Current Practices in Public Libraries

摘要

This collection of essays is very much a mixed bag in every sense; the fifteen articles differ considerably in content, style and quality. This book, which is published concurrently as an edition of Public Library Quarterly, includes reports of research, case studies and more reflective pieces. In their introduction, the editor say, "the articles in this collection show the range of interests of public librarians and those who study public libraries today" and this gives a good indication of the diversity of the essays.
