: Namely, respondents indicated that a lack of resources, the utility of assessment data on campus, and organizational tensions had a negative impact upon their ability to use information literacy assessment data to legitimize themselves as educators. The Utility of Information Literacy Assessment Data Another challenge to using information literacy assessment data to confer legitimacy was the actual utility of the data itself; namely, the meaningfulness of the data both in terms of their value for personal practice and professional identity, as well as for improving status and agency within the library and institution.

     summary: Author Charles Cole’s understanding of human consciousness is built foundationally upon the work of evolutionary psychologist Merlin Donald, who visualized the development of human cognition in four phases, with three transitions. Cole’s narrative in the first part of the book recounts Donald’s model of human cognition, categorizing episodic, mimetic, mythic, and theoretic phases of cognition.

     summary: A promi- nent series of studies by Hernon and his colleagues used job posting analysis, interviews, and the Delphi method to identify attributes of directors in major research libraries in North America.20 Emotional intelligence became a focused area in later studies.21 Lewis reviewed what competencies were highly valued at the executive level in academic libraries; he found that there is a universality of leadership competencies across professional fields.22 Le’s study of library leaders identified five leader qualities.23 Martin surveyed how followers described positive leaders; he found seven themes for past leaders and six themes of future leader traits.24 With various lists of desirable leadership capabilities identified, there seems to be a dearth of effort in connecting them to leadership development. More important, the survey method and data analysis demonstrate a workable way for other libraries or consortia to explore leadership capabilities using a set of common vocabulary, with which they can initiate discussion on how leader- ship competencies play out among their librarians at different levels, and to provide basis for further discourse on leadership competencies and leadership experiences relevant to their own context.

     summary: Although these activities, as well as the authors’ experiences and case studies in the literature, suggest possible academic library interest and participation in student financial literacy, there has been limited research on academic library support for this topic. This study is intended to fill a gap in the research by benchmarking library interest and involvement in student financial literacy and the types of support offered.

     summary: Mech reported that 97 percent of the library directors he surveyed had attained a library degree—an almost universal job require- ment at any size college or university in the 1980s.11 Researchers noticed the job market tight- ened in libraries during the 1980s as many displaced, unemployed, or failed academics from other disciplines moved into libraries.12 Consequently, the competition stiffened with more candidates applying for director-level positions in academic libraries.13 Researchers have audited job listings in library trade journals to determine if job require- ments for nonadministrative librarians and library directors were different. He found that the number of library directors at small colleges who held advanced degrees (second master’s or doctorate) increased by the year 2000.

     summary: However, there is a correlation between overall UBorrow and ILL activity and Latin American ILL request volume, with high UBorrow and ILL borrowing volume cor- responding with higher levels of Latin American ILL requests. A clear relationship exists between BTAA Latin American collections and resource sharing in terms of collective collection strengths and ILL borrowing volume and fill rate.

     summary: Overall, while the ethos of librarianship is feminized, masculine leadership qualities are still very much valued, forcing women in leadership to either “adopt practices that are ‘contained within the paternalist state’”15 or be left out of career advancement opportunities altogether.16 It would not be possible to frame research on how gender identities serve as professional resources without engaging in the scholarship of the “Librarian Stereotype.” Methods Rationale We selected qualitative methods because our research objectives require a deep understanding of the professional utility of gender identity and performance.

     summary: Academic library discovery systems also had a higher subjective norm, which means that people who are important to the participants, such as professors, librarians, colleagues, or friends, had a bigger influence on the use of academic library discovery systems than GS. In fact, previous research studies showed that sometimes students use library resources primarily because the course instructor specifically requires them to use it.54 Since it is believed by many that libraries provide more credible and higher quality resources than GS, it is possible that people suggested using library discovery systems rather than GS.55 Participants were also more loyal to academic library discovery systems than to GS.

     summary: Reproducibility of systematic review searches can be improved by reporting the names of the databases searched;27 describing the procedures used for finding included studies;28 reporting keyword searches;29 and reporting date limit- ers.30 Even after the availability of standards for reporting systematic reviews, many authors still failed to properly describe their methods.31 Criteria to Analyze the Systematic Review Searches The Campbell Collaboration has the most developed set of guidelines for conducting system- atic reviews on interventions in social sciences disciplines. Social sciences librarians are equipped with the knowledge and skills necessary to collaborate with social sciences researchers in developing systematic review searches and should be confident in their ability to design and execute a comprehensive search.

     summary: As a reminder, the objectives of this study are to: • Describe current information literacy instructional practices of academic librarians • Identify the most common influences on academic librarians’ decisions about informa- tion literacy instruction practice • Identify barriers to adopting new information literacy instruction practices • Determine if there is a correlation between librarians’ adoption of information literacy instruction practices they have not previously employed and other factors (for example, self-perception of teaching efficacy or institutional culture) In this article, I undertake the task laid out by Celene Seymour in an ethnographic study of information literacy librarians, of “exploring the emotional terrain associated with in- formation literacy instruction and improving this environment,” which in Seymour’s judgment “should maximize the impact of instruction by minimizing negative instructional experiences.

     summary: Web archives are, strictly speaking, all of those willfully assembled and preserved collec- tions of web materials that no longer appear online in real time, and they enable “web history” understood by Brügger as two things: 1) studies of the web itself; and 2) studies that take something other than the web as their primary subject but incorporate web archives as sources nonetheless (15 and throughout). In Brügger’s view, then, such changes should prompt us to reassess “traditional historiographic methods” (7) and to consider the suitability of new research methods to the creation of web history.

Many chapters directly challenge existing structures of power and oppression while noting that women of color librarians are not a monolith.

     summary: The authors note in their introduc- tion that the work is divided into two sections: the first, covering research-based, broad-level considerations of student motivation relating to short-term information literacy instruction; and the second, consisting of lesson plans and activities that highlight specific motivational strategies and pedagogies. Readers should not be put off by this different approach to teaching information literacy instruction; the methods and approaches presented in this book can be directly applied to the one-shot session.

     summary: It included libraries at 15 different institutions.4 Because of the influx of baby boomers, enrollment in colleges and universities was ex- pected to nearly double by 1970.5 Clifton Brock foresaw that rising enrollments would demand much more space for reading rooms and would put a lot of pressure on library services.6 By the mid-1960s, many teachers’ colleges had turned into multipurpose state colleges and then into state universities. ”14 The titles of the first four articles in the January 1966 issue of College & Research Libraries reflect the turn to science: “A Mechanized Circulation System,” “Systems Analysis in Uni- versity Libraries,” “Statistics and Standards for College and University Libraries,” “Systems Evaluation by Comparison Testing.” Thomas Minder contributed an article on scientific library management in July of that year; Frederick Kilgour joined in with an article on systems analy- sis in libraries a year later; and that same month, Paul Spence reviewed a book on scientific management in libraries.

     summary: We note that few studies report on student ebook experience; those that do tend to focus on un- dergraduate students. Supporting student use of ebooks means considering the kinds of scaffolds instructors may need to provide58 and, therefore, the kinds of supports librarians may want to focus on in their interactions with faculty.

     summary: We also find that the requisite skills and competencies for scholarly communication work have coalesced since 2009 in support of a core group that, when the research lifecycle is considered, also support the work of scholars. Although the competencies and skills to support scholarly communication activities in libraries have been codified in several documents (some of which are analyzed in this article), little is known about the growth of scholarly communication work in information agencies.

Sabbaticals or research leave strongly support research productivity, but librarians may not be able to take advantage of that opportunity.18 Beyond formal allocations for research time, additional institutional support may come in the form of formal or informal mentoring, provision of statistical consultants, and opportunities for collaborations within the library or the institution.19 250 College & Research Libraries March 2020 Motivation to Conduct Research Tenure and promotion may be among the most significant motivators for many academic librarians to conduct research; however, they are not the only motivator, particularly after tenure or the highest level of promotion has been reached.20

     summary: For each outcome, I first estimated a regression model TABLE 4 Fixed effect estimates of the relationship between information literacy factors and selected outcomes by class level Higher-Order Learning Reflective & Integrative Learning Perceived Gains   Est. Information literacy has been widely recognized as a critical college learning outcome for decades.2 However, assessing information literacy skills has been difficult for librarians and other assessment professionals, as the conventional methods frequently focus on small samples at or within a single institution, testing knowledge of specific skills, are time intensive (rubrics), or use instruments that have not been psychometrically validated.3 Due to these concerns, instructional librarians approached the National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE) to collaborate with NSSE researchers on expanding the information literacy content in NSSE.4

     summary: The University of Washington’s digital scholarship librarian, Verletta Kern, synthesizes many of the challenges of digital scholarship as a set of “wicked problems” (78) that the insti- tution continues to interrogate: the values, practices, and contexts of the modern scholarship are framed by questions of the library’s purpose, its priorities, its decisions about strategic infrastructure investment, ongoing funding challenges, and a desire to shift institutional poli- cies in support of the recognition of digital scholarship outputs. Chapter authors’ perspectives are informed by their varied positions at the University of Washington library and a complex portrait of digital scholarship appears when their perspectives are taken together.

     summary: Association of College and Research Libraries (ACRL), The Value of Academic Libraries: A Compre- hensive Research Review and Report, prepared by Megan Oakleaf (Chicago, IL: ACRL, 2010), available online at www.ala.org/acrl/files/issues/value/val_report.pdf In 2009, responding to a new level of challenges to academic libraries brought on by the reces- sion, the Association of College and Research Libraries (ACRL) created the Value of Academic Libraries (VAL) initiative and allocated funding for a systematic review of existing literature, resulting in the 2010 Value of Academic Libraries report by Megan Oakleaf.1 To take this work forward, the value of academic libraries became a goal in ACRL’s Plan for Excellence in 2011, with a committee dedicated to furthering work in that area.2 The 2017 publication of Academic Library Impact: Improving Practice and Essential Areas to Research marks the latest milestone for the VAL initiative.3 The report, prepared for ACRL by a team from OCLC Research, analyzed existing literature in library and information science and higher education.4 They built on that scholarship with focus group interviews and brain- storming sessions with academic library administrators and college and university provosts.

     summary: In addition to the patron privacy statement, the library also created and adopted language that library employees can use at service desks and in instructional or consultative sessions when fielding students’ questions about our collection and usage of student engagement data and personally identifying information (PII), thereby providing a greater level of transparency. Once it looked like we had sufficient partners to make the project viable, the Office of Research Compliance helped the researchers write the IRB application and ensure everything related to the study and protection of student data was in place.

     summary: Oakleaf, Whyte, Lynema, and Brown note a variety of challenges that libraries face when undertaking correla- tion studies or attempting to leverage library interactions into institutional learning analytics efforts, among them data availability and detail, data silos, data storage, and interoperability standards.69 Yet, interest in endeavors of this type continue to grow, with several libraries at the beginning stages or successfully integrating library data into enterprise initiatives.70 The remainder of this report describes a large-scale effort to correlate library interaction data with student end-of-semester GPA and reports on subsequent efforts to create an interactive web form that can be leveraged into institutional learning analytics work. Library interaction data are being added to the Education Advisory Board’s Student Success Collaborative platform for predictive analytics, and the library is now working with the in- stitutional effectiveness office to develop, implement, and populate an analytics dashboard that matches student library interactions with user and nonuser demographic and academic information.

     summary: Data demonstrating the impact of teaching librarians on student IL competencies adds value to their work and justifies the existence of library educational services. Sara Lowe, Char Booth, Sean Stone, and Natalie Tagge evaluated student papers in first-year seminars at a group of small liberal arts colleges and correlated rubric scores with level of librarian involvement in the classroom.26 They found that the higher the level of librarian involvement in the class, the better students’ IL rubric scores.

     summary: We offered this assessment activity during students’ final tutoring session as a second re- flective opportunity in the hope that it would provide qualitative data to contextualize the self-efficacy surveys, but the timing alongside final research projects contributed to a weak response rate, both in terms of the quantity and quality of student writing. We hired two writing and research tutors after the course ended to serve as student research assistants for our assess- ment initiative, giving them further leadership opportunities but also including key student perspectives on the evolution of our assessment design and implementation.

     summary: This study addressed this limitation by surveying and interviewing professional librarians who are directly conducting library impact research, asking about their research experience, their attitudes about impact research, and their response to the ACRL report. This study, sponsored by an ACRL Impact Grant, specifically sought to expand the ACRL Academic Library Impact report, which defined strategic directions for library impact research, largely defined from the perspective of high-level administrators.

     summary: Thinking about this more broadly in terms of the impact on institutions and on higher education, thankfully, many institutions have the resources to be flexible and move classes online. Editorial Work/Life Unbalanced Living in Strange Times Everyone’s personal and professional lives have changed significantly over the past month or so and it feels like real life took a vacation and never came back, leaving us with… whatever this is.

     summary: Academic libraries will vary in the support that they can reasonably offer to parent students; the unique- ness of each institutions’ financial resources, staffing levels, physical spaces, administrative considerations, as well as the needs of enrolled student-parents mean that this cannot be one-size-fits-most. For example, several had had experiences such as being older than the instructor, receiving unwanted attention while pregnant, performing emotional labor to make other students comfortable, coordinating group work with childcare, coming out as the only single mother in their program, feeling out of place and excluded in the classroom and casual conversations, and being unable to relate to peers without similar responsibilities and demands on their time.

     summary: Within the title-by-title selection framework, librarians and faculty are often jointly re- sponsible for book selection. Our results have the potential to improve book selection by exploring the influence of various book and selector characteristics on selection decisions, by assessing whether those decisions are congruent with the college’s book selection guidelines, and by drawing atten- tion to the unique perspectives of librarians, faculty, and students, and to the ways in which their selection decisions differ.

     summary: In a study of international Chinese students’ sense-making of information, Rodriguez found that students assessed authority of information based on an institution’s reputation and rankings rather than content and quality, suggesting that assumptions regarding authority were informed by cultural understandings of information and organization of Chinese higher education.30 Such cultural differences may profoundly affect the way Chinese students grapple with Western understandings of author- ity and its construction within information literacy. This study seeks to fill this gap by investigating and describing how Chinese students understand and articulate concepts of authority within information literacy.

Recently, Quinn Galbraith, Adam Henry Callister, and Heather Kelley looked at 35 years of ARL salary data, as well as the 2014 ARL Salary Survey data, and found that the gender wage gap is substantially smaller in ARL libraries than in the workforce as a whole.28 Starting salary can have a giant impact on the pay gap for librarians, given the nature of wages over time.

     summary: That said, it would be interesting to learn if the insights of the researchers on cultural identity hold up with experience—particularly with factors related to time. There are numer- ous studies on the perception of time which explore various facets and perspectives of time and, in some cases, provide indexes or measures: • Time as linear vs. multi-dimensional • Orientation to the past or future • Time as measurable (or controllable) • Time as finite (and a commodity) • Long-term vs. short-term perspective And many more.1 One of the earliest researchers on cultural identity, Edward T. Hall examined different cultural relationships with time from the perspective of monochronicity—time as linear or finite—or polychronicity—time as more of an external construct that does not dictate life or interactions and events may happen concurrently.2

     summary: Indeed, MacMillan acknowledged that the journalism students in her study of student source evaluation skills may have relied on some “performativity” that prevented a precise and “objective measure” of students’ abilities to evaluate sources.46 In sum, identifying a threshold concept that underlies source evaluation skills can facilitate the development of an assessment of these skills that detects students’ masking and mimicking language. As some of the excerpts from student evaluations illustrate, evaluation accuracy is not guaranteed, even when students provide evidence of their credibility argu- ments.

     summary: This study describes the results of a survey of practicing librarians regarding the adopter category (innovator, early adopter, early majority, late majority, laggard) with which they identify and the relationship of this identification with perceived knowledge and perceptions of AI technology within and outside the library environment. The findings may assist academic library administrators and tech-inclined employees as they aim to garner greater receptiveness among colleagues toward adopting AI technology in their libraries.

     summary: Overall, Matamoros’s book is a good introduction for academic librarians who are in- terested in introducing differentiated instruction in their information literacy courses. For example, he discusses in-class activities for information literacy instruction that require active participation of students.

     summary: The author also recognizes that active learning can change the dynamics of a classroom and offers tips on how to handle the differentiated classroom, including advice on managing increased noise levels and distracted students. While those of us constrained by the “one-shot” library instruction approach may be envious, especially of the ability to develop ideas and work with students for a sustained time, Pashia and Critten point out in the introduction that the credit-bearing course requires significantly more effort due to such things as classroom management and grading loads.

     summary: The Globalized Library is a collection of chapters by a variety of authors, organized in five sections that look at informa- tion literacy for international students, international student outreach, international collections, library services abroad, and international pro- fessional development. The section addresses teaching both homogenous groups of international students and classes with a mixture of international and domestic students.

     summary: In addition, a relationship was found between pedagogy knowledge and teacher identity. Furthermore, research on teacher identity in K–12 teachers suggests that “a teacher’s realization of [their] identity” contributes to a “sense of agency”3 as well as to their commitment to teaching and how fulfilled they are professionally.4 The discussion about librarians’ potential roles as teachers is not new, surfacing as early as the 1940s.5 However, as teaching has become an increasingly large part of many academic librarians’ jobs, it has become difficult to agree with the broad assertions of Glenn H. Brown and others that librarians are not teachers.6 When a significant portion of a librarian’s entire job is dedicated to instruction, it may seem obvious that these librarians are teachers, yet an-

     summary: As a result, certain aspects about how we handled virtual reference questions changed. Of the predominant types of questions asked, research has found that directional questions account for the largest category for face-to-face reference, while reference questions account for the largest category in email and chat.6 Research conducted at an institution employing proactive chat (the type of chat that opens automatically as a pop-up window on library webpages inviting users to ask a question) shows the difference in question complexity between in-person and virtual reference queries to be even more marked.7 Whereas research shows clear differences in question complexity between virtual and in-person queries, distinctions among chat, email, and texting draw less conclusive findings.

     summary: As I write this September editorial (a few weeks before publication), I can’t help but wonder what the world of higher education and of academic libraries will look like when the issue is released. Academic libraries, as they always have, will pivot to engage in whatever environment is needed to provide access to resources and expertise, offer a safe study environment (as they are able), and remove barriers to information (made more difficult with COVID and other recent constraints).

     summary: The qualitative study described in this paper was part of a larger multisite research project authored by Bakker et al. that involved administering a survey regarding attitudes toward and use of research impact metrics across four institutions.33 The broader, multisite study focused on the analysis of quantitative data from all four institutions, while this paper addresses qualita- tive aspects derived from the previously unexamined open-ended survey questions on beliefs, concerns, perceptions, and use of research metrics, focusing on the data from our institution. With the end goal of improving our library’s research impact–related services to better support faculty and researchers across campus, this exploratory qualitative analysis offers a more nuanced understanding of the current landscape of opinion around research impact metrics.

     summary: For example, a 2012 study of the collective print book collections of the US and Canadian mega-regions found that, while all of the regional collective collections were quite diverse in terms of country of origin and language of content, the largest regional collections exhibited the highest proportions of these materials: more than 60 percent of the books in the largest regional collection (BOS-WASH), for example, were published outside the US and Canada, and nearly half were in languages other than English.37 FIGURE 5 RLUK Collective Print Book Collection: Duplication Rates Reflections on Collective Collections 993 An important corollary to the idea that collective collections build out a long tail of rela- tively rare (not widely held) and diverse materials is that the degree of uniqueness associated with a collective collection depends heavily on the scope of comparison. Collective collections have progressed to the point where the concept is now quite familiar, with many examples to point to, and a growing awareness of the wide range of library interests in which collective collections could play an important role.

     summary: The enactment of the Data Protection Act 2012 (Act 843) is largely indicative of the recognition of the growing individual concerns of information privacy and the implications of privacy violation and data breaches for Ghana.34 Major players in the Ghanaian academic library ecosystem want individuals to have greater control over their own personal data, just as expressed in Canada35 and the United States,36 and this probably explains why, overwhelmingly, they prefer that sharing decisions about personal information, circulation records, or internet use records are done with the individual’s consent or when mandated by a court order. Attitudes toward Online Library Privacy The detailed results on general privacy attitudes of librarians and students are presented as a comparative table in the appendices (see table 5).

     summary: In our university, in order for the articles to count fully in research output assessments and the like, in addition to reg- istering the bibliographic metadata, they have to either to be published in full OA journals, as paid OA articles in hybrid OA journals, or uploaded as a green OA manuscript copy in our institutional repository. Evolution of Open Access Publishing In the 1990s, OA journals were typically new journals, founded by independent academics on websites they created themselves, and such journals were not to be found in recognized journal indexes.

     summary: The resulting manuscript guidelines were presented to institutional stakeholders for feedback, went through several rounds of revision, and were ultimately adopted as a requirement for digital project narratives accompanying digital dissertations and theses.4 Faculty and graduate students want to experiment with digital publishing methods in their degree programs, but the degree requirements are often enforced by administrative offices operating outside the realm of research and scholarship. The goal of this study was to obtain and analyze data on the types of digital projects submitted to the library to inform the design of an additional set of preliminary pages for digital dissertations and theses.

     summary: This article discusses current approaches to reporting and assessing library book use, addresses the question of what qualifies as a worthwhile use of library materials, and presents an analysis of four years of COUNTER 4 BR2 ebook reports at a single research institution to explore the reliability of page view-level usage data for collection assessment. And although librarians have long been aware of the limita- tions of circulation data in representing collection use,4 and despite some attempts to measure in-house use,5 the idea that real use was measured by such a commitment on the part of the patron has taken hold and has influenced the view of use data to this day.

     summary: Similarly, New York University Health Sciences Library established a data services team consisting of full-time staff and librarians who split their roles between data services and liaison duties and partner with other nonlibrary campus entities to provide workshops on not only data management but also data visualization, qualitative data analysis, data wrangling, big data analysis, and data capture.14 Likewise, the Data Services division of the Research Commons within New York University’s main Bobst Library offers a “studio” model of support for survey, statistical, GIS, and qualita- tive analysis software and finding existing data sources, in addition to data management support.15 For additional examples of academic libraries with data services support going beyond data management, see the following: Duke University Libraries Center for Data and Visualization Sciences; University of North Carolina Libraries Davis Library Research Hub; North Carolina State University Libraries Data & Visualization Services; University of Cin- cinnati Libraries Research & Data Services; University of Michigan Library Data Services.16 Literature going beyond describing data support services to include evaluation of existing services for insights to inform further development of such services remains limited, perhaps due in part to the relative newness of data services support in academic libraries. These find- ings reaffirmed the need for our library to offer research data services and gave insights for future growth areas for support.6 Library-Provided Data Services Support for Graduate Students: What Is the Nature of the Need?

     summary: Such programs stand to impact Native American students on campus while increasing the need for library services for Native students. For example, the expectation that students go to college to find themselves and gain independence from their families is a distinctly White 418 College & Research Libraries May 2022 middle-class value that contradicts many Native students’ need for cultural connection and desire to give back to their communities.16 To support Native students, several scholars have argued that institutions of higher education need to adopt culturally responsive education practices that further the goals of Native American sovereignty, self-determination, and nation building.17 Building on Critical Race Theory, Brayboy proposed a Tribal Critical Race Theory (TribalCrit), which outlines cen- tral tenets of a framework to address Native Americans’ complex relationship to the United States government and society.18 Based on the primary tenet that “colonization is endemic to society,” TribalCrit articulates eight additional tenets addressing issues such as imperialism, White supremacy, sovereignty, assimilation, liminality, cultural knowledge, and tradition.19 As such, TribalCrit can provide a useful lens for understanding and addressing issues facing Native American students in higher education.

     summary: In more recent years, the literature pertaining to academic libraries’ contribu- tions to academic success (GPA) are steadily increasing such as Ula Gaha, Suzanne Hinnefeld, and Catherine Pellegrino’s study examining the correlations between library instruction and GPA;6 Tiffany LeMaistre, Qingmin Shi, and Sandip Thanki’s investigation of the relationship between library online resource use and GPA;7 and Francesca Marineo and Qingmin Shi’s examination of the relationships between library use sessions and GPA.8 Given that GPA has been widely used in various fields as a quantifiable indicator of student academic success and learning (for instance, in Psychology, Educational Psychol- ogy, and Library and Information Sciences), it is very important to have empirical evidence demonstrating that academic libraries have a positive impact on students’ academic success using GPA. One of the key findings from the 2018 survey was the negative correlation between student library visits and their GPA, although students’ use of library resources (such as journal articles and databases) was positively associated with their GPA.1

     summary: Similarly, Bowles-Terry’s 2012 study concluded that GPA was higher among graduating seniors who had library in- struction in upper-level courses and that student success indicators reflect positive correlation with library instruction when students engage in library instruction sessions throughout their college years.14 In a 2012 study by librarians at Middle Tennessee State University, library instruction was the focus and was compared with student GPA and retention. Data for students who attended library instruction was anonymized and compared to the same data points for students who were enrolled in the English class but did not attend library instruction.

     summary: Therefore, efforts to evaluate the ways students use research guides are necessary to ensure the best outcomes for student learning. Unlike librarians, students do not have a mental model of research that includes subject research guides;2 and, even when students do think of research guides, they often have dramatically different ideas of how those guides should be organized.3 Students expect subject guides to contain subject-specific material, not general content such as links to the catalog or general- ized citation information.4

     summary: In response to declining attendance at library and student help workshops, this research is aimed at determining what we, as providers, can do to encourage students to attend the ses- sions we host. Those factors were topic, duration, month of the term/semester, time of day, ses- sion location, target audience, series status, faculty/departmental buy-in, type of advertising, and incentive and were all considered against the dependent variable of workshop success: Workshop success: the authors deemed a workshop to have been successful if it had five or more attendees.

     summary: The Preface notes that the fifth edition (2020) places emphasis throughout on social justice, services to underserved communities, privacy and intellectual freedom, the shift in focus from library collections to library services, and disinformation and fake news. This book as a whole takes a clear-eyed look at where academic libraries continue to fall short in DEI work and offers a wide array of insights and models to enable us to do better.

     summary: In most cases, authors present a case study of a theory-based intervention from their institution(s) in the context of student success research applicable to that population. This collection brings together research from the library and student affairs fields to present a thorough look at methods for increasing student success among populations with distinct needs and char- acteristics: international, transfer, first-generation, and re-entry students, with international and first-generation populations re- ceiving the most attention.

     summary: In response to RQ3, further research needs to be conducted on the relationship between epistemic curiosity and the quality of student research assignments. Epistemic curiosity is “the desire for knowledge that motivates individuals to learn new ideas, eliminate information-gaps, and solve intellectual problems.”2

     summary: Are university libraries in the United States supporting inclusion and diversity through the purchase of Latin American Indigenous language materials? As indicated in this study, all of the 87 university libraries considered have some represen- tation of materials written or produced in at least one of seven Latin American Indigenous languages. The revitalization of Latin American Indigenous languages started many years ago, but only some university libraries in the United States have taken steps to advocate for preservation, access, inclusion, and diversity through collection building covering these languages and cultures.

     summary: Student reflections from three semesters’ worth of classes were analyzed for content related to each of the six Frames, as well as for areas of enlightened understanding (evidence of crossing a threshold into higher understanding, as first outlined by Meyer and Land, 2003) and continued confusion, with applicability for all instructors trying to incorporate the Frames. By linking threshold concepts to the Framework, we can analyze the content of student reflections to see what thresholds the students have trouble crossing.

     summary: While the sit-ins staged by the Greensboro Four or organizations like Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) might be the most well-known example of HBCU student activism, the truth is that the tradition of protest goes back much further. To support his thesis, Favors explores the themes of second curriculum and com- munitas at seven different HBCUs: the Institute for Colored Youth (ICY) (now Cheyney University of Pennsylvania), Tougaloo College, Bennett College, Alabama State University, Jackson State University, Southern University, and North Carolina A&T State University.

     summary: Studies have shown there has been growth of data ser- vices in academic libraries during the past decade.2 Tenopir et al. recognize some institutions hired specialized data librarians to provide library data services; however, other librarians have found themselves reassigned to this role, with variable amounts of time spent provid- ing data services. Methods For this study, library data services are defined as library services to manage researcher data, whether that is informational or technical in nature.37

     summary: Transparency and access to data, the analysis applied, and the conclusions drawn are part of what defines research.1 Data sharing and data archiving is expected to resolve the reproducibility crisis in research and provide new insight.2 Conse- quently, academic journals and research funders are increasingly requiring research data to be made available.3 Along with requirements for sharing data in academic research, there has been a growing need for new skills for data managers, data stewards, data librarians, and data scientists.4 These new roles are professionals who assist researchers in managing research data, avoiding data loss during the research process, and preparing the data for archiving and pub- lic access.

The instructor and librarian collaborated for five consecutive semesters and continued to revise the course con- tent in response to student feedback from each end-of-semester survey deployed by the in- stitution.

     summary: Whether this is done by uncovering the true histories of misunderstood aspects of open access and scholarly publishing; challenging the inequities, oppressions, exploitations, and erasures inherent in the current system; demonstrating the possibilities for new ways of affecting scholarly communications through case studies and existing alternative models; or advocating for possible futures, in total these essays demand a pause. As an academic librarian firmly ensconced in the niche of library publishing (with its preference for open access), I (and perhaps you) have read a number of edited volumes centering on the intersection of libraries and scholarly communications that examine OA from practical and theoretical angles.

     summary: They note that both faculty and librarians come with inaccurate assumptions: faculty incorrectly assume student skill level and librarians incorrectly assume what IL instruction should entail.18 The faculty librarian collaboration model is the gold standard for most teaching librarians, yet it is one many have difficulty executing. If change in adults is rare, are teacher librarians sticking to what they believe works for IL instruction or do they believe that barriers prohibit them from teach- ing the way they want?

These too are roles where instruc- tional librarians are forced to “do-it-themselves,” as LIS instructional courses (if offered at all) continue to focus on outdated interpretations of the instructional librarian roles.

Literature Review Given that the Framework for Information Literacy for Higher Education sets forth the idea that “Authority Is Constructed and Contextual” as one of its six core concepts, the research team remained interested in exploring student constructions of authority.12 Although most published studies that have examined student source selection have chosen to use surveys or question- naires for data collection, the team also chose to continue its focus on bibliographic analysis of authentic student work.

     summary: Ultimately the final predictions for both the training-data and test-data for each individual model were evaluated using receiver operating characteristics’ (ROC) area under the curve (AUC).26 The AUC scores provided the core performance metric for evaluating the predictive power of individual model formulations. Kohler provides one of the only known examples of analysis using empirical, algorithmic Using Machine Learning to Predict Chat Difficulty 685 methods for modeling and deriving insights from VRS transcripts pertaining to topic-modeling, sentiment analysis, and assigning difficulty ratings.13 Of particular note, Kohler’s research provides concrete examples of successfully using latent variable algorithms (examples: NMF, LDA, LSA) to extract and identify “topics” that manifest in chat transcripts and how these latent variables can be reliably mapped to READ Scale ratings; arguably the most widespread measure of “difficulty” for library-patron inquiries.14 Unfortunately, since Kohler does not clearly articulate exactly how individual VRS transcripts are mapped to the READ Scale or provide any aggregated metrics of predictive accuracy, it is not possible to benchmark future research against Kohler’s work.15 Since the research goals for the current study were not focused on topic-modeling, other methods were identified for the purposes of processing, computing, and modeling VRS tran- scripts.

     summary: Data librarians and embed- ded librarians might use data literacy skills to build learning programs to integrate with the faculty and demonstrate the fruit of their work, to prevent a situation where the outcomes of their work in academia might be imperceptible.22 We have assumed that, since information literacy is one of the conditions for self-efficacy in the workplace,23 then it is also data literacy—as a set of specific competencies that determine an employee’s level of information and communication literacy—that can increase their agency and self-efficacy, which empowers alumni in the workplace. This may also apply to students during their study programs as well as to a postgraduate workplace where data literacy skills might prove useful in career development.

     summary: For example, studies have explored how information literacy skills may vary based on class year, studying first-year college students,6 graduating seniors,7 and incoming graduate students.8 Other studies have investigated information literacy skills of students in specific majors, such as teacher educa- tion students,9 international graduate business students,10 and graduate education students.11 Librarians have also explored student information literacy skills based on admission type, such as transfer students,12 or participation in a specific program, such as an educational op- portunity program.13 First-generation college students constitute another specific group that has become in- creasingly of interest in academic libraries. This finding suggests that librarians should not assume that students in either group are information literacy novices; instead, they should consider preassessing student information literacy skills ahead of instruc- tion sessions to determine the specific information literacy learning needs of their students.

     summary: Indeed, this book pushes beyond the limits of archiving traditions that for many years have defined the discipline and how archivists understand why they do what they do. 774 College & Research Libraries July 2021 The essays are categorized into four themes: accountability and evidence, ethics and education, archival history, and memory. Looking into the past and future of archives, the third section, archival history, focuses on the historical study of records and recordkeeping in different contexts and topographies.

     summary: Katz also addresses the overwhelming whiteness of AI experts, the attempts to address this with calls for increasing diverse representation among AI practitioners, and the ways that exist- ing ethical critiques of AI often end up replicating the very systems they claim to want to fix. This is explicitly illustrated when Katz describes the financial relationship between early AI practitioners (academics in higher education) and the Pentagon and how this cemented AI’s role as a tool for American military and industry.

     summary: Detailed programs and approaches are covered, ranging from library outreach and marketing campaigns, workshops on supporting digital wellness, therapy animals in the library, and wellness support for student library workers. In addition to providing counseling services, colleges and universities have begun to explore other options for promoting student wellness; and, as Sara Holder and Amber Lannon note in this volume, the academic library has become the “logical home for wellness initiatives.”

     summary: The focus on design also elides the massive apparatus of labor and technology that underlies not just the production of maps, but the systems that allow historians to study them now, through map libraries and archives. By limiting the scope of the text to engagement with design strategies and their interpretation by map readers, this volume generally steers clear of po- litical questions related to the selective inclusion and labeling of geographic features, as well as the human costs of colonial occupations and wars enabled by maps (with the exception of American soldiers memorialized through battlefield tourism in the final chapter).

     summary: In 2012, a major report from Research Libraries UK identified skills gaps in nine key areas.21 A more recent work that focused on transitioning library services to support scholarly communication noted, “To successfully address the current needs of a forward-thinking faculty, the academic library needs to place scholarly communication competencies in the toolkit of every librarian who has a role interacting with subject faculty. Another description of these changing requirements is that of “the librarian with more”: that is, one who combines traditional library skills with added knowledge of working with and manipulating data.23 There have been numerous attempts to define the competencies required of library staff working within the area of scholarly communication, including bibliometric work,24 research data management,25 and scholarly publishing and repository services.26 More broadly, this area has been addressed through the development of lists of scholarly communication competencies by major library and information science (LIS) organizations: for example, the Association of College and Research Libraries (ACRL),27 Confederation of Open Access Repositories,28 and NASIG (formerly the North American Serials Interest Group, Inc.).29 Australian Library and Information Association (ALIA), in their foundation knowledge and skills recommendations, has only explicitly mentioned scholarly communication since December 2020.30 Scholarly Communication Competencies 969 To support research and scholarly communication, librarians need to be equipped with scholarly communication competencies.31 While it would be useful if an introduction to these were provided as a part of the formal education and training of librarians, a 2017 UK study of the background of people working in scholarly communication showed that most of these skills were obtained on the job.32 A 2019 literature review by Jaya Raju stated there was “compelling evidence to suggest that LIS schools globally are falling short of meeting academic library knowledge and skills requirements in the fast-evolving area of scholarly communication.

     summary: Those who love print books counter by noting the advantages of print: less distraction, superior navigability, and studies proving greater read- ing comprehension.3 But what is lost in this debate is a crucial, even existential question: Will the academy’s system of transmitting books survive the age of ebooks? If for-profit music labels, for whom intellectual-property protection is paramount and whose primary mission is maximizing shareholder value, can live without DRM, it is not far-fetched to imagine academic book publishers, whose primary mission is disseminating scholarship as widely as possible, also living without DRM.

     summary: A study to ascertain the demographic determinants of quality of work-life of librarians working in various li- braries in Nigeria revealed a relatively high quality of work life in the areas of opportunity for continued growth and security, social integration in the work organization, and social relevance of work. Because individuals have a work life and a personal life, work-life balance is the relationship attained between work that an individual is being paid for and the lives individuals live outside their paid employment.13 It should be noted that work- life balance does not imply equal balance in a person’s several roles; but, where it is achieved, it helps to ensure that “work roles and family commitments are arranged in the most realistic and rewarding ways that can best meet the two fundamental needs.”14

     summary: Regression Analyses by Disciplines Since book usage preferences can differ across different disciplines (for example, scholars in the humanities tend to consult materials in their original form in order to have direct in- teractions with the materials),22 we further extend our analysis to subsamples based on four different academic disciplines, including arts, humanities, sciences, and social sciences. Similarly, we also observe the significant impact of shelf time on book usage preference through the within-discipline regressions.

     summary: The author concludes by summarizing the main issues dealt with in the book, including the fol- lowing points: statistical analyses should answer specific questions; variability exists in any data collected; researchers should understand why they are employing specific formulas and procedures to analyze the data; the communication of results should be as simple as possible; margins of error should be presented to readers; and statistical analysis should be reported clearly, and in enough detail, to make it reproducible. University of Cambridge professor David Spiegelhalter describes how real-life problems are solved with statistical analysis as a way of introducing concepts necessary for data literacy.

     summary: Moreover, academic teaching librarians will reflect on new informa- tion literacy frameworks as they interconnect with instruction, considering the role of the student as an active participant as a seeker, consumer, and producer of information. However, the field still struggles to define what makes a teaching librarian and whether academic teaching librarians see themselves as teachers.

     summary: Mary Cassner, Charlene Maxey-Harris, and Toni Anaya (2011) reviewed ARL library accessibility webpages, discussing the located content of these pages under the headings of general features, services, staffing, facilities, and assistive technology.18 Stephanie Graves and Elizabeth German (2018) had a more narrow focus than the prior two studies, looking solely at whether these pages provided information on library instruction content, including the physical and technical accessibility of library classrooms.19 K.T.L. Vaughan and Stefanie Warlick (2020) went broader again, reviewing accessibility web- pages for the presences of 12 specific content types: statement, campus contact, library contact, AT lab, book/article retrieval, building information, computers and equipment, research help, study rooms, circulation help, resource inks, and video captioning.20 All four studies found that the presence of information within the defined categories was limited. The participants’ responses provided an expanded view into what information accessibility pages could contain to more fully support students with disabilities, including those with invisible disabilities, such as attention deficit hyperactiv- ity disorder (ADHD) and depression, which are some of the more prevalent disabilities within the university student population.5 Armed with insights from that study, and a hope that ARL libraries may have expanded their accessibility webpages in recent years, this study located and analyzed ARL libraries’ * Amelia Brunskill is Information Services and Liaison Librarian, Catherine Lantz is Reference and Liaison Li- brarian, and Kavita Mundle is Electronic Resources Librarian, all at the University of Illinois Chicago; email: abrunsk2@uic.edu, clantz@uic.edu, kavita@uic.edu.

     summary: When scholars seek peer-reviewed and grey literature on a given topic, they have many options for search platforms, and these platforms have differing search syntaxes and algorithms for displaying results that can shift over time without any indication to the user. This source reinforces that accu- rate reporting is needed “to ensure critical appraisal, replication, and updating.19 This tool prompts users to consider ways in which precision could be improved, and this text includes language on phrasing: “Could precision be improved by using proximity operators (e.g., adjacent, near, within) or phrase-searching instead of AND?”20 Users are asked to consider search syntax differences between search platforms.

     summary: This grow- ing complexity of source types may be one of the reasons libraries are fielding an increase in student citation questions.25 • What is the faculty perspective on student citation skills? • Who do students and faculty think should be teaching citation skills? Literature Review Faculty play a key role in teaching, assessing, promoting, and supporting academic integrity, but approaches and attitudes to developing student ability in this area tend to be uneven across and within institutions.7 Mixed messages about roles and responsibilities can start at a policy https://library.nd.edu.au/home/instruction/referencing Citation and Referencing Support at an Academic Library 993 level.

     summary: The Informed Learning scale attempts to address two major issues: 1) demonstrating how IL data can be related to other important measures of student learning; and 2) measuring IL in alignment with recent theoretical advancements where IL is context dependent. Though this research describes an exploratory pilot of the Informed Learning scale, preliminary results suggest that the scale can advance academic library assessment efforts by using contemporary theoretical develop- ments in IL while linking IL data with important measures of student learning. 1014 College & Research Libraries November 2021 Conclusion This paper describes the development and initial implementation of the Informed Learning scale.

     summary: Although the book is organized thematically rather than chronologically, it begins with an overview of the ori- gins of copyright law in the publishing industry, setting the stage for all the complexities we wrestle with today. However, culture is increasingly global, and wealthy Western countries are pressuring others to adopt Western copyright laws even if they are incompatible with local traditions.

     summary: In Republics of Knowledge: Nations of the Future in Latin America, Nicola Miller, Professor of Latin American history at the University College London, offers a two-part book addressing the history of knowledge in Spanish America from independence in 1810 to 1910, when govern- ments understood the importance of access to public knowledge as a key feature of modern nations. Chapters 8 and 9 reflect on the changes in Chinese international students’ lives after study- ing in the United States and debunk the myth that they come to the United States to study and migrate.

     summary: The remainder of the book focuses on three major themes: “Histories and Landscapes” (email’s technical and historical foundations); “Affect and Labor” (exemplified through both institutional email and email lists); and “Archives and Publics,” which relates how email constructs, comprises, and interacts with the public sphere and cultural landscape. While bureaucracy is commonly viewed as reducing emotion or affect, Milne describes a slippage from the conventional register as “bureaucratic intensity,” wherein affect bubbles to the surface in work email in ways that are in hindsight recognized as unacceptable.

     summary: Bailey traces the impact of misogynoir including hypersexualized descriptions of Black women that have existed since the country’s founding, the mockery of minstrel shows, the subservient mammy stereotypes and “welfare queens” of mainstream television, and more recent representations of Black queer folks from the web. Moya Bailey is known for coining the term “misogynoir,” defined as the “particular venom directed at Black women through negative representations in Media” (xiii).

     summary: Academic freedom can be informed by a number of other factors—for example, if there is an institution or a state where labor is strong, collective bargaining has an impact on the reach of academic freedom and its protections. In this the first issue of the 2022 year, it seems timely to address a topic that is uppermost in the rhetoric around high education—and at the center of my commitment to higher education: academic freedom.

     summary: This paper seeks to address this gap by drawing upon literature from LIS, anthropology and human computer interaction to interrogate library UX. Concluding that both concepts reproduce the library as a space where “belonging is constructed around whiteness”3 and being able-bodied, we advocate for a critical turn in library UX, one that would result from a deeper engagement with user-centered theories that emerge from LIS as well as critical and feminist perspectives on practice, embodiment, and power.

     summary: The study sought to evaluate whether, and to what extent, the presence and student utiliza- tion of personal librarians affect information literacy–related academic outcomes and student confidence with information literacy skills. Literature Review Personal librarian (PL) programs, in which librarians regularly reach out to an assigned group of students to serve as a one-on-one contact for library information and research support, have existed in academic libraries at least since 1984, when Sam Houston State University in Texas launched its program.2 In the decades since, dozens of academic libraries have piloted or implemented such programs.

     summary: After preliminary analyses, qualitative data were then gathered through focus groups to provide more robust insight into quantitative findings.36 Using this method, the study underwent an iterative process of refinement and reflection for including the lived experience into the assessment.37 Nitecki and Simpson’s theoretical framework for library spaces also guided this study, which posits that the higher education context and physical design of the built environment influences the individual student.38 The built environment, by satisfying psychological needs and promoting productivity and focus, can influence individual behaviors and cognitive functioning.39 Ultimately, for an informal learning space to be successful, it must satisfy the affective and emotional conditions in which learning can occur. Understanding core contributions of academic library spaces is more important than establishing its users’ satisfaction; within higher education learning organizations, a task hi- erarchy is explicit, and fostering environments in which students can best engage with their coursework should be perceived as the main priority.

     summary: While support for teaching critical thinking skills in library instruction has grown, the relationship between information literacy and critical thinking remains unclear. Some participants noted that critical thinking extends beyond information literacy skills and wondered who else is responsible, in a formal capacity, to ensure that students develop critical thinking skills.

     summary: The main objective of this project was to identify a new platform of library research services. Restructuring efforts at University of Arizona15 and University of California, Riverside were among those seeking to intensify involvement in research projects, data management, dissemination, and measuring impact.16 As a touchpoint for services, research commons spaces began to emerge along with digital humanities and digital scholarship centers, focused on research support and development.17 Lippincott, Hemmasi, and Lewis documented develop- ments in digital scholarship centers including their service and spatial attributes.18 Technological change has driven innovation; as early as 1999, Deckelbaum identifies GIS as a potent analytic tool for research problems across a broad array of disciplines.19 A 2007 Association of Research Libraries study describes developments in e-science and team science with implications for practice.20 Horstmann and Brase articulate libraries’ roles in data-intensive research combining theory, experiment, and simulation.21 Sustaining this infrastructure is a challenge, prompting new campus partnerships and resource strategies linking collections and computational capacity expenditures (Orcutt, Davis, Raschke).22 Library embeddedness in research projects is taking new forms in areas such as research reproducibility23 and sys- tematic reviews.24 Fernández-Marcial and González-Solar offer recent case studies on models for library-research engagement.25 Partnerships with Research Administration Relationships between libraries and research administration are less well examined.

Other out- standing surprises include a panoply of amusing images—early advertisements depicting men jumping into open filing cabinet drawers to demonstrate just how well-built a particular cabinet is, disembodied and shapely hands caught in the act of opening a file drawer (sex, as always, seems to sell), ridiculous cartoons—and even a poem gently mocking secretaries making filing errors while distracted by the thought of after-work dates and other frivolities.

     summary: More specific to librarians is Beller’s contention that the business-as- usual of racial capitalism and the world computer are insufficient for survival and revolution. As a result, derivative conditions can be manipulated and turned to the profit of racial capitalism itself as “categories of social difference function…as wagers on the economic value of their underliers and as means of structuring risk for capital” (7).

     summary: Although the current term of choice is collections diversity, concerns with how to rep- resent diverse voices have deep roots in the practice of collection management, and, in some cases, there are codified methods intended to promote the collection of opposing views on controversial ideas.2 The themes in the LIS literature show a general evolution from the idea of collection diversity supporting intellectual freedom and anticensorship to more contempo- rary discussions that tend to focus on the characteristics of authors included in collections.3 Changing social and political climates during the last four decades have likely contributed to this shift, as well as the recognition that factors beyond materials acquisition (such as who is considered a legitimate knowledge producer and trends in higher education and the publish- ing market4) both contribute to and constrain collection development. On the contrary, we argue that diversity as it relates to library collections is an ongoing pursuit that requires critical engagement with developing areas of scholarship, emerging social justice issues, and critique and re-evaluation of methods.

     summary: As happened with the number of sources students cited, findings suggest a correlation between more dedicated ILI and students’ selection of sources that better supported their topics. This approach also allowed researchers to unearth granular differences in students’ work in response to the different modes of ILI students had received.

     summary: Interestingly, there was a statistically significant difference for discipline faculty who contend that the content was not relevant to their discipline. Given that there is some evidence that faculty believe students’ search skills are at least adequate while concerns about their ability to evaluate information persist,39 faculty may feel little impetus to invite librarians to their classes if they anticipate the instruction will focus mostly on searching.

     summary: There are many issues and considerations connected to this work, and additional research is needed, particularly regard- ing how engagement with local community collections impacts student learning. Library leaders can promote university-community engage- ment and knowledge diversity by incorporating local community knowledge into their collection development commitments and practices and tying this work to the parent institution’s strategic plan.

     summary: Foremost were student groups specific to LGBTQIA+ students, Afrekete and Safe Space, as well as alumni who had participated in those groups. In April 2018, during the data collection phase of our study, LGBTQIA+ Spelman students received hate mail slipped under the doors of their dormitory rooms.30 These incidents spurred the creation of the #SpelSafe hashtag on Twitter and Instagram, where current students contextualized the harassment and where Afrekete posted a list of demands for Spelman administrators.31 Additionally, in July 2019, while writing up the results of our study, a Morehouse employee was placed on unpaid administrative leave pending an investigation into claims about sexual misconduct with LGBTQIA+ students.

For example, if a respondent selected “no” to the question on involvement in knowledge synthesis reviews, then they did not see the questions about the review steps in which they had been involved.

     summary: The anthology of 12 contributed essays proceeds to answer the question posed, explaining the difference between community engagement as a discrete concept and the sorts of positive community relations that a library should always already pursue. While library practice is often concerned with playing a positive role in community members’ lives, sustaining and nurturing the formation of healthy social bonds and promoting information literacy and knowledge creation, community engagement is a discrete concept that denotes giving com- munity members a more active voice in determining what those library processes look like.

     summary: This is a broader story of a neoliberal urban development playbook that persists across locales: cities recruit largely white tech start-ups through tax incentives, real estate developers advancing gentrification create spaces that appeal to those workers, and— finally—public service institutions are recast in tech’s image, charged with remaking the city’s populace into entrepreneurs fit to compete in the information economy. Draw- ing on ethnographic fieldwork conducted between 2012 and 2015 at three organizations—a tech start-up, a public library, and a charter school—he tells a story of public institutions adapting to dwindling state investment by embracing simplistic technological solutions to inequality, even when those who staff them seemingly know better.

     summary: With the third edition of The One-Shot Library Instruction Survival Guide, Heidi Buchanan and Beth McDonough, both research and instruction li- brarians at Western Carolina University, have provided LIS students and early-career librarians with a concise and useful handbook for the creation of successful information literacy instruction sessions. Acknowledging but not engaging in the debate over the value of the “one-shot” instruction section versus credit courses or content embedded in the curriculum, the authors note that the one-shot “remains the reality for most libraries” (2) and recognize that new instruction librarians need guidance in designing what is likely to make up a large percentage of their instructional respon- sibilities.

     summary: For these reasons, Wiegand contends, school libraries did not encourage reading for pleasure, or school libraries as social spaces, as much as they might have done. In this book, we benefit from a treasure-trove of material about school libraries that Wiegand has accumulated through five decades of research on other topics.

     summary: This review of science fiction features two groundbreaking New Wave science fiction publications in the book’s title: the magazine edited by Michael Moorcock, New Worlds, and Harlan Ellison’s Dangerous Visions short story collections. The authors address how science fiction sought not only legitimization as literature but also transformed into a commercialized multimedia industry.

     summary: Throughout the book, Cech notes how the demand and opportunity to have passion for our work has grown and shifted due to changes in industrial life, the expansion of white-collar labor, technology shifts, gendered-labor shifts in the workforce, and how Americans view work. The book never really answers the question of whether passion seeking in work is bad, and I don’t believe that is Cech’s goal.

     summary: By interrogating the ways in which Black women and Black feminists have continually engaged with technology, Steele proves that “Black feminist thought work has forever altered digital commu- nication technologies” (8). Considered within a framework of capturing, publishing, and threading and stitching, Steele discusses how, over time, Black women have navigated the conflation of public and private selves in the process of producing Black feminist work.

     summary: In discussing race and feminist care ethics, Parvati Raghuram stresses how efforts toward care are typically theorized through the normative white body, and be- cause of this, “[require] that care is disassembled as well as put together as a critical practice in order to shape care ethics” (2019, p. 631). Temporal diversity—other worlds outside of hegemonic linear and capitalist timescapes—does exist, and we must consider different experiences and perspec- tives in how we view and value time and the one-shot.

     summary: Analysis of the interview data showed themes of organizational acculturation with one-shot train- ing, empowerment/disempowerment to employ different instruction models, and the tension between the transactional and relational nature of library instruction. Histori- cally, the practice of library instruction was shaped to meet the rising information needs of university students but always as a supplement to the students’ curriculum, not originally developed to stand on its own as a course.

     summary: Information literacy teaching, a form of gendered, affective labor that facilitates the develop- ment of students’ academic skills and subjectivities, serves to reproduce the academy itself.72 Librarians are nonetheless challenged in their efforts to embed information literacy into the curriculum because it is commonly seen as remedial or transactional, a service carried out for the benefit of both the teaching faculty and students.73 Supporting the institution’s educa- tional mission is demonstrated through processes of counting and accounting that focus on information literacy events as statistics (classes, consultations, reference transactions) rather than student learning or engagement. We find that information literacy and diversity one-shots emerged within the neoliberal turn in higher education and share a common philosophical foundation in liberalism and a belief that educated publics will come to consensus in the interest of the social good; they are based in narratives of individual deficiency, empowerment, and self-work.

     summary: Also, it is important to make a distinction in labor studies between employer-led flexibility (that is, imposed flexibility) and employee-led flexibility (in other words, autonomous flexibility), with the former demanded by others and negatively correlated with work-life balance and pay and the latter honoring individual choice and generally beneficial for workers and retention of employees.11 Therefore, to fully understand one-shots in neoliberal universities, we need to critically examine manifestations and perceptions of flexibility in library instructional labor. The biased perception that feminized flexibility could undermine masculinized profes- sionalism in one-shots may lead to imposed flexibility as it fuels the narrative that instructors of one-shots are less professional and do not require autonomy.

     summary: Application of relationship and relational thinking to academic librarians’ work as educators has gained traction in recent years, yet the concept of teaching and learn- ing as a relationship remains one that we idealize in librarianship as occurring only through longer-term experiences like teaching credit-bearing courses or becoming embedded in classes for the duration of a semester or quarter.3 The one-shot—a one-time-only information literacy or research workshop that takes place within the context of faculty-led courses—is seen as a consolation prize: ineffective, exhausting, tacked on, and demoralizing.4 However, there are one-shot classes or workshops that leave us, as librarians, feeling connected to students and faculty, deeply moved by the learning that has happened in the last hour or two (and in the hours of planning before the class even occurs). We contend that the difference is a feeling of connection through growth-fostering teach- ing and learning relationships, where we have changed or been changed by others, whether they be students, instructors, or both.

     summary: Qualitative data from zines also offer both librarians and students a profound understanding of how BIPOC students construct their scholar identities and act as counternarratives to epistemic white supremacy. But our commitment to BIPOC students inspires us to “teach to transgress” (hooks, 1994) when we bring our own valuable knowledge into the one-shot session, which includes sharing scholarly contributions of BIPOC scholars and normalizing speaking Spanish or code switching in the classroom (Quiñonez & Olivas, 2020).

     summary: As a result, we would design and lead information literacy through a combination of opportunities such as teacher-training programs and instructional consulta- tions intended to build scaffolded research assignments; librarian-faculty collaborations that prioritize the transferability of knowledge while honoring and disrupting disciplinary ways of thinking; and learning objects that provide an intentional structure for sustaining information literacy at our institutions. Focusing our instructional energies and intentions on student learning rather than librar- ians’ teaching frees us from defining our instructional impact with basic metrics and allows us to work toward curriculum-integrated programs in which we are positioned as facilitators rather than the keepers of information literacy.

     summary: Each section includes ideas that can be implemented at many libraries alongside suggestions that challenge how libraries operate in their communi- ties and how we educate a new generation of librarians. This book contributes good ideas and crucial questions to carry on conversations around promoting sustainable libraries, while addressing the three bottom lines of sustainability that the ALA has adopted as a value.

However, when it comes to research, nothing will capture our focus and attention as much as research- ing a topic that has personal significance to us.

     summary: Such delineations do not accurately correspond to work tasks or exempt status for the purpose of salaries; furthermore, we believe these delineations further contribute to class segregation in library work. Disembedding background work through the homogenization of diverse library work not only makes the financial differences among various tasks invisible, but essentially eliminates the ability to communicate the diversity of library work to stakeholders.

     summary: While the book encourages the use of counterstories, it does offer much guidance around the tensions that may emerge when members of the majority work with marginalized stories. The value of Once Upon a Time in the Academic Library: Storytelling Skills for Librarians lies in its practical suggestions to improve the student’s expe- rience with and knowledge of the library and their information literacy skills through the use of stories.

     summary: Lorde immersed herself within the “information infrastructure of libraries,” but took the full-time “turn to poetry to augment the aspects of professional library infrastructure that she found inadequate to her work” (54). (151) Firmly believing re-envisioning the relationship between institutional policies and private collections holds possibilities for redefining broader cultural values (that is to say that better understanding and acceptance of the fringe areas—Anarchist/occult leanings—at which these poets and their work operate might lead to direct societal change across-the-board—away from current capitalist, neoliberal global hegemony), Kinniburgh doesn’t shy away from acknowledging her com- mitment to elevating the political and social aspects at play within her research: the crux of my argument: that poets’ libraries are not just book collections but are rather a distinctive type of archival collection that reflects a poetics of information.

     summary: Among the former, the library of the University of Michigan was most important, and it would furnish the primary track for Google’s efforts to digitize library books. On the backends of their systems, in the interstices of their workflows, and on the front lines of their services, research libraries depend on and deploy any number of the company’s apps, tools, and projects, to say nothing of the consequences and influence of Google search itself.

Considering many facets of professional service, such as internally to the library, university-wide, to service in professional organizations on local, regional, national, interna- tional levels, I’m sure there are other types of professional service I haven’t even thought about.

     summary: Results were geocoded and maps were created of each student’s day.15 GAC’s own study on student research experiences in spring 2018 included interviews, a mapping activity, and photo diary.16 In the literature, collaborative ethnographic projects take one of two forms: studies conducted across a multicampus college or university system, and studies conducted across Conducting a User Needs Assessment through the Consortia 71 multiple independently functioning universities. With limited resources, these schools often lack the opportunity on their own to conduct student behavioral research, particularly observational approaches such as ethnography, that can provide insights beyond mere numbers.

     summary: Literature Review The literature of library systems work consists primarily of retrospectives of system setup or migration, speculations on future innovation, and surveys gathering data to define job requirements for the educational needs of a systems librarian.6 Even Ojedokun, Olla, and Adigun’s highly concrete retrospective on seven years maintaining a Koha system returns in its analysis to the subject of implementation.7 Yet a literature of systems maintenance can be assembled by identifying recurring themes across retrospectives and survey-based research. While collaboration is a core element of systems maintenance work, Indispensable, Interdependent, and Invisible 129 listservs and cross-institutional support play a smaller role in collaborative communication than anticipated.

     summary: In Dotson and Frank’s study of civil engineering, computer science, mathematics, and physics dissertations, up to 4.2% of the citations were preprints.14 The lack of formal peer review is an important characteristic of preprints and the key differ- entiator between preprint articles and journal articles. PeerJ’s webpage reduced the number of preprint cues from seven to five and increased its peer-reviewed cues from two to four (figure 6).

     summary: Though not advocating for leniency for sex offenders, Vogler takes some care to point out that courts tend to value evidence stemming from prob- lematic tests like polygraphs and penile plethysmographs as “objective” measures of sexuality. The introduction establishes the book’s focus on two specific legal settings in which courts are called upon to “determine” a person’s sexuality: LGBTQ+ asylum determinations in US immigration, and the evaluation and carceral placement of sex offenders, largely alternat- ing between these two settings chapter by chapter.

     summary: Focusing on differences in actual internet use allows us to depart from the simplistic dyad— internet access, yes or no?—and look at a much more complex matrix of unequal skills and other inequalities we find in actual use of the Internet—for work, health, social and societal connection, and recreation. As we would Book Reviews 165 expect, the consequences of inadequate internet skills impact all aspects of modern life, among them health management, job prospects and job performance, social connectedness, creative output, participation in the political process, and (of course) academic achievement.

     summary: The Textbook Affordability Committee surveyed stu- dents (2019) and faculty (2020) to understand the extent to which textbook costs may be a problem for ISU students. Their specific concerns 190 College & Research Libraries March 2023 were that the students would only have access to the texts licensed via the pilot project during their time as ISU students.

     summary: A re- cent study by Sula and Berger focused strictly on DH courses taught in LIS schools, but it did not focus on the content of the courses.5 Meanwhile a study by Walsh et al. did analyze course content through course descriptions and syllabi in iSchools but focused only on courses where the title included the words “digital humanities,”6 an approach that, in addition to excluding non-iSchool programs, could potentially exclude courses working with specific methodologies or tools. Furthermore, studies by Zhang et al., as well as by Sula and Berger, revealed the paucity of DH courses or training in most LIS programs.27 While the rise in DH librarian positions and the high demand for DH-relevant skills is fairly recent, the LIS field has been aware of the impending need for training in this area for a while.

     summary: Naturalists’ combination of observation, description, and reading generated a range of note-taking techniques—loose-leaf manuscript reading notes, paper notebooks, and commonplace books—designed to augment the memory. In The Information Revolution in Early Modern Europe, Dover argues that early modern Europeans placed greater emphasis on information management in the face of increasing amounts of data, which were piling up in mounds of paper in both bureaucratic and personal settings.

LIS Journals’ Data Sharing Policies In his article examining open data policies among library and information science (LIS) jour- nals, Brian Jackson (2021) observed that those journals published by large commercial publish- ers are more likely to have a data sharing policy when compared to small independent LIS journals because the large publishers had already adopted the policy and had ready-to-use author instructions for their LIS journals.

     summary: Regardless of the assessment method used, the authors emphasized that “without a shared vision and plan for diversity collections in place, differing opinions on how to increase the number of diversity-related materials in the collection may lead to libraries missing the mark when building collections” and institutions risk not building truly diverse collections due to chaotic or ill-aligned collecting policies and vague value statements.11 Increasing diversity in archives and special collections also requires a thoughtful and deliberate approach to collecting.

     summary: Giullian and Monroe-Gulick analyzed publications by faculty in Slavic and Eurasian studies at the University of Kansas and found that even though the topic of study was closely linked to other languages, English sources made up 76 percent of book citations and 85 percent of journal citations.15 A recent analysis of East Asian studies by Li found that only about half (53 percent) of citations in doctoral dissertations were to East Asian materials.16 Citation studies of humanities fields where literature in a foreign language is not the topic of study have found that humanities scholars in general do cite foreign language sources, but that the rates vary widely by discipline. Previous studies have found that, after English, German is one of the languages most frequently cited by American humanities scholars, regardless of discipline.6 In addition, because scholarship practices in the United States are similar to those in Germany,7 it is unlikely that a different culture of citation learned from foreign sources would influence German studies scholars.

     summary: However, this mirrored opposition obscures an important distinction between information literacy and creativity: like literacy, creativity is a skill one may learn or a disposition one may cultivate, but it is also an activity of creative production, one that invites libraries to adopt a wider and more systematic view of their efforts to foster, and perhaps measure, creative productivity.90 Such an approach would not only inform the design and assessment of activities and workshops in which creativity is encouraged, but would also assist librarians across departments in coordinating services that are less recognizably linked to information literacy instruction. This paper argues that despite the increasingly capacious, critical, and anti-oppressive nature of information literacy (especially as outlined by the ACRL Framework for Information Literacy), a companion concept of information creativity could offer a distinctive means of fostering both individual human flourishing and forms of multicultural liberal democracy that can support progress toward social equity and justice.

     summary: In the digital age, texts that prove crucial to queer self-formation include not just commercially published literature or narrative pornography but everything “from story archives and self-published pornographic novels to promotional materials cre- ated by performers, the erotically elaborate profile text of apps and cruising websites, and the narrative captions appended to pornographic images on micro-blogging platforms.” The author convincingly argues that the literary gay fiction that blossomed after US obscenity laws were successively struck down be- tween 1957 and 1966 had to contend with the concurrent proliferation of gay pornography, either by distancing itself from pornography’s crassness, or by freely incorporating explicit pornographic tropes and fantasies to serve their narrative ends.

     summary: However, in reality, they have to consistently navigate ever-changing, complex waiver systems that their peers in the North do not, so true equity regarding this kind of OA publishing remains elusive.51 Even if researchers were well aware of the availability of waivers, the fact that they have to be utilized is patronizing and perpetuates the idea of science as a commodity rather than a public good.52 Northern scholars have even sug- gested that commercial publishers can waive APCs in low- and middle-income countries without much loss in revenue, considering the gains that would be made with published research in the areas of life expectancy, health, and education.53 The complicated structures around waiver systems—from knowing about their existence to the actual discount being offered—continues to favor commercial interests instead of the interests of Southern researchers.

     summary: Observations of student learning within this study show engagement with both metacognition and transfer learning when facilitated and guided by reflective pedagogy. Collaborative teaching practices between instructor and librarian, pre- and post-tests measuring effectiveness of active learning, and both qualitative and quantitative assessment to understand student self-efficacy before and after library instruction are just a few representative studies that have influenced the design of this study.2 Further, these studies not only center one-shot events as an object of analysis but also demonstrate the critical work that librarians are doing to create meaningful and effective learning environments within this traditional library instruction context.3 Reflection as a pedagogical approach to library instruction facilitates both the design and structure of the library instruction session, as well as the creation of assessment materials to capture student learning in the classroom.

     summary: Conclusion The findings of the present study of USAL journal article publishing patterns for 2013–17 documents USALs’ productivity, how their productivity compares to earlier periods studied, change in the journals where USALs publish, the growth in individual productivity and coau- thorship, and which U.S. academic libraries are most productive. There is evidence that the proportion of journal articles about topics and perspectives relevant to USALs’ practice has declined.33 Individual journals reflect that change too.

     summary: Purpose: To ascertain what open access journal contracts can tell us about the state of open access publishing. Our results suggest that open publish- ing practices vary widely across open access journal publishers at a global level, and there are a number of discrepancies and inconsistencies being used in practice that run counter to the open access ethos.

To discuss student loan debt and racial injustice may seem to be disparate conversations, yet these two crises in our society are so ubiquitous that they feel like the water we swim in. For Black students working to attain a secure future, college education comes with the higher hidden costs of trying to understand and navigate complex systems involving edu- cational loans and myriad repayment plans.

     summary: While the chapter primarily focuses on the case study of building RDM services in STEM disciplines at Penn State Harrisburg, the broader lessons in this chapter would be applicable to librarians in any discipline who want to partner with faculty in order to expand library services based on the research interests and needs of their constituencies. Academic librarians of all experience levels and in a wide variety of roles will be able to find something relevant to their work.

     summary: Connecting back to an initial observation, the editors communicate that the target audiences for the cookbook are “reference librarians, subject specialists, or information literacy librarians” who are often relied on “to provide and promote data literacy instruction” (vii). As information types expand and exposure to all of this information continues to increase, students will benefit from learning data literacy skills to succeed in their studies and future professions.

     summary: In our field these include the presence and suppression of HBCU library schools, the need for Black librarians to break away from ALA and form the Black Caucus of the American Library Association, the courageous efforts of Black library workers who carved out paths to library access and librarianship, and those who defied U.S. Jim Crow apartheid by mounting library sit-ins. This provocation prefaces Givens’s thesis on Woodson’s “fugitive spirit” in Black education.

Other Responsibilities N o t only has the library been pressed into service on these different fronts, but in the past twenty-five years it has in many instances become responsible for training students in bibliographical method and the use of libraries, and for the direction of library schools with curriculums covering all phases of library work leading to the A .

     summary: T h e r e should always be opportunities for superior li- brarians who have obtained their equip- ment through experience to become university librarians, and even for trans- fers from other fields if special, uncommon qualities are desired or if the library pro- fession cannot interest and train just those whom the universities want. I would urge emphasis for university librarians on the extension of reference work into periodicals, society publications, documents and particularly printed bibliographies, while in cataloging it might well be explained even to be- ginners that our card catalogs were just the best available present device for mak- ing known the contents of libraries; that for large scholarly libraries there were valid criticisms against the dictionary card catalog on the score both of its complexity in use and of its cost; that much subject work is likely in the future to be done through reference to printed bibliogra- phies; that the rapidly developing arts of photography and cheap mechanical repro- duction may within the professional lives of our students bring back the printed catalog in new forms, with cards necessary only for supplements; that classifications, particularly in the biological and physical sciences and in what some optimistically call the social sciences, being concerned with the literature as it now exists, must go out of date, become inadequate, as that literature, geared as it is to the sub- ject matter and its treatment, changes.

     summary: i s , in my opinion, does not necessarily indicate a need for more atten- tion to library school training for such positions, but rather to the need of ( I ) bringing into university library work peo- ple of a higher level of ability with a better and different kind of general education, ( 2 ) thorough professional training for the entire professional staff, and ( 3 ) more op- portunity for intensive experience in posi- tions of some responsibility in various departments of the library. Having pointed out what I have come to look upon as a serious problem in the recruiting of library school students who wish to go into university library work, I must hasten to add that I do not mean to classify all students who have to work their way through college as mediocre, though I think the student who is entirely selfdependent suffers a serious handicap in getting the kind of education he needs to make a successful career in university li- brary work.

     summary: IF WE agree that a university library capable of supporting research is one having the major part of the literature in those fields of graduate study offered by the institution, as well as a teaching, re- search and library staff capable of servic- ing it, then we may conclude that there are not more than a score of universities in the United States having adequate library resources to do graduate work in any considerable variety of departments. But he must insist that the fields chosen for graduate study in his institution be supported before giving his approval to their adoption.

There is one paper each on distribu- tion, as illustrated in the personal history of a book store; books and self-therapy; and the teaching of book selection.

     summary: T h e field of reading might be divided into the following four m a j o r divisions: ( I ) the physiological aspects of the read- ing process, ( 2 ) the social uses and effects of reading, ( 3 ) the content analysis of publications, and ( 4 ) the methodology of reading instruction. Adler points out that reading extends all the way up to the bachelor's degree; and that the tech- niques of communication are the first obli- gation of a sound educational program in a democracy which depends upon a literate electorate.9 Conclusion I n view of the changed conception of reading in recent years, of recent research which reveals the importance of the ef- fects of reading, and of the extension of reading instruction up through college, is it not logical to ask w h a t active part the school and college librarian is to play in the f u t u r e ?

     summary: T h e r e have been librarians who demanded silence at the expense of free inquiry, and I suspect an occasional one who has let convenience to the librar- ians be more decisive than service to colleagues in determining policy. T h e r e are some procedures which you will advocate which would commend themselves to your colleagues if they could all know as much as you do about library organization.

     summary: Material Which Should Not Be Re- quested Libraries ought not to ask to borrow: cur- rent fiction; books requested for a trivial purpose; books in print which can readily be purchased and for which there is a natural demand in the library which owns them. Some care may need to be taken, however, to avoid asking libraries of great size to assume an undue proportion of the interlibrary loan burden.

     summary: Randall's Carnegie Corporation survey of college libraries had been in print only four years. Incidentally, it may be significant for the future ad- ministration of college libraries that among the four recommendations made for reaching this desired goal, the section referring to libraries requires that they shall be organized and administered pri- marily for the student's convenience in learning.7 These selections from the literature of the college today, infinitesimal as they are in view of all that is being written, serve to show that T h e gap between American faith in education and satisfac- tion in its results is sufficiently great to give rise to a continual stream of diag- nosis and cures.

This would include special consideration of rural library service, with particular attention to those areas containing one third of the total popu- lation of the country, now entirely without public library service, as well as those areas with nominal, though inadequate, service, estimated to contain an additional one third of the entire population.

     summary: T h e branch libraries are to serve as the bibliographical and reference centers for our staff in each region and are the regional clearing houses for the flow of information and other library functions.
